you'll never buy another gram of coke...

Rating: 10/10 (22 September 2006)

no movie better explains the drug trade in Rio and what it does to its society -- from macho teens to corrupt police to even eleven year old kids . You won't believe what this one kid admits to doing, as if he were describing a cool video game. The movie was unbelievably good, but the special features were even better. we stayed up until 5am and couldn't turn it off. one of the most inspiring pieces of work i have ever experienced, both in film or in literature. I work at customs and this has served as an excellent reference for my work. If you use cocaine and you see this movie you will probably feel so guilty you won't even need to go on rehab, you'll just dump the crap down the toilet and join the peace corps or something. i'm serious, this movie will affect you.
warning: this is not Oprah, you will have to face some unpleasantness!
