What kind of movie is the movie "Brazil" with all the strange things happening? Why is it even called Brazil? Why are there strange sets and weird personalities? What is this movie really all about?

“This is your receipt for your husband... and this is my receipt for your receipt.”

It is this quote that perfectly explains the world of Terry Gilliam’s Magnum Opus: Brazil. A world where everything works so well that nothing works at all.

Brazil is first and foremost a satire of Gilliam’s society (1980s). The film asks the question of just how weird the world could become if everything got carried out of hand.

For example, Gilliam noticed a rise of domestic terrorism in the midst of The Troubles and also the ineffectiveness of the government in keeping up with collapsing infrastructure.

So Gilliam, in his comedic genius, combines the two. He asks “What if inefficient repairmen become so normal that a legitimate terrorist action would be to fix pipes quickly? What if something as stupid as that incited terror?”

Or Gilliam noted the corruption of politicians, ineffectiveness of government, and proliferation of information techniques.

So Gilliam, with a brilliant mind for social satire, asks “What if a government typo led to the wrong man being tortured and killed? What if then the government did everything to not own up to their mistake? How much damage could one typo cause in a broken government?”

Or Gilliam saw the Freudian idea of a man loving people who are like their mother and also saw plastic surgery becoming more and more popular.

So Gilliam, in a characteristic bout with dark humor, asks “What if plastic surgery got so good that a mother could look exactly like her son's love interest.”

The strange sets and weird personalities create an uneven tone for the film. The entire movie is supposed to have an uncanny valley effect. Vaguely familiar, yet undoubtedly alien.

So what is this movie all about?

When taking as thematic a work as Brazil, you could never pinpoint everything it says in a sentence. It is saying so many things at once.

Still, I am a slave to the question and will do my best to sum it up:

Gilliam’s Brazil presents an uncanny world where everything in 1980′s Earth is dialed up to 100 and mashed together until nothing can possibly work how it is supposed too.

The film explores how a society’s decadence can lead to its depravity.

Sam’s apartment. There is personality here. Books, in particularly. I wonder what he reads and I need to get closer to see. The film posters clearly influence his dreams. His ideal woman has an early Hollywood star with platinum blonde hair. And generally, films are discouraged in the Brazil society. Mr. Kurtzmann discourages his workers from watching films. Obviously at work, that makes sense, because they’re at work, but any kind of enjoyment is really actively discouraged.

Brazil (1985) dir. Terry Gilliam

I just watched Jupiter Ascending cause I felt like watching something trashy. Boy, they weren’t kidding when they said it was like a teenager’s story come to life.

Despite that, I would’ve taken multiple movies of this over mediocre sequels and unnecessary remakes, even if the protagonist is a living pinball who constantly needed to be rescued.

There was one part of the movie that kinda frustrated me in a funny way which was the whole DMV scene with Terry Gilliam. It felt like a glimpse into a far more clever and humorous movie than the one we got.

It’s definitely because it’s a homage to the movie Brazil, and I was like “Bless your heart, you stupid-ass movie, but you are NOT Brazil.”

If you don’t know what Brazil is, it’s a sci-fi movie by Terry Gilliam that’s kinda similar to Jupiter Ascending in that they’re both about overly beaurocratic governments and the follies of consumerism... except unlike JA, Brazil has witty writing, memorable characters, and great performances from pretty much everyone. JA, meanwhile, just looks nice, has unique concepts drowned out by a shitload of exposition and mindless action, and the few memorable performances are more by accident.

Brazil (1985) has everything! A sweaty, pathetic man. A dirty butch in coveralls. Skeksises with baby doll faces. Terrorism. Ian Holme!
