Elize Matsunaga shocked all of Brazil when she was featured in all the news at the time, being judged as a criminal for the murder of her own husband. The reflection that the film brings us has been ingrained in the country since the case actually happened: Is Elize a victim or guilty? Impartially, the film presents a script that shows the main scenes of the case, and not all the events, in addition to prioritizing actors and actresses who resembled the individuals in the real case, not prioritizing acting in the work. Therefore, the film is still a good option to remember the controversial case.

It was about time to remake a film to bring back the nostalgia of those who spent their entire childhood watching He-Man. Revisiting the characters and the beginning of it all for those who lived through that era was simply incredible. For me, who didn't have much contact with the original saga, I found the film to be a good work for those who already knew the story and those who didn't, being a film that reaches countless generations, but especially those who followed the cartoon and the 1987 film.

A boy, a trinket, and a girl: define this work with those three words. By presenting a purely fictional story, the film makes us reflect on whether the story is actually our own, whether it is pure unreality or reality masked by fantasy. The cast's outstanding performances, along with the film's overall setting, make us understand that we are not seeing something otherworldly, but something from our own society: obsession with something and its consequences.
