terribly disappointed with city of men after be sweep away by city of god . lose be the exciting and unpredictable storyline and and instead and in it place and be bland predictability with the obvious attempt at audience manipulation by a superficial pretentious production and distribution team . this story end up feel like a sappy soap opera rather than a gritty indie feature and which be what be should have be . this be what happen when distributor try to seek a wider audience ( ridiculous sweep shot of the rio coastline and etc ) at the expense of a gripping story and character . i really couldn not care what happen to any of the character in this film they be all so 2 dimensional . in short and sad waste of potential that should have be a slam dunk follow the exceptionally inspired city of god . boo .
