    An interesting true story about a malleable personality. and the costly mistakes along the winding road to self discovery. Identity is explored and expressed in brisk broad details. Definitely worth a rental!

    It is based on a true story about a kid named Marcelo alias -“Carrera”- who has big dreams of becoming a commercial pilot like his dad. He wants to be a commercial pilot so bad that he learns at a young age, all of the major International Airport hubs by name. But fate would take him down a different path & he ends up at a small (FBO) in rural Brazil. It is there where he earns his wings in an old Cessna-185 tail dragger in exchange for flying out drug shipments across the border for some players in the drug cartel. This movie is very similar to the movie: “Catch Me If You Can” but with a Brazilian flare to it. There are a considerable amount of twist & turns and serendipity seems to follow this young pilot whether he is on level ground or flying below the radar. So, fasten your seatbelts and put your tray tables in the upright & lock position. -“Carrera”- is your Captain & he is flying the not so friendly skies and your final arrival destination is a short and dark runway where anything can happen...

    This was a great film! It may not be well-known but it's an enjoyable movie from the first shot to the last. Don't miss out on this exciting story of one con man's dream to make it big.
  • Nice flick.

    Great movie. The story is about a guy who just wants to be a pilot like his dad. He gets his first break flying for criminals in rural Brazil. He moves on to the civil airline sector where he rises straight to the top. The main character is a really cool and you're cheering for him right to the end. Buy or rent this movie. You won't regret it :)
