Has anybody had a chance to see this yet? This may well be the best film I have ever seen and that is saying alot. The characters where supurb, as was the story. It was riverting, funny, very violent and sometimes very disturbing.
 
I wouldn't say it's the best film I've ever seen, but it IS brilliant and I doubt if I'll see anything better this year.
 
Yeah my R.A. is from Brazil and bought the whole floor tickets so we went and I must say - this movie rocked. It was fucking amazing, the directing, the whole setting of the movie in the 70's to 80's Brazilian crime life. Man it was intense, and I must say that right after that movie I felt like all of the sudden I had it so good in life compared to so much in the world.
The whole movie is such a great saga through decades of crime that it was so awesome to learn at the end that it was based on a true story. I know that means hardly anything..."Based on a true story," but it really makes you think about everything and yer left with the feeling of "whoa...that was some crazy shit."
 
saw it yesterday. shit that movie was fucking good.
it was so excellent, i wish i could put my feelings into words...
the characters, the story and the cinematography were all great. i can't wait to buy this one on dvd/video :D
GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!
 
finally saw this and it was better than i expected. the editing and movement around in time was excellent and really helped the flow. the different perspectives were fresh and interesting. the acting and script were both excellent and the violence was jarring and - often - stomach-turning.
the chicken scene was great too :)

Saw it on my birthday a few weeks ago, thought it was excellent.
Made "Pixote", one of my all time favourite films, including the only film that has ever made me cry, look like Disneyland.

It really showed how poverty and despair are breeding grounds for organised crime.
 
Wow, what a kick ass movie. I'm adding this to my top 5 movies I have ever seen. The plot was genius, the acting was great, the cinematography was awsome.

Defiently am going to buy this when it comes out on DVD!
 
FILM: City of God (Cidade de Deus) - Best film ive seen in years

Welp managed to download this one. I had been trying for a while ever since I saw it listed recently as #113 on IMDB top10

The movie is in portugeuse, so I watched it with english subtitles...

As someone else said "It explores a world or violence and moral ambiguity rarely depicted on film"

All I can say is that its easily the best movie ive seen this year. simply superb.

I'm in the process of burning it to a vcd, but i might just buy the dvd because it was such a good movie. I'd recomend this movie to everyone.

The chicken at the beginning... I loved it

Definitely! I loved the way the movie all came together at the end with the chicken.

Pure Genius!
 
City of God?

In short... I watch my movies before buying them and this isn't available at the video store. Anyone have Brazil's City of God on cable/dsl and are able to send it to moi?

Thanks
 
get if off of kazaa it should only take a day. i had it but i had to format and i didn't get a chance to back it up. what kind of connection do you have?

i do apologize if there is a thread on this movie already.

The film did it's first run in theaters and then to video, now it's back in some theaters. I strongly recomend checking it out.

I dont really know how to create a synopsis w/o giving anything away from the plot so here's a link linky

if you like films about drugs, sex, and murder presented in a fresh interesting way i strongly suggest checking it out. anyone seen it?

Out in my college town, not a single theater is carrying this. I'm making a drive into atlanta primarily to see it this weekend.
