Fantastic Portuguese movie. One of the best ever made in my country. Congratulations to the director António-Pedro Vasconcelos that made his lifetime masterpiece, i think, and to a fabulous cast. Nicolau Breyner and Paula Mora at their best.Breyner proved to be one of the best Portuguese actors of all time.I've also liked the performance of Rui Unas. It was a surprise due to that it was is debut in the film industry.A small detail in the film caught my attention: In the jacket of inspector Malarranha was a small pin of SL Benfica that is a very big soccer club in Portugal and that the director is a big fan, and so am I :).With this film quality people will come more to the movies to see Portuguese films, for sure.

"Os Imortais" is without a doubt one of the best, or probably, the best Portuguese film ever made. It certainly is a landmark on the Portuguese cinema's scene; this movie his worth every minute. Every year, four ex-soldiers that call themselves "Os Imortais" (translated "The Immortals"), get together with four women to celebrate war deeds and to remember the old days, back in the war. On the summer of 1985, tired of their monotonous lives they decide to rob a bank. Joaquim Malarranha, a chief inspector from the local police about to retire, crosses their path and will spend his last days of duty trying to solve the robbery. But has he carries on with his investigation, he discovers more than he could ever think of.A movie that focuses on strange and disturbing actions of ex-soldiers on their attempt to fit in the modern society and to mend errors committed in the past, and on a veteran cop who's about to leave his working-life behind.João Pedro de Vasconcelos managed to assemble a cast with vast qualities; it's a pleasure to watch Nicolau Breyner's performance. The story is very solid and can really catch the viewer's attention; it keeps the anxiety of knowing what really happened during the robbery and the days that followed it."A bandit always forgets that there is, at least, another bandit smarter than him."

I love the movies by the Cohen, and this great portuguese movie just reminded me of them. Why? You know that amazing feature of the Cohen's movies... to pick up or write a story, create a "carpet" (not Dude's one...!) and then put all sort of characters in it, each one unique, each one amazing... In "Os Imortais" that also happens and it's great how all those unique characters deal with each other. Very nice movie, indeed.

A great portuguese movie, with a great cast. Nicolau Breyner at his best. the movie turns around 4 ex-war soldiers, that, after returning home have to find something to do with their lifes. and what better thing to do than rob a bank after a trip to Algarve holiday´s paradise. Some good action and a quiet few scenes of hot sex !! A must...
