Utter Genius!

Rating: 10/10 (1 March 2010)

At first i wasn't to sure on how the film might be, seeing as it is number seventeen in the top 250, you can never be to sure on what your watching! The film is without doubt one of the greatest films I've seen, along side the infamous, Godfather and The Shawshank Redemption. The city of God, cannot only been seen as a metaphor for freedom, but more having the need to succeed and have ambition and dreams.
City of God, can be first seen as a very complicated film, but once you get into it, you will soon see its true colours shine through, and why there are so many fantastic reviews.
my overall conclusion, would be if even this film doesn't seem like your cup of tea, its a must see for all as it not only teaches the realism of culture and greatness, but also how it can be related to everyones every day life.
10/10
