City of God, is a great movie. I have only seen it once and that was some time ago but I do remember really thinking that I had just watched something great at the end of it. I really like the feel of the movie, the look of it and all. It sounds weird but I think that the movie has a great sense of speed or motion, meaning that it was beautifully shot. There wasn’t a lot of “hey I went to film school shots” or throwaway techniques but nicely composed shots that had impact.
I think I rated it a 90 (I go off of a 100 point system- like in school)
Or as Irish would say – It looked cool.
