If you guys haven’t seen the Iron Claw, I highly recommend reacting to it. It is based on the true story of the Von Erich brothers.
React Elite Squad, Tropa de Elite. Same vibe movie and better then this movie.
About the movie, there are many real characters and a lot of real elements, but the way they connect them was kind of invented to fit better into the movie.
To put some context about how it starts:
In the early 1960s, people fled the famine that occurred in northeastern Brazil (one of the rare existing data shows 500,000 people dying of hunger in 2 years). They went mainly to Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. As the cities did not have space for them, they built their houses themselves with scrap wood and in an environmentally protected area due to the risk of environmental disaster. The government didn't care because Brazil (due to the cold war) was in a dictatorship (1964-1988) to kill communists.
City of god is about 60's and 70's and then, elite squad 1 is 90's and elite squad 2 is 2010's.
Please watch society of the snow!
@@BrunoFO89 Yeah!!!! Elite Squad. Amazing movie!!
A very good story about this film is that at the oscars Steven Spielberg personally asked Fernando Meirelles how they film the chicken chase scene, which he thought was incredible and probably take a lot of work, he asked if they had invented a new technique to do that, and Fernando basically said "I just tied a camera in another chicken and he ran after the first one" XD
Wow!
Spielberg*
There's a video but In portuguese called movies Inspired by cidade de deus and they tell this story
It wasn't in another chicken, it was in a broom
@@ygoreduardo6542 Vocês estão todos errados. Era uma cadeira de rodas
People talk about The Godfather… but this is hands down the best Gangster movie. It’s so visceral.
I wouldn’t compare it to the godfather , I’d go with Scarface
@@Knightowl1980 Goodfellas!!!!!!
As a Brasilian that have the Godfather as my favorite film, this was a very good comment to read ❤
I agree. Third world is way more violent, more true, more trasher.
'cause this is freaking real. I lived that kinda days. Brazil isn't easy, corruption and total violence everywhere, ashes o ashes, dust to dust like Sepultura once said. That's the power when brazilians really have the access to tell you something, it's just visceral.
The horrifying thing about Lil Ze is that *on occasion* he shows a human side; he doesn't shoot Angelica, even though he tells her "this is your fault" right there at Benny's corpse - he easily could, he shoots the air instead. He then gifts the photo-camera to Rocket, even explicitly remembering Benny wanted Rocket to have it.
In my opinion, these *teeny* moments of humanity is what makes someone like Lil Ze so scary; they aren't aliens, monsters, creatures of our imagination - they are actual humans!
He could have killed Rocket too just because of his relation with Goose but he doesn't judge him for that
Lil Ze was just a rat king. He was just another lost child from the favella, represented by his death, at the hands of chileren from the favella.
@@TR13400 That's too shallow, he wasn't the only kid in the favela, Rocket was there too and didn't end up like Lil Ze. Most kids that end up in crime doesn't have a present father or father figure. That's why they don't even show Lil Ze's parents, to make it explicit that he has no one to guide him, except for the tender trio. Plus, he's a sociopath, he smiling and laughing when he kills people shows how dangerous and unpredictable he can be.
@@lordskysixss you just proved my point. He was just like rocket except Rocket had a brother and a father to teach him. Rocket could have EASILY ended up beening one of Lil Ze men or one of his rivals.
@@TR13400 Rocket knows that Lil Ze killed Goose
Acompanho esse canal um tempo e não esperava por isso. Gostei.
Demorou né, faz tempo que eu esperava por esse vídeo.
Simmmmm KKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Eu tbm, dei um grito quando vi a notificação kkk
Eles precisam reagir a Tropa de elite
@@rodolfoneto8071 sempre alguém colocando Tropa de Elite na mesma prateleira que Cidade de Deus
In the original Portuguese version, Knockout Ned's name is Mané Galinha. Galinha literally translates to chicken.
In the intro, Lil' Z's gang is cooking chicken with carrots. It's an intentional symbolism, but it doesn't work so well in the English translation.
A tradução inglesa é fraca. Na cena que ele diz que não quer amanhecer com a boca cheia de formiga, eles traduziram pra I don’t want to die. Acho que o resultado da morte é o mesmo em qualquer parte do mundo.
You guys should watch Elite Squad (Tropa de Elite), O Auto da Compadecida and Central do Brasil 🇧🇷! All are excellent and that last one was even nominated for 2 Oscars (best actress and best international film)!
O Auto da Compadecida a legenda ficaria toda errada por conta das girias que só os nordestinos entendem
@@jackson1263 Ué, mas os outros dois filmes tbm são cheios de gírias. Qual a diferença?
@@jackson1263 aconteceu o msm agr com cidade de deus
Centra do Brasil acho meio sem graça. Reconheço o valor cinematográfico, mas n me impacta. Já Tropa de Elite 1 e 2 e o Auto da Compadecida são maravilhosos. Principalmente o Auto da Compadecida.
@@pabloaugusto2880 A diferença é que a genialidade de O Auto Da Compadecida não está necessariamente no enredo, mas sim nos diálogos dos personagens, eu acho o filme perfeito... Para brasileiros, o filme perde toda a graça e toda a genialidade pra um estrangeiro.
Brazil is big with the nicknames. I know guys who's real names I don't even know. From what I was told Buscape(rocket) is a type of firework that spins around with loads of sparks and kids that are hyper get that nickname.
Yep, that´s pretty much it. Busca means search and pé means foot, so this type of firework is called literally footseeker because we set it off close to the ground and it goes following your feet
Sou brasileira e Buscapé é um doce feito com amendoim, muito bom por sinal. ❤
@@nataliaqueiroz4476 o nome desse doce é Pé de Moleque e não Buscapé.
This is probably my favorite film ever simply because of how immersive it is.
Same, it’s a masterpiece, definitely one of my favorite films
its bcuz the acting it’s so natural
OMG. I screamed out loud when I saw the notification for this video. City of God is incredible, a great source of pride for our Brazilian cinema. I would like to recommend Central Station, the most beautiful Brazilian film of all time, with a masterful performance by Fernanda Montenegro, both nominated for an Oscar.
Oh, John. Your Portuguese was perfect 👌🏻
My favorite foreign film of all time. And my favorite end credits of all time. Thanks for the reaction.
Em nome do cinema brasileiro eu agradeço 🇧🇷
I can’t believe this film wasn’t even nominated for best foreign/international film nor did it win any Oscars
-you really should do more international film
35:20 There is a rivalry between Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, in the end there are great people on both sides, it's really a lack of conversation. But if you are a jerk and irritate one of both sides, it won't work out very well.
AS a Brazilian who love this chanel: thanks for this reaction! City of God is one of the greatest movie ever. A trully masterpiece!
What make the acting very real, is cause most or all the actors are people who really live in City of God ! Thx ReelRejects to watching this movie, love to see reactions from people outside Brazil of this movie!! Greetings from Brazil 🟩🟩🟨🟨🟦🟦
It's good to point out the work of Fatima Toledo also. She was the acting coach for the movie and she is one of the best in the world in that area. Even though the actors were mostly from a similar reality, we must not forget most of them never acted before this movie. Fatima's work with actors is amazing.
Great film! In 2006 I went to Rio and through circumstances ended up in City of God where I and some family were briefly shown around by Leandro Firmino, who plays the "villan" L'il Zee in City of God, and then we went and drank beer. Leandro and his wheelchair-bound friend talked almost exclusively nerd movie news, specifically how they wanted Guillermo Del Toro to make a Justice League movie.
Y'all gotta watch Elite Squad another great Brazilian movie
Up
@@arcanevi4477 I hate to break it to you but they aren't in Brazil in that movie
@@OhyeahMrKrabz so?
@@arcanevi4477So? Because they aren't in Brazil
@@OhyeahMrKrabz He's not talking about the movie Up. When people respond "up" is to get your comment more attention because there are more answers.
I really recommend wacthing the behind the scenes if you can find it online. The movie was shot in 16mm and 35mm. Fernando Meirelles, the director, is amazing and was praised for how this movies was filmed.
Most of the actors were unknown and he worked with kids who had no experience in acting.
He also directed The Constant Gardner, Blindness and The Two Popes.
This is definitely in my top 10 films of all time. Theres a strange beauty to the madness this movie shows. Incredible underrated and raw.
Excellent pronunciation on Cidade de Deus 🇧🇷
Glad you guys liked the movie
I'm Brazilian and I'm happy to see my country's cinematographic works on this channel! 🇧🇷
The editing in this movie is a freaking MASTERPIECE! Editor Daniel Rezende directed a few movies including the amazing Bingo: King of the Mornings, wich also have insane transitions like City of God
A masterpiece of cinema. Its a raw gut punch into the life of these people. Its a long film but it flew by the first time I watched it.
What's your FAVORITE Brazilian Film?? Leave 'em in the comments!!
As a Brazilian, probably o auto da compadecida, The Awakener and Elite Squad
Being honest...Turma da Monica Lições. But Auto da Compadecida is amazing too
auto da compadecida
Central do Brasil
"O Auto da Compadecida" and "Lisbela e o Prisioneiro" are amazing, but culturally specific. Not sure how you'd react.
That said. Tropa de Elite 1 and 2 (Elite Squad 1 and 2) is great. Director and actor of Narcos. Director moved to the US from all the threats he received after making the above films (inspired by true events)
I remember watching this during a weekday and exiting the AMC Empire in Times Square at 2:00 am through a small side door after it was done. This movie got a lot of international hype and it was totally worth it. Everyone was speechless.
Now, THIS film os quite something... Saw it when I was a bit younger and it was traumatizing. Great film.
This movie is like GTA San Andreas
Yeah Brazil on the Real Rejects!!! I love it 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷!!!
The cinematography and storytelling of this movie is perfect. It's crazy to think many of the actors were just local kids cast to depict their actual communities. Unfortunately, a lot of them weren't fairly compensated especially for how big this movie became.
The scene where Lil Z goes after the Runts is one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen in a film. The performances of the kids makes it feel almost too real and the fact of how young they were. An unforgettable scene that has stuck with me since I first watched it.
Legenda says that the scene was sort of improvised, and the acting feel real because the kid was scared for real
@@williamsilveira6853Quase todo mundo que participou do filme morava na cidade de Deus
There is also a documentary called "City of God: 10 years later" that is great also.
"Tropa de Elite" and "Auto da Compadecida" NEXT
As a Brazilian who learned to speak English watching you react, I can only say, thank you. I never expected this reaction and I'm very happy, I love your work for a while now
Hey! I’m glad you like it! I am Brazilian, and I really like this movie. If you are interested, there is this Brazilian superhero movie called “The Awakener”. It’s punisher inspired and super cool. I really like it and SUPER recommend. If you are interested, thank you!
Isso não é um filme lá super direitista? Ou eu tô enganado?
@@olimpiano8760 Eu não vejo desse jeito não, eu vejo como um filme contra corrupção, onde ele derruba a corrupção derrubando o governo. O fato que o PT era o governo do momento não afeta (ou não deveria) afetar a mensagem do filme. Mas posso estar enganado também ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Só vale a pena se for a série. O filme é incompleto demais.
@@VitorHugodeSouzaOliveira Ele tem série?
@@thememesmonarch1200 tem sim. O filme é uma versão compactada da série
Very excited to see you watching this movie! I watched it for the first time in college as part of my Film Studies course and it was AMAZING! Hard hitting and brutal but incredibly made. More people should watch it.
So glad that John and Aaron are reacting to this movie! This movie is really good and intense! 👍
Fun Fact: it was not translated but at the very end of the film in the scene where the children are leaving in the alley they mention some names of drug dealers and groups that were emerging at the time and how they would end them all, one of the groups mentioned was the "Falange Vermelha"(Red Phalanx). Well, "Falange Vermelha" now "Comando Vermelho" (Red Command) became the biggest criminal organization in Brazil (especially in Rio) and one of the biggest in South America! anyway, an interesting detail they added.
little curiosity, this movie was ridiculed by the critics because for them it was "too violent to be real" but for us brazilians who see these kinds of things daily on news and some unfortunate with their own eyes may find this movie just spot on, and by the way the "soviet attack" at the end is also legit since now the slum's community in rio are run by the Comando vermelho or "Red command" that has this phrase as their motto.
The directors made a TV series afterwards in "present day" called the City of Men that followed 2 normal kids who lived in the favela (so daily life plus random gang & cop stuff). It was interesting, way less violent & kinda funny. One of the kids was in City of God but i can't remember which character he played. There are only 4 seasons and each season is really short. You may want to check it out if you have time.
Both kids were in City of God.
One was the actor who played the younger version of Lil Z
And the other was the actor who played Steak n Fries
If I remember correctly, all of the actors weren't professional. They were kids and people from the actual neighborhoods they were filming in. I only know of one of them that is currently a major actress, that being Alice Braga (Queen of the South, The Suicide Squad)
Alice Braga also did "Elysium" and "I am Legend". Carrot is also a professional actor, very well known in Brazil, and participates as a main character in another all time brazilian favourite movie " O Auto da Compadecida", or "The Dogs Will" in english (not literally translated). And knockout Ned is a very good and popular singer. His artistic name is "Seu Jorge". Worth checking it
Actually Knockout Ned is played by Seu Jorge one of the best musicians on the country. He was also on a movie with Bill Murray called The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
It was a pleasure teaching you Portuguese, John haha I can't believe you mentioned Barra Mansa haha
Tu é de BM? Eu fiquei me perguntando como ele conhecia ahaha
@@ferreira8649 sim, eu sou de Barra Mansa por isso que ele sabe hahaha
54:30 it relates to the chicken because it's the story of Lil' Zé ruuning to catch Knockout Ned (in portuguese, his name is Mané Galinha - Mané Chicken). Ned is interpreted by Seu Jorge, a VERY GOOD brazillian musician
One of my favorite movies of all time, actually number one. Pulp Fiction and Boogie Nights are two and three. I like my flicks with "edge".
um dos melhores filmes do brasil
talvez o mais famoso
é sempre bom ver gente de fora apreciando nossa arte
one of brazil's best films
perhaps the most famous
it's always good to see people from other countries appreciating our art
3.3 million dollar budget for one of the best films I've seen. This movie opened the door for me to watch other Brazilian films.
As a film major this is the first movie that I had to study that really clocked me into the art of storytelling
you also need to see Central Station, it was also nominated for an Oscar, it stars Brazil's greatest actress, Fernanda Montenegro.❤
as a brazilian viewer, you cannot even begin to imagine how shocked I was when I saw the notification for this video!! i'm so glad you guys enjoyed the experience of this gem. I hope you'll continue to explore foreign cinema more, I'm sure many viewers (like myself) would be enchanted to see it :D love from brazil 🇧🇷❤
The editor of this film, Daniel Resende, whom was nominated for the Oscars, also edited The Tree of Life, by Terrence Malick.
Absolutely GOATed film, all time favourite. 😎
Wow guys! Love this movie for so many reasons. Like many others it sits very very high up there in my ultimate must watch list.
These child actors did a STELLAR job! All the chaos, insidious cycles of pain, trauma, violence,and grit is so well captured! ❤
Look forward to your thoughts!
One of my favorite foreign films. Fantastic filmmaking.
a little detail people often forget: the entity that baptised lil dice as lil z said specifically "if you want power, I'll give you this amulet, but if you fornicate with it, you gonna die"
and well, he abused the girl with the amulet on, and his fate was inevitable.
E aí manos, qual a boa? Obrigado por assistir um filme aqui do nosso país, aqui o bagulho é louco mesmo mas vocês são bem vindos pra quando quiserem aparecer aqui. Abraços do Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Finally more channels are reacting to Brazilian movies because we have a lot of good ones.
As a brazilian i gotta say, John your portuguese is very good man, congratulations!
Also tanks for the reaction, you guys are the best!
Oh my God, I loved this reaction. It's really cool to see our Brazilian cinema valued in this way. I would love it if you saw another perspective on Brazilian culture, such as northeastern culture and regional humor, through films.:
"O auto da compadecida"
"Lisbela and the Prisoner"
They are hilarious and very well directed. It would be wonderful to see them here.
Lisbela is a great movie! ❤
You guys should react to more Brazilian movies. Our cinema is amazing.
BRAZILIAN MOVIES OH YESSSSS bom diaaaaaaa! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Boa tarde, boa noiteeeee. I think you would also REALLY love central station. And one comedy movie that is very poetic, artistic and famous here is Dog's Will, but not sure it's in any streaming service. :(
This is an S tier movie. Still one holds up after all these years.
Amazing movie! I would love for you to react to Wild Tales (2014) since you don't mind watching foreign films. I think it's an Oscar nominee that's been pretty much slept on. Anthology, thriller and dark comedy with social commentary. Being about 4 short stories that you don't know where they take you, I think it would make an excellent film particularly for reaction channels...
Came from a neighborhood similar to this in Brazil. Live in the US now. Funny the things people complain about in comparision to there. I am very thankful for everything I work hard for, I'll say that. Also, Elite Squad 1 and 2 are a MUST watch for Brazilian movies.
I love films like this that make you keep thinking of it for the next week.
Plot twist: none of them were actors, just regular ppl who received coaching technics, the director wanted it more real as possible
Boa tarde! I appreciate the effort with our language! ✌
The thing about "No guy from São Paulo can be cool", is that we have an intern "rivalry" between São Paulo and Rio, which are two big neighbor states. I don't know if there are any equivalents in the US.
Since you guys asked about the cast, Seu Jorge, who plays Knockout Ned, is a famous musician here in Brasil. Great songs!
My film teacher showed us this movie and Y Tu Mama Tambien and my life was changed forever. Would love a reaction of that movie next!
Amei o react ♥️ n esperava 🤣😍
Cidade de Deus é Uma Obra de arte 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
apparently, the child's cry who was shot on the foot was real, since the direction of the movie wanted a genuine reaction, so it somehow made believe the boy that Lil Ze' was ( existed on real life ) real, instead of an acting. he talked about the scene causing him a trauma years later after the filming of the movie.
as a brazilian, seeing u guys reacting to movies from here is dope!
I've been training BJJ with several Brazilians for 20 years.
Every Brazilian has a nickname.
If you hang out long enough, you'll get one too.
I'd say the translations of this movie could've been better but its really hard to adapt some of our slangs.. This is a masterpiece tho
sim, chega a me incomodar ahauahah não passa metade da emoção
Everytime I see this movie subtitled I remember how strong is our culture of giving everyone nicknames 😂 just in my neighborhood there's Soap, Rat and Cock
OMG! As a brazilian I am very happy to watch this video!!! Great job! Bom trabalho!
Actually, Knockout Ned's actor, is a hell of a singer, you guys should look him up, Seu Jorge is his name.
Also something you might like - you were saying about the kids, The Runts, and how good the kids acting was in the Hand or Foot scene. The littlest kid in that scene was told that he had to imagine the WORST PAIN he'd ever experienced and use that as the basis for his acting. His worst pain? A tootache. So, while the scene is distressing just remember that sweet lil' story and it might make you feel a bit better. 🙂
This is one of my favorite movies ever! Very cool to see my people's art in here! I have followed you guys for a long time. The São Paulo thing is just a joke (Rio de Janeiro- where Cidade de Deus is- and São Paulo have "beef"; but is almost always a light-hearted thing. I don't know anyone who takes it seriously.). My country has some beautiful cinema productions, you should check out "Auto da Compadecida", "Central do Brasil" and "Bacurau". There are many more but this is top of my mind. Cheers from São Paulo!
Nossa que surpresa ver vcs assistindo Cidade de Deus 😍 acompanho seus reacts há muito tempo, continuem assistindo nossos filmes, Tropa de Elite, Central do Brasil, Carandiru
I'm so happy for this reaction, thank you so much!!!!
Please react to the film "Central Brasil" which won a Golden Globe and the main actress Fernanda Montenegro was nominated for an Oscar for best actress. It is one of the best Brazilian film.
City of God from 2002 takes place 10 years after GTA San Andreas
This film is amazing! So intense! Love you guys are doing this!
Love from Brazil you guys.
Holy shit! This is a masterpiece of a movie! It's crazy that it's "slept on" at all! So happy you get to enjoy this.
Até hoje, nós brasileiros não aceitamos que esse filme não ganhou Oscar. Obrigado por assistirem essa obra de arte! 🇧🇷🤜🤛 recomendo o filme - tropa de elite (vocês vão pirar)
For as dark a film this is, it's also unexpectedly funny. "Let's make a blacklist." "Ok, who can write?" Loads of great darkly comedic lines especially when they need to soften the blow of a scene. There aren't many films that can pull off this films tone.
Thanks for reacting to a film from my country, i love this channel!
Caraca, bacana demais que eles finalmente assistiram esse. O meu filme nacional favorito, brabo demais!
This movie has been in my watchlist for years 🙈 I might have to become a patron that way I can watch alongside you... Also there are so many movies in my watchlist that I never know what to choose, but I could just choose whatever you upload 😂
Chicken is indeed a symbol. You see, in portuguese, knockout ned's original name is "Mané Galinha" wich could be translated in a more literal way as "Manny Chicken". In the first scene, the hoods of Lil Z are preparing chicken (knockout ned) with carrot for the dinner.
I've been watching this chanel for almost three years now and I did not see this coming hahahaha. Thank you for watching this! This movie is the proud and joy from Brazil, and we love to see people from all over the world recognizing our work!
Now you have to watch Tropa de Elite 1 and 2 (I think the english title is Elite Squad). Both amazing movies, just toooo gooood!! This movie is so real that the director moved away from Brazil to the US because of threats (the stories told were to real that he might knew to mutch)... Yes, its true.
Its the same director and main actor From Netflix's Narcos.
so happy to see you guys react to such an amazing Brazilian movie, highly recommend also watching elite squad ( tropa de elite )
Hi guys of Reel Rejects! First of all, i like your videos and your reactions. It´s so cool and amazing! And Second, you no imagine my happines as a brazilian citzen, see you watching CIDADE DE DEUS (City of God). I watched this movie one time in my life and i´m stay very surprised with the story and the scenes. Congradulations! And, i recomend you guys watched other iconic brazilian movies like Central Station (Central do Brasil) and Elite Squad (Tropa de Elite).
P.S: City of God is retuning in a series format to continue the story in HBO Brazil hands.
I loved this reaction. Thank you guys. ❤😊
I watched this movie years ago when I was very young and it shifted something in me. I was not the same after
I remember watching this movie in the movie theaters and was blown away the first time I couldn’t see it because it sold out quickly that’s when I saw the movie kill Bill volume 1, which was another awesome film
I firmly believe that this is one of best movies ever made.
This movie is a classic
I've been waiting for this ❤❤
