Hmm… I watched this movie today, as well.
And honestly, it was truly awesome.
But the thing is, everyone has said that this movie is awesome; I was an idiot for putting off watching it for so long (I got it into my head that it would be pretty bleak, but as well as being incredibly harsh and honest, it’s one of the funniest, most honest and as such most genuinely hopeful films I’ve seen in years). V For Vendetta has created conflict. But I’ve yet to hear a duff report of City Of God.
If you haven’t seen it yet, use City Of God to buy it from Amazon. It’s violent, sometime shocking, and doesn’t flinch from sexual or social situations, but it’s truly awesome, and very slick. How slick it is shouldn’t be a consideration, but I know that sometimes it is…
Fucking hell. Just checked, and it’s less than a fiver at the moment. That means that for less than the price of two pints you can own it. And it would be cheaper to give as a present than a novelty vibrator from Ann Summers. But, like, infinitely more sexy.
(If I was a real salesman, I would probably have pointed out that that costs nearly as little as hiring a totally inferior movie for just a couple of nights… but really, I just want to share the movie love…)
