My Mom Is a Character 3 (Portuguese: Minha Mãe é uma Peça 3) is a 2019 Brazilian comedy film written and starred by Paulo Gustavo, based on his play of the same name.
After its release, the film received mixed to positive reviews, with some critics praising its consistent plot that differs from its prequels.
The super mom will have to brace herself and deal with the changes in her life: Marcelina (Mariana Xavier) is pregnant and Juliano (Rodrigo Pandolfo) is getting married.
Dona Hermínia is more anxious than ever, and, on top of that, her ex-husband Carlos Alberto (Herson Capri), who was always around to begin with, decides to move in to the apartment next door.
Tony Goes from Folha de S.Paulo said “The surprise in “Minha Mãe É uma Peça 3” is precisely the plot, much more consistent than in previous projects.“[3] Nocolaos Garófalo from Omelete said “Although it is point to show Herminia's almost total independence from men, with the character inspired by Gustavo's mother traveling abroad, going to parties and having fun with her sister and friends, the plot undermines any reference to her independence in worn jokes about Herminia's age and how much she and Carlos Alberto have become “useless” and “crumbled” over time.” [6] The film reached 1 million admissions in its opening weekend and 1.8 million admissions in the first week.
