The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Lua Vermelha is a good show with poor ratings. Television is an unfair business. I really think that with other time table SIC television would enlarge the viewers spectrum. It will be difficult but not impossible. This is a young people show, if it go on air after the conventional soap operas ratings will collapse, because older people don't like this. SIC main channel is making lots of mistakes and losing a thousand viewers per day. Ironic... They are "vampiring" themselves with childish errors. To much commercials during the premium timetable and many other wrong decisions from the direction board. It was an excellent channel. Was... Usually Vampires stories are "money in the pocket" but not this "time" ... Abraço Matias.

OK ,this television show is like a bad ripoff of all the vampire series made in the U.S,the script making is terrible ,the acting is even worse and the recording is classic "soap opera" camera shots.You can even notice in the first episode that some scenes are almost exactly alike as the scenes in the beginning of twilight ,especially the scene of Bella spotting Edward during the lunchtime(as much as I hate the Twilight movies as a person with great interest in movies I have to do my research to do my reviews) Isabela(the main girl) is obviously inspired in Bella from the Twilight movies,the poorly acted character is a "weird" girl that comes to a new school Afonso(the obvious Edward) is kid with the other school outcasts ,who happen to be vampires(surprised?) ,they spend a lot of time also drinking a red drink which seems to be a lot like blood (like the drinks in the series True Blood) The story of "Lua Vermelha" then unfolds a lot of drugs,family problems and etc etc, the classic script making for soap operas.The thing is ,as the Portuguese T.V stations already make enough money on the crap they make(especially for teenagers) ,they don't dare and go make something that requires,better script making ,better camera work and better actors(god knows they sometime need better actors).And that is why this T.V show gets 2 out of 10 in my opinion

I saw the premiere and I was astounded by the good production of Twilight...err.. Lua Vermelha. This series is an amendment to the original series, putting good actors on scene and hidden. After the first episode I said: Robert Pattinson, you have a long way to go, to reach such outstanding acting performance. Afonso, you rock!!! I would characterize this vampires as the Portuguese version of Dracula, where they have mustache and sideburns, while drinking red wine as a substitute for blood. Regarding the special FX, 3D is great! I sense the reality all around me. Sometimes I even feel bitten by those vampires when I sit in front of the TV, drinking red wine. When I drink wine while watching this great show, I sense that blood is pouring through my throat.

First of all, I have to say that I don't watch Portuguese TV anymore. Almost the whole day there's a bad soap opera airing... But being a teacher I think it's important to keep up with what the teenagers like, so I started watching this series almost from the first day, and surprisingly I got hooked! It's a mix of Twilight, True Blood and Vampire Diaries all in one. The acting is not excellent but it's improving, for the most part(I don't know what they were thinking with Merche Romero...), there are never before seen in Portuguese TV special effects, and most of all, it's a love story, with adventure and drama in between! The only part that I don't like at all is the bullying... they make it look like it's fun doing that, with lots of cheerful music and laughs all around... not a good message to kids! Apart from that, pretty good series!
