    throw all your godfather collection into the drain because this movie makes them gay.

    if romper stomper ever set their foots in this Rio slums .. i bet they only last for 2 minutes. instant noodle for Lil` Ze .. the most notorious evil character I've ever seen in my life.

    go tell 'blood in , blood out' keep their master plan in the toilet bowl. because Brazilian dude don't had a plan. they shoot you before you even try to think.

    and if any movie directors in Hollywood want to make a gangster movie ,go watch this movie. Hit this with a better one. I bet my ass they can't.

    if any other can be even close to this is Danzel Washinton`s 'Man of Fire'. but just the second half of the movie . Unlike city of gods , man of fire start too slow... way too slow.

    Simply put, this is indeed one of the greatest films you will ever see. If that isn't enough to persuade people to watch, I don't know what is.

    One of the many masterpieces of the moving image world. City of God tells us a story of two boys living in the same violent neighbourhood of Rio de Janeiro. If you ever think Rio de Janeiro, think Christ the Redeemer. Totally wrong. This movie shows the real truth, and not the delusions of the realm.

    One of the two boys eventually becomes a photographer while the other plants his career in drugs; and eventually establises his own mafia. He fights his way up to the very top without knowing the real meaning of life.

    The story is told, and re-told from different points of view. This will always be a movie that someone would want to watch over and over again, and will be remembered as a legend. Who cares to what people say about the movie not being in English. Them and their Hollywood will never achieve something like this. Nevertheless, Fernando Mirelles, a legend in moviemaking.
