Cultural Tip
The combination of "tá" and "doido" is typical of Brazilian youth slang. It adds a playful, enthusiastic tone. Avoid this phrasing in formal settings (e.g., a job interview or a formal email) – there you would use "está" and "ansioso" or "interessado" instead. Also, note that "Que filme" sounds natural in spoken Brazilian Portuguese, while "Qual filme" is the grammatically stricter alternative.
