I am tired of these movies


I am half brazilian (and i live there), so don't come here and say that i don't understand nothing about Brazil.

Anyway, this is pretty much stuff that we already saw in brazilian cinema: poor kid, criminals, death, drugs, lots of tears and stuff like that.

I will not be surprised if Globo Filmes will shat out a movie of the Rio De Janeiro school massacre, really, brazil is just producing the same stuff over and over again, i have seen better deciption of Brazil in Hollywood movies.

I think that you should watch the documentary, because i think that it's even better than this piece of exploitation, because that's what it is, an exploitation movie.

It's true that most of the Brazilian films I've seen have had crime as their theme but anybody with a brain knows that Brazil is more than just slums and criminals. It's just that the films that get widespread attention outside the country will be usually be about serious subjects.
