I recommend this if you are into "Menace to Society" and other gang related movies. I never heard of it until a friend recommended it, and i was not dissapointed.
What's great about it: A classic movie with great acting

This is a great movie, a must watch if you haven't done so You will be taking a trip to Rio de Janeiro without taking a flight. This movie needs ten stars from the rolling stone, Chicago Sun Times, and the New York Post.

City of God is one of the most critically-acclaimed films of the last decade. This gripping, emotional drama is one of the finest works of film. Cuaron does an excellent job directing and sets himself apart in the industry. It also paved the way to the rest of his success as a director. I recommend this movie to anyone who loves great films with a moving plot and realistic characters and drama.

City of God is an amazing film from South America, sort of a Goodfellas set in a different country. The rise of a criminal and the dangers of living a life of crime.

Bought this as a replacement for my dvd because I love this movie. Chilling drama (and part biography) of life as it was in the drug and gun riddled favelas of Rio De Janero. (I say "was" because supposedly the goverment has cleaned up many of these areas in preparation for the upcoming Olympics). I like stories that give you a glimpse of life outside of our culture, and this film does all that. Quite, perhap over-the-top, violent and I suppose controversial, it also is a story of rising above circumstances. The extra feature documentary included is quite good, and will simply have you shaking your head.
