Keep on making the same old mistakes

Rating: 1/10 (6 March 2012)

Well, it's very difficult, specially for a Brazilian, not to rate this "thing" as 1 (awful).
What we see in this movie is a nightmare for any educated Brazilian, and the "song" remains the same: A movie that keeps on selling our image as a country that only cares about carnival, naked women, parties, soccer and having fun all the time.
I wonder when we will see people actually thinking before making such travesties related to my country's name. Where are the movies related to our discoveries in various education fields, such as engineering, aeronautics, space, physics, alternative fuels, and all sorts of applied science? If this thing called RIO is what we send to the outter world, what else will they think of us? Not to mention the fact that the state of RIO is an embarrassment to us all. Corrupted to its roots and absolutely violent, although our dear press pathetically sometimes tries to sell an otherwise image. Ask anybody from Brazil, it's not just me saying it.
Back to the RIO movie: Monkeys stealing iPhones? Shantytowns (although there is no translation for it, that's how the New York Times has called our 'favelas')? Carnival? Whores on Copacabana beach? Soccer? My country had enough of this. Make a visit to Sao Paulo (among many other places) and you will discover what Brazil is.
Sorry for the long text, but I had to say it.
