The Man Who Copied Ratings & Reviews
Dallas Morning News
Mario Tarradell
The Man Who Copied unfolds into a movie with a split personality, and the second half is no reproduction of the first.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
The script's shifts of tone are never smoothly melded, and the lethargic pacing drags the story out mercilessly.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jeff Strickler
This Brazilian film starts as a quirky romantic comedy before suddenly becoming a violent crime drama. It's a radical turn, so much so that it almost goes over a cliff.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Chris Hewitt
The Brazilian romantic comedy careens down such an elaborately entertaining route that I hesitate to call it a romantic comedy. It's funny all the way, but romance doesn't enter the picture until the picture is almost over.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Even after it loses its way, the movie suggests a world where anything can happen and no one -- certainly not the girl of one's dreams -- is quite who he or she seems to be.
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
Though South American in origin, The Man Who Copied has a universal feel that, language notwithstanding, could be from anywhere.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
Don't let the unwieldy title throw you - The Man Who Copied is unusual, deft and (mostly) delightful
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Remains never better than fair to middling pleasant.
Groucho Reviews
Peter Canavese
An unconventional romance...a complex crime movie, and a jaunty comedy...few will leave this stylish, adventurous film wanting for entertainment.
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
This ambitious and sometimes entertaining Brazilian feature tries to pull off a tricky maneuver but doesn't quite get it done.
Film Threat
Eric Campos
A major letdown.
Los Angeles Alternative
Jay Antani
utterly fresh and appealing from start to finish
E! Online
Gleefully quirky enough that you're glad to roll with all its twists, turns, complications and coincidences.
Los Angeles CityBeat
Andy Klein
...a structural mess and way overlong at a little more than two hours.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Engagingly flawed.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
A big hit back home, this good-humored gem from Brazilian director Jorge Furtado manages to tackle some serious issues without sacrificing its inherently sweet nature.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
The story eventually spirals out of control -- there's much too much happening.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
The movie never recovers from its jarring turn into a rushed, unconvincing caper movie with a blas, Robin Hood attitude.
Newsday
Jan Stuart
Insistently quirky romp from Brazil.
Village Voice
Jorge Morales
About as engaging as a paper jam.
