Movie Reviews of City of Men
Movie Review: one of the best shows ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
i dont want to repeat anything that's already been said but i just love this series so much i had to come on here and give it 5 stars. i'd give 100 if i could!
i watched the entire series over 3 days time and i would reccommend it to anyone of any age. it's just so entertaining, making you laugh, cry, learn and think. the actors who play acerola and laranjinha are extremely talented (and there are a lot of hot guys in the series - tons of eye-candy.)
the subtitles are great, the brazilian-portugese is an awesome language, so nice to listen to and you will probably inadvertently learn some while watching this!
Movie Review: There is a way to live different than ours
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best way to show your kids that there is a different way to live besides the materialism that we are used to, and guess what, there is happiness there too, and lots of it. Here you will see how two best friends grow in one of Rio de Janeiro`s favelas, and get face to face with gangs and drug traffic, poverty, sexuality, and family problems and manage to come up being great persons, maybe not to be wealthy, but good persons, and have lots of fun while facing all this. This is the kind of TV product that should be shown to every student in every school in every first world country. Parabens Acerola e LaranjinhaMovie Review: I couldn't stop watching!
Summary: 5 Stars
Once you watch once, you can't stop. I was hesistant at first to watch the shows because City of God was so very violent and I wasn't mentally prepared for another like that (even though the movie was great). However, these shows are more subtle in the violence and have a lot of humor. Primarily, the two main characters and the supporting actors are so engaging. You just want to keep watching them and watching them. Great series. Highly recommended.Movie Review: City of Men
Summary: 5 Stars
Love it love it love it :)It is the tv series of the movie City of Men, which sums up the entire series. I got hooked with City of God - though it is not the same story, it is the story about the survival of the youth in Rio's favelas. (Similar to City of God, but different time period - with some of the same actors). Subtitles run fast on the series as I don't think it was intended to be released internationally.Movie Review: Lightning fast pacing, authentic set locations, stories that
Summary: 5 Stars
entertain and educate - it's Rio, the beach, the favela and more - try to keep up with those subtitles and regret in the process that you can't pay attention to all the photographically dazzling details at the same time. This 3-disc set is a winner. I liked it as much as the original movie. Finishing the show is like losing a good friend (or two)!
