One of the greatest movies ever made !!!

Rating: 10/10 (12 November 2006)

When this movie came out, I saw it 5 times in 7 days in the theater. I was waiting at tower at midnight the night that it came out and I bought two copies (one to lend out and one to keep). The documentary that came with the movie was also great "News from a personal war". I can't believe that the director followed this up with "the constant gardener", which I thought sucked in comparison. It was a decent movie, but next to City Of God, it failed to even compare. Brutal reality brilliantly shot and acted would probably be the best way to describe this movie. The Soundrack is also incredible. I was never aware of the situation in Brazil with the crime and corruption until viewing this film. This flick was a powerful way to get that message out to the American and international public.
