absolutely unmatchable.

I'm studying cinematographic and as a "homework" I had to watch a foreign movie and write about it... as Brazil it's different from Portugal i gave this movie a try... I was astonished by the beauty of the entire film, we found ourselves in a new world, one of those we thought that couldn't exist... too evil and miserable that even in our most dreadful nightmares we would never had. Cidade de Deus takes us to a reality we try to hide from our minds, a place where drugs, murders, betrayals and so on are common, a place where the good and evil is distinguished only in the minds of each ones as there are nearly no rules. It was amazingly performed, the director made a uber masterpiece. don't take attention to those guys who said this was a bad movie... as a movie addict and as a student of this I assure you... this is absolutely AWESOME!!!!
