Minha Namorada Bárbara (2005)

what i liked
-decent cast
-some good running gags
-cute concept (switching bodies with the person you have a crush on)


what i didn't like
-poor execution
-15 minute format made these 7 episodes feel like a short movie.
-a bit too slapstick
-this isn't a spoiler but really gross use of blackface for in episode 5 (most of asia didn't get the memo that skincolor isn't a costume...but hell, most people in the west didn't either).
-goofy music and sound effects


should you waste your time on this?
eh how bored are you? if you're that bored, just read the manga online instead. there are some good gags here but many other dramas do the body swap love story a bit better (secret garden). you're not missing much by skipping this.

i'd like to see what would have happened with a longer format but, you go to war with the weapons you got, i guess.

i started watching this when i was really really bored and during a point that i did not knw what to watch and was like. w/e i'll watch this. it was short too, so i did not mind . however, the extend of how dumb it was clearly surprassed my expectations, by the end of it i simply finished it because i was bored and lazy to start another drama , since even if i did i would have no time to finish it in one day >.> .

the acting was poor. i will not even explain how poor it was, the switch did not even convince me. more importantly the whole "switching bodies" plot device is honestly dumb most of the times that it is used (exceptions: don quixote, since it was not for some silly romantic purpose).

music, i do not even remember it, honestly i doubt i was even paying attention to it. Overall, just dun watch this. it is a waste of time.
