Review: What are you doing, you are a child? I steal, I kill, I carry a gun, how can I just be a kid? I am a man.Many who first visited Brazil, Brazil tend to see is the lack of serious ambition. They seem to party all night, and rarely seems to work. The old joke about Brazil is that they have breakfast at 2:00 in afternoon.But such a narrow view does not take into account the fact that while in the U.S., we work to live, sweating away ear stolen government at every turn, they lived in Brazil lives. It's a different kind of life, a life that Samba with vibration and swaying palms empty border. A life that understand that we are only on this earth for a cup cafezinho and we need to have fun while we can before the end comes, but quick.But city of God tells us that life is often unpleasant Brazil, brutality and; cards. A certain degree of anarchy overshadowed all residents of the film. But the director Fernando Meirelles has a situation that lacks clear boundaries and clear responsibilities, and create a frame, a structure that gang rule. Members gang is not spicy, old-fashioned criminals Fredo Corleone or even Tony Montana. Instead, they are a bunch of cute baby face. No older than 25, partly because of the election, but mainly because no one lives in this last age.On surface associated with Na, y, City of God is a coming of age story about two young people , a kind of Brazilian Angels With Dirty Faces. A character escape from the city God, while others can not bear to it.But when you scratch below the resting m as a comment on the film was morally bankrupt City of God in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil and the mirror itself. Skip far side, Travel and Leisure postcard perfect white beach, is another world, one of the band's pillaging stone removed this children.The, ng most surprising about the City of God is a reference to the American film. Most of the Brazilian films, such as films of all countries owe allegiance to particular cultural situation of his own. Brazil owes European culture (Portugal, Germany, Italy) and Africa. However, the United States, a relationship more distant Brazilian culture. This is where the city God is with me to win an American film goer. It uses the popular formats in Pulp Fiction and more recently, Kill Bill. It uses the presence of family structure in Goodfellas. It uses white-out cool suit in Miami Vice and Bacardi and Coke ad previews before this very fact that it is better movie.The NH City of God subtitles can be Grand Theft Auto: Sao Paolo, is not a surprise is also a mistake. The film is built like a video game using the random acts of violence. But the perfect camera work and editing services give way to a movie with a huge contradiction. Conflict large and vast as the country itself.Stylistically noble, camera work is inconsistent with the premise of it as a social drama gangsters. A gangster film has never looked so good. That is, if the camera was released in the wide open beach, and kicking around as one of Ronaldinho's title. It started in the sand and make themselves more through. It picks up on the story, but then headed into the sun. Then it's down to us, the film viewer, with indelible images of the year that we see Sonia Braga (a world icon and, sex symbol of Brazil) 's grandson, sat on the sunny coast put his arm around a young boy. The transition innocent in this scene is something to behold. It literally see your breath slam away.You different theme competition. You can see the subtle and serene beach scene young smashed on the street beat. You see countless pictures vaguely hypnotic pull together, like the culture of Brazil is its own.
