Flawless

Rating: Null/10 (6 February 2007)

This movie could very possibly be the best movie I have ever seen. There is seriously not one flaw to this movie and plus, this movie has nearly everything that could possibly make a movie great.
The cinematography, with the incredibly vivid colors, the pauses in which the narrator tells the story, and the different shots that are seen to show all different perspectives of the story, are all incredible.
The fact that each character shows a different aspect of the life in the City of God makes both the acting and the character choice extraordinary.
The way that the story is told by a narrator and from many different perspectives almost makes the movie a piece of literature.
And last, but certainly not least, the fact that there is a great deal of violence, but none of it is glorified makes the movie an eye-opener to the actual ways of life found within the housing projects of Rio De Janeiro. To me, the unbelievable power of this movie, is, in its own sense, beautiful.
