Movie Review by Seth C
October 22nd, 2006

"City Of God" is one of the most fascinating films you may ever see!

From Brazil, director Fernando Meirelles paints a brilliant masterpiece about life int the 1960's/1970's Rio de Janeiro. There may not be a single flaw in this film. From the fantastic camerawork to the brilliant story structure to the extremely applaud-able acting on the behalf of everyone involved, from the little kids of the picture to it's adult players, "City Of God" is a perfect film.

Don't let the fact that "City Of God" is a foreign film stop you from going out and seeing this film today.

Short, simple, and very, very true. Much agreed. Nice, my friend.
