Brilliant movie. Reminded me of
The Wire a couple of times actually

Not in a direct sense (cinematography & storytelling are very different), but the subject matter and the way it simply felt so
real did feel similar at times (The Runt was a bit over the top though tbh).
However I would have preferred if they had kept the original names for the subtitiles
Lil Z sounds much more like a wannabe trap rapper from Atlanta than a sociopathic Favela druglord...

I can guarantee you that if I'll ask 100 random people here, 60% haven't seen either movie, about 25 Apocalypse Now and only a couple City of God.
But yeah I haven't seen a lot of the "classics", been trying to correct that for about a year now

Glad to see I'm not completely an open book on here.
