Go and get this movie. Put it in your collection. If you do not live in the "City of God", you will thank your lucky stars that you were not born there after seeing this movie and make you appreciate what you have. I had been wanting to see this movie for a while and just never really sat down to give a chance. I knew it was made in 2002 and I was about to watch it in 2005 after so many people telling me it was a great movie. I didn't know anything about the plot so I had no idea what to expect either. To help me along I was longing to see a great movie in 2005. All I ask for is to see one outstanding film per year, and the others can be good or great. But I need to see one outstanding movie per year, and thats what I got in October 2005. The year is almost over and I was losing hope. Story 10/10, Directing 10/10, Movie as a whole 10/10. If you love movies, this is a movie yo must see before you die.
