City of God

[Neeper]

I just watched this movie on DVD. What an excellent movie! I was suprised how good it was and how well shot it was. The acting was excellent. Has anyone else seen this? If you haven't, I highly recommend it. Probably one of the best movies I have ever seen. It's about street life in Rio De Jeniro, and shot entirely in Portugese.

I have heard it is one of the best movies ever made.... still need to see it though. I guess 'best ever' is not enough enticement for me... lol...

Yup, definitely one of the best movies I have ever seen, and I'm not usually a fan of the stylized-documentary type. It's filming reminds me of The Thin Blue Line, but the story is far more intruiging.

I have to admit when I was going with my ex-girlfriend to rent it I was like "WTF? Looks dumb." Boy was I wrong. I highly encourage you all to see this movie and really see for yourself what it was like to live in the slums of South America.

It was OK, but if anyone goes in expecting to be blown away they're in for a disappointment IMO.

[Mike Oxlong]

That is by far one of the best movies I have ever seen. Especially in the last few years.

I wasn't too pumped about seeing it at first, especially all in subtitles but I was blown away. That is like no other movie I have ever seen. Incredible!

I can't reccomend it enough to people. Anyone who I have told to watch it has loved it.

By far, on of the best foreign films I've had the pleasure of seeing.

[Language]

I agree that it was one of the best movies to come out in a long time. The thing that made me like it even more was that I had never heard of it before, and wasn't really expecting much from it in the first place.

Boy was I wrong.
