A great biopic of a great artist

It's not easy to create a biopic without clichés and i believe that this movie was able to tell the history of Ney Matogrosso with verve, soul and energy of this great artist. The direction, script, soundtrack, interpretation, edition, every detail of the movie contribute to the film achievement, with a great result. Maybe Homem com H be the best biopic made in Brazil and deserve to be seen in other countries. I hope for its success, here and abroad. Jesuíta Barbosa is impressive as the main character and the others actors are great. The movie is a emocional journey to the heart of a unique human being.

A whirlwind of music, desire, and freedom

From its opening shot it's clear 'Homem com H' isn't your average biopic. Lush cinematography sweeps us from the misty Atlantic Forest to the tropicalist explosion of the 1970s, bathing every frame in dreamlike light. The costumes-a hypnotic parade of feathers, leather, and sequins-recreate the era without feeling like a fancy-dress museum.The film's greatest triumph is its performances. Jesuíta Barbosa doesn't merely imitate Ney Matogrosso; he embodies him with raw, magnetic energy, balancing vulnerability and creative fury.Director Esmir Filho embraces sensuality without ever sliding into cheap provocation. The hotter scenes are choreographed with tenderness and tact, turning eroticism into a celebration of artistic freedom rather than an easy shock. The script leaps across decades, stitched together by musical numbers that serve as emotional portals; occasionally it trades biographical depth for momentum, yet it never loses its rhythm or exuberance.Ultimately, 'Homem com H' is cinema that pulses-joyful, intense, sensual, and defiantly liberating. One of Brazil's most memorable films of 2025, it leaves you stepping out of the theater with Ney's music in your head. Unmissable.

Fascinating biography of a musician ahead of his time... without puritanism.

The film reveals Ney Matogrosso's powerful vocals and fascinating musicality, presenting us from his childhood in the interior of Brazil to his stardom. Ney is a man who refuses to change his ideas and his way of being to please others, challenging moral standards and shocking conservative society.Unlike other biographies of Brazilian singers (Renato Russo and Cazuza), this film stands out for portraying the singer's romantic relationships without puritanism or censorship. Another strong point is the presentation of some of the singer's most famous songs, all very well reproduced in the film, from the vocals, the flashy clothes (or lack thereof) and unique choreography, everything very well done and quite faithful to what the singer always presented. Highly recommended!
