Elite Squad – The Enemy Within

I recently enjoyed watching this movie on DSTV’s BoxOffice section. It is Brazil’s highest earning movie ever and it is a political and action thriller exposing corruption within the police force and politicians. It is a fictional account but it is meant to be a fairly accurate portrayal of what goes down in the slums in Rio de Janeiro and obviously, with the World Cup and the Olympics coming up soon in Brazil, it is a topical and very interesting movie to watch. I certainly found it well worth the R25,00 that BoxOffice costs, and it really becomes quite hard to justify a long drive to the movies when you can see them at home not soon after, for half the price. Obviously, if the movie is in 3D and on an Imax screen, then one might want to watch it at the cinema.

I agree with Brenda reading from subtitles is so out, and doesnt help much if you cant see from far hey.

We hired this movie from box office last weekend and it was in a foreign language, i do not enjoy watching movies where i have to read subtitles because then i miss the action.

I am not a wiz with dstv settings, so if one can change the language, i will maybe hire it again.

Sounds like a great movie to watch , will be sure to have a look at this one.

As I am one of those people who do not know much about Brasil besides their parades etc.
