Back To 15 and is the centrepiece of this new Brazilian teen drama from Netflix, available on the platform from February 25, 2022. This production, in fact, explores a theme already addressed in cinema several times but which is always intriguing: changing the past to look for a better and more fulfilling future. We had seen an inverse operation but with similar implications in the film 30 years in a second, by Gary Winick, and we do not hide from you that this series he reminded us not a little, not only for the themes, but above all for the development of the plot. Back To 15 still remains an overall rather original product that aims at an adolescent and pre-adolescent target, an age in which one cannot wait to grow up, looking at adulthood as something longed for and distant. With these premises we can go into talking more deeply about this story.

Back To 15 Review And Analysis
The narrative of the series is linear, but linearity is an immediate and continuous return to the past. Where will the story go? We didn’t feel that there was much to go back to. Being a short series of 6 episodes, it shows the point of the story in a very fitting manner, right at the center of the story itself. But the series has the perspectives of other characters to help support the story rather than telling only one side of the protagonist like other stories, so it’s fun to watch, not flashy or fantasy. It’s like watching a time-traveling series with the aura of 2006’s past, the concept is just that. The law of going back in time is no different but the fun is it’s a story that’s gradually becoming more and more eclectic, blending with the story of adolescence and love, where there is a thin line between accuracy and perfection.
And there may be reasons that are not true but there are quite a few late periods that are quite sluggish that I don’t want to continue watching. Until reaching the final everything seems to be unravelling and is about to end well. The series also chose to be mean. Ended up leaving it hanging on purpose and make us feel how will it end when leaving enough knots To the point that if I don’t continue, I don’t know what to say, Because the novel has two volumes. If you do not follow the book However, there must be a second season. But I don’t know whether to continue or not.
The main characters are quite interesting and have their own clues that will gradually unfold over time. Anita is a confident, straight-talking, well-spoken woman who does not dare to do anything until 30 years later. She was able to use her knowledge of the future to fix the future until she learned and find what you love. This character must be liked and encouraged by the audience. But at the same time annoyed with bossy Busy with the villagers until they are in trouble Even if it’s the right thing to do, there should be boundaries. But because of her desire to change until she forgets the consequences, Enrico, a black guy best friend who dreams of becoming a musician and secretly likes Anita.
Always supportive of Anita, Carol is a young girl who dreams of becoming an athlete and believes having a boyfriend will make herself feel more meaningful, Warm, oppressive and cynical. She also falls in love with a best friend who doesn’t know if they have the same tastes, Joel. An elusive young man who becomes entangled in secrets and romances with Anita Luisa, a representative of a woman who is expected from her family to the point of her own life. Until her decision changes the future forever. Every character has a story line that is intertwined and affects one another and makes the story more intense.
The issue of many important matters to reflect society on ourselves don’t wait to be you. Don’t be afraid to face you must dare to change yourself. But don’t be so outspoken that you hurt others like a character that inadvertently wounds others. If there is anything, it must be known. Not to hide or lie to make the matter even more escalating. The series also teaches women to be able to be themselves rather than carrying their expectations. Because no one came to rejoice as much as himself it reflects the toxic masculinity of the many teenage male characters who both threaten women. Prejudice against people of all genders even for gay men who dare to press their heads. Don’t let him dare to be himself doing dare to find yourself If not enough support from people around you He may not have a place in society. Besides, being a teenager doesn’t have to be serious. Family can be important. But to live a life that I’m happy Accept and embrace the problem. Never run away. Never give up. In the end, old problems will pass and new problems we will handle smoothly. Don’t wait for the time to pass what do you want to do in a hurry? So that you won’t have to regret late.
In terms of production, good is the visual work that makes a difference between the present and the past that reminds us of 2006’s camera angles with the Netflix series. There is no difference It meets the standards of a series that is not from America or England. The acting of a natural, usable, but less-discussed actor, Camila Kreuz, who plays the role of a thirty-something woman whose life turns so extreme that the script doesn’t really allow it to be portrayed. Even though the show was very good because the script goes down to her youth. Played by Maisa Silva, who plays as someone who is between the ages of 30 and 15 perfectly. While others might not have a lot of interest, even for Clara Castanyo, her role was good in the beginning and then faded away. Although her role It’s a more interesting character, while Antonio Carhara and Cayo Cabral, as the men in the encirclement, look so different in their charms that we can’t even choose who we should end up with. Maybe, with the script there’s not much to criticize the show anyway. So it’s pretty common. Compared to the series’ soundtrack and background music, it’s very nice and good.
It’s a fun series that’s not much fun to watch. Good in terms of content that reflects Brazilian society without effort. Including family, relationships, love, friendship, self-discovery and self-acceptance Use small points to fit the story. Everyone seems to want to be nice to the people around them, but at the same time, they should love themselves more as well. It is a series from countries outside of Thailand, like Brazil, that are well-made and usable. The actors were also very natural and attractive. Although the series is a bit sluggish and slow, there isn’t much to draw in the script even though it’s only 6 short episodes until the very end with a dizzying twist. But it’s still a recipe for success in a time-travel movie based on a book. If you watch this genre a lot, you probably won’t be wowed by it. But if you are bored, have free time, want to see something young and young and want to get up and change yourself, I recommend it.
Back To 15 Review: The Last Words
Adapted from the Brazilian bestseller, it’s a fun, fun exploration of the diverse main and secondary characters’ self-discovery. even though there is nothing new not very interesting chapter And still follow the old movie success formula, but the social issues that are told actor who plays Good music and production are enough to keep the series going. But ended up leaving it to wait for the next season, I’m not sure if there will be another come out to see or not.
