City of God


City of God (2002) Official Trailer - Crime Drama HD
Movieclips Classic Trailers

City of God is evidently some kind of government housing project for the homeless. Not much in the way of opportunity, but plenty of crime. The story follows several of the boys and men from this neighborhood. They are all pretty rotten, some more than others. The worst of them takes over the drug business for the whole neighborhood. He does this by killing all of the other drug dealers. But now that he is in charge, crimes of robbery and rape are stopped, which makes the residents happy. Sounds kind of like the Mexican drug cartels taking over the functions of government in the territories they hold.

I keep hoping for a character I care about, but only character who isn't a complete scumbag is the narrator and he does nothing. Well, he eventually becomes a photographer.

Blu-Ray DVD. In Brazilian slum-speak with English subtitles.
