City of God

I finally got to see this fine film a few days ago. I thought it wwas excellent.

For a bunch of amateur actors they were great. I thought that the editiing and direction were exceptional too. You freally got the feeling of being in the overcrowded slums of Rio.

I would give the film 8.5/10. Excellent! thumbs up!

Yeah, and you always know you've seen a good film when you still think about it for days afterward and want to see it again. nod

Even though Benny was a gangster I thought he was cool.

Excellent film. Bought it and watched it three times. Will watch it even more times for sure. It's that good.

Great film. But I refuse to call it 'City of God'. It's called 'Cidade de Deus'. This name-change takes away 20% of its coolness. (next to being a very sad film, of course)
