Martin Scorsese seems to have a heavy influence on the direction of this picture, with many moments looking familiar to fans of the legendary American filmmaker. The result is a powerful telling of life based around real-life events. And what a confrontation it is, although details will not be given away here. The final parts of the story focus on the battle within the Cidade De Deus between two different groups, when business and personal matters lead to an unavoidable confrontation. The story covers all the facets of the life, charting the growth of several key members of the gangs from childhood through to young adulthood, with their transformation from young hoodlums to local drugs barons. The different scenarios of life that make up the wider-story are presented in Pulp Fiction style chapters, complete with on-screen titles for each different story component.
Throughout the film one cannot help but watch a scene and think, 'I've seen that in Raging Bull, Goodfellas, or Casino', and this may make some look less favourably on the film's direction. This technique is used heavily in the first twenty minutes of Cidade De Deus, with the freeze frame trick being used to introduce the story's main characters alongside the dialogue of narrator, Rocket. Many shots remind the viewer of Scorsese's narrative dialogue-camera relationship in Goodfellas, in which the camera was used to brilliant effect to highlight the main points in the script.
Cidade De Deus is most brilliant in that it combines directorial and editorial brilliance with a story that is almost second to none in recent times. As Raul Walsh said if you don't have a story you have nothing, and many flashy Hollywood films have fallen short in using 'ultra-modern' direction to disguise the fact that no substantial story exists underneath. Cidade De Deus is much more than a directorial assault on the senses. Think of a crossover between the visual energy of the Matrix and the violence of the club scene in Bad Boys.
Whilst in Amores Perros the characters took precedent, in Cidade De Deus the location is as big a character as those who live there. The at-the-same-time stylish and brutal visuals of Amores Perros are replaced by a grittier, more hands on approach to the subject. I cannot decide yet if I would consider this better than Amores Perros, but it is certainly not inferior. But simply, Cidade De Deus is a perfect film for avid fans of cinematography, and those just in search of two hours of a bloody good story. The direction is amazing, but not to disguise the story flaws, and the story is brilliant, but does not overwhelm directorial originality.
Cidade De Deus deals with dozens, even hundreds, of characters, and so it is only a minority that we become attached to. Amores Perros triumphs in creating relationships between the audience and the characters, as it concentrates for a long time on relatively few people, each of whom we grow to know and ultimately care about, which is important for the emotional impact of the film. As the official press synopsis says, Cidade De Deus is a character, but is a place not a person.
In fact the violence in Cidade De Deus, even the apocalyptic ending, is not as raw and bloody as many will expect. It will of course feel the wrath of critics who will dwell on the almost unimaginably high body count, but there are always those who will reject violence in the movies. Cidade De Deus is essential viewing, and is cinema at its most brilliant. Whether you consider this a good or bad thing is a matter for personal choice. Both films leave open ends, but Cidade De Deus feels closed.
Putlocker City Of God Driver The Violence
Like it's predecessors, this is the latest film to come out of South America that indicates the emergence of major new talent in filmmaking. In short, this is a superb achievement, and is easily one of the best films of the year, and of the decade so far. Like Scorsese's Taxi Driver the violence is abhorrent, but admirable from a cinematic perspective. The result is violence, but it is often so artistic that it looks beautiful rather than deterring.
