Critic Reviews of "Elite Squad (Tropa de Elite)"
New York PostSeptember 19, 2008For nearly two hours, Padilha bombards viewers with senseless, sickening violence for its own sake.
New York TimesSeptember 19, 2008Elite Squad is a relentlessly ugly, unpleasant, often incoherent assault on the senses from Brazil.
Time OutSeptember 17, 2008Elite Squad can't decide whether it wants to pull the lid back on what urban decay has wrought or simply open up a can of whup ass.
Village VoiceSeptember 17, 2008[José Padilha] recariously pitches the squad's brute force as less a necessary evil than the outgrowth of an existing evil -- a no-win situation that mocks liberal ideals and warps conservative pragmatism into domestic terrorism.
New York Magazine/VultureSeptember 15, 2008It bears a resemblance to viscerally exciting seventies urban thrillers like The French Connection, in which only the fascists could do what needed to be done.
Antagony & EcstasyJanuary 13, 2009A satisfactory enough cop movie, but not one that people will still be name checking years hence
Christian Science MonitorSeptember 25, 2008Given that Brazil, as a Latin American moviemaking powerhouse, steadily produces vibrant, vital films of real impact and humanity, it's a crime itself that Elite Squad may be the only Brazilian film that American audiences see this year.
Spirituality and PracticeSeptember 20, 2008A depressing film that celebrates brute strength as the only means to stem the tide of violence and crime in Rio de Janeiro.
Boxoffice MagazineSeptember 19, 2008With no star names and a tough subject, it will be hard sell despite being a runaway hit on its home turf.
Film Journal InternationalSeptember 19, 2008A poor man's City of God that suggests the only answer to the problems of Brazil's slums are blazing guns wielded by a neo-fascist police force.
ComingSoon.netSeptember 18, 2008Trying to address important and serious social issues in this violent world rather than just creating something sensationalistic or exploitative gives Elite Squad an edge over normal police thrillers.
