I'm always pleased whenever I see someone mentioning City of God. that is one of my all time favorites, and the second best film of the last 15 years in my humble opinion. I agree that it looks "cool", that is beautifully shot, and that the editing is great (in fact, it is one of the best I have ever seen), and I absolutely agree that the slow motion-techno music Lil' Ze killing scene is absolutely amazing. well, y'all who like this movie, just imagine that me, as a brazilian, like it ten times more. you can't imagine how realistic this film is. no matter which rating system you're using, I'll give City of God the highest rating.
