A Brazilian masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2003)

Even more than a hell of a great movie, City of God is also a "sign" to the brazilian producers. It's proved that we can produce good movies, with great direction of sound, music, photography, etc. Yes, it's violent, it's raw, but it's true. It's funny when you see others complaining about its content, since the Hollywood productions are SO much heavier... a good example? Gangs of New York. Do what I say, but don't do what I do.
