How sad is this?
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Princesa Xuxa e Os Trapalhões is one of the best movies of Renato Aragão and his gang. The story, which resembles to Star Wars and other fantasy movies, is about a planet (a chronicle for Brazil and Earth it selves) dominated by Ratã, a conqueror, and where princess Sharon is kept without knowledge of the acts of the tyrant, who expelled the elders and slaved the kids of the kingdom. Now, it's up to three lazy princes and a unnamed and also lazy knight to save the princess, set the kids free and bring down Ratã. With all these elements, Princesa Xuxa e Os Trapalhões is a great mix of fantasy, sci-fi and lots of comedy, with great gags, especially from Didi and Mussum, and a lot of fun, a movie that today still makes a lot of success in Brazil.
