Greatest and most inspirational movie ever!!!

Rating: 10/10 (8 February 2014)

City of God is a bloody, exciting thrill as much into the life of a "favela" as it is into the lives of the youths who inhabit it. Although the bulk of the movie narrates the all-out turf wars between two rival drug dealers, the story is told with the energy, liveliness and enthusiasm of a child's tale, somehow managing to leave us hope amongst the corpses as the credits roll.
It is Rocket, who dreams of becoming a photographer, who leads us through a world which no outsiders dare enter. The other inhabitants may be living their own quiet lives, however Rocket is on the periphery of the action and lives through the turf wars in a deeply personal way. From his first crush to his first camera, Rocket shares experiences both touching and humorous as well as his losses.
