City of God

[Skiz]

Well, for one, yes. I despise subtitled movies.

I'm a fast reader but I despise having my eyes at the bottom of the screen in an action style movie. In something like Passion for the Christ (?), it wasn't bad at all and I barely noticed it.

Indeed there were gangs, drugs, etc., but it was all done in this artsy manner detracted from what it could have been.

Thanks, but no thanks...

May i ask, What do you mean with "what it could have been."
I can not imagine it more honest.

Loved City of God, any word on City of Men?

[psxcite]

I enjoyed the movie. You have to watch it a few times to really get it. Since, as Skizo point out, you have to read the subtitles the first time around. But, once you know the story, you can enjoy the visuals and the acting, which was excellent.
