Why watch this film?
Skiing is not one of the most popular sports in Brazil, for obvious reasons, but “Flying High” is the chance to meet a great star of this modality - Eddie "The Eagle". He was the great highlight of the 1988 Winter Olympics and this movie brings all the Olympic spirit of Eddie with a good dose of humor.

Ghosted
There are plenty of stories about spy couples or people discovering that their partner is a spy, secret agent, or something similar -- just look at This Is War! or Mr. and Mrs. Smith. So it's understandable if you feel a bit hesitant when you know that Ghosted (Ghosteado), an exclusive to Apple TV+, is exactly that: a nice guy (Chris Evans) who falls in love with an enigmatic woman (Ana de Armas) and soon discovers she is a secret agent. However, filmmaker Dexter Fletcher (of Rocketman) plays with genre conventions by making a movie that takes things to the extreme, while always letting comedy permeate the story, with great performances from De Armas and Evans. It's not an exceptional film that will stay in your memory forever, but it's hard not to have fun with the story, even if it is conventional.
Rocketman
'Rocketman' combines real history, poetic liberties and fantasy to tell the story of how the shy Reginald Dwight became Elton Hercules John, one of the greatest musicians and pop culture performers in the world. Taron Egerton's performance as the lead is exquisite, as is the period reconstruction and editing - all done just right to combine musical pieces with more dramatic events. The direction is by Dexter Fletcher (producer of 'Bohemian Rhapsody'), and the cast also includes Jamie Bell ('Billy Elliot') and Bryce Dallas Howard ('The Help'). Although the story gets lost among so many memorable songs (especially from the second act), the movie is guaranteed fun for all rock'n'roll fans.
Comedy
Aumenta que é Rock’n’Roll
The film tells the story of Luiz Antônio, a clumsy radio presenter who, unexpectedly, finds himself in charge of a bankrupt and falling apart radio station. Relying only on his passion for rock’n’roll and a crazy team, he created one of the most emblematic radio stations in the history of Brazilian rock, Fluminense FM. Between guitar solos and signal interference, we follow the adventures and misadventures of Luiz who, on top of that, falls in love with a married announcer.
High School Musical 3: Senior Year

Together with the rest of the Wildcats, they stage a spring musical reflecting their hopes and fears about the future and their unforgettable experiences growing up together. Will their final show break them apart or bring them together for the greatest moment in Wildcat history?
17 Again
'17 Again' - What would you do if you got a second shot at life? Class of 1989, Mike O'Donnell (Zac Efron) is a star on the high schoolbasketball court with a college scout in the stands and a bright future in his grasp. But instead, he decides to throw it all away to share his life with his girlfriend Scarlet and the baby he just learned they are expecting. Almost 20 years later, Mike's (Matthew Perry) glory days are behind him. His marriage to Scarlet (Leslie Mann) has fallen apart, he has been passed over for a promotion at work, his teenage kids think he is a loser, and he has been reduced to crashing with his high school nerd-turned-techno-billionaire best friend Ned (Thomas Lennon). But Mike is given another chance when he is miraculously transformed back to the age of 17. Unfortunately, Mike may look 17 again, but his thirtysomething outlook is totally uncool amongthe class of 2009. And in trying to recapture his best years, Mike could lose the best things that ever happened to him.
