That it reminds you of The Neverending Story worries me slightly. With Brazil, I recommend one takes care to get the Director's Cut version which has a runtime of 142 minutes. I suspect that you've seen the american version which is ten minutes less and, I think, vastly inferior.
The reason I suspect that is because the american version contains footage of clouds at the start and end (I think it was), some of which is actually extraneous footage from The Neverending Story.
You can check IMDB's alternate versions page for the movie ->
Brazil (1985) - Alternate Versions - IMDb
With the movie fresh in memory, you should be able to determine which version it is you've seen. Either way, you know which one to see the next time you watch it
