Heleno Ratings & Reviews
Behind The Lens
Debbie Lynn Elias
Heleno -- an richly intimate portrait of the man, the myth and the madness of both.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
The script rarely digs beneath the surface of its intriguing subject.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A shallow glimpse into the life of Heleno de Freitas that's anchored by breathtaking black-and-white cinematography and a bravura, raw performance by Rodrigo Santoro. It ultimately nourishes your heart more than your mind.
Film Journal International
Eric Monder
Heleno might have been stronger by better avoiding the clichs of its genre-yet there are still benefits to this stylish work.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
There's just so much one can care about this star athlete and his self-destructive journey.
New York Post
Farran Smith Nehme
What you get instead of soccer is almost two hours of late-stage syphilis.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Equal parts temper and tenderness, lust and incaution, "Heleno" is short on specifics but long on impression.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
Jos Henrique Fonseca's handsome black-and-white, impressionistic bio-drama goes very Raging Bull-ish, to tell a piece of the story of Heleno de Freitas, a Brazilian soccer star with matinee-idol charisma.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
You're stuck daydreaming about a far, far better movie.
Slant Magazine
Nick McCarthy
The film hints at a kicky, impressionistic style that director Jos Henrique Fonseca never effectively employs to actually communicate Heleno de Freitas's demons.
