Another unbelievable true story about the child gangs in Rio and some pulp history from the 60's to now. Its interesting to see how each crew that takes over gets progressively younger and younger. I thought this movie was great, good story, good characters, lots of gun play. There is a lot of people being shot in this movie and running drugs, so not for the kids. Its in french or portugese or something, its all subtitles. Definitely worth watching, better than anything in the theater right now, makes me glad I live in Texas, though. Definitely should have gotten the oscar nomination, its worth seeing.

I finally saw it tonight. OMG, what a great movie. Unbelievably dark and violent and based on true facts. Its a must see for everyone who is complacent in life. It provides a real wake up to see how things are in the rest of the world.
