City of God in 25 Words or Less

No better word than "devastating" to describe the story, and its effect. Every filmmaking tool's used expertly for a gut-punch experience. Brilliant. Grade: A

I remember walking out of that movie, into the sunlight of The Grove, and as Margaret and I bumped into two 11-eyar old kids, we remarked that all either of us could think was "don't kill us!"

Incredibly effective filmmaking.
