Critic Reviews of "City Of God"
Chicago ReaderNovember 08, 2011I came away from this film impressed by its narrative control but unmoved by anything it had to say.
VarietyJune 17, 2009City of God delivers a bruising, visceral experience of the vicious spiral of violence that draws kids into a life of crime, brutality and murder as the only avenue open to them.
New York ObserverMarch 11, 2004The living conditions it projects are as horrendous as I had feared, but the movie is surprisingly easy to take as a rollicking homicidal entertainment.
Orlando SentinelMarch 20, 2003Hard to watch but even harder to tear your eyes away from.
Film4November 08, 2011Another passionate piece of Latin American filmmaking, which documents a tragic period in Rio's history and highlights the horrors of life in poverty-line communities. Technically a remarkable filmmaking achievement too.
Common Sense MediaDecember 22, 2010Powerful, but only for 17 and up.
Suite101.comSeptember 25, 2010Each chapter is endowed with powerful, uncompromising, beguiling and, sometimes, deceptive momentum. What seem like innocuous turns become so critical to the narrative that they tie into the ruthless idea at hand: You never see the bullet that kills you.
EmanuelLevy.ComDecember 31, 2009Brazillian director Mereilles' splashy feature debut, a dynamically exciting portrait of Rio's violent gangs, immediately established himsef as an international talent to watch, and the Oscar nods only reaffirmed that status.
ColeSmithey.comJune 12, 2009Fernando Meirelles' Brazilian slum epic is a profound, stylistically expansive depiction of three decades of child gang warfare on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro with non-actors playing their poverty-ridden lives for the camera.
Projection BoothNovember 12, 2008The visceral and artistic excitement remains surface-bound.
