City of Abduction - Die Entführung der Camila Couto

Ok I should not try to compare any movie coming from Brazil to the masterpiece (and I mean the sequel, although of course I also really liked the first Tropa de Elite movie too). This is a decent movie to say the least - and it is based on real events. So there is that for sure. And it is as down and gritty as you would it expect it to be.

Just the first action scene ... there's no difference between this and a Hollywood Action movie with a similar theme. So no this is not polished, but not every movie needs that polish. The pacing could be a bit tighter, but that is a personal opinion on that, you may feel different. Overall more than decent and a testament on a certain period of time and what went down (more or less) in Brazil ...
