City of God

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Watched the DVD of this over the weekend. I saw it in the theater when it was out but watching this DVD was like seeing it again for the first time. (Actually that seems to be happening a lot lately, maybe I should seek out some ginko or something.) Anyway, I really liked the 1st half of this movie but the 2nd half seemed to drag. I don't know why I lost interest, maybe it just got to be a bit predictable in the 2nd half, or maybe there wasn't enough character development for me to care about following their gang adventures..... It picked up again near the end when Rocket finally started taking some photos. But at that point I was out of steam. Anyone else thought this picture had a bit of a momentum problem?
