Viewing Notes
FF2011 Day Four: film #2 - Usually I wouldn’t see the sequel w/o seeing the first film but I heard this film stood on its own. And it does. Nice crime flick w/bonafide bad guys and character twists w/moral dilemmas. Really got into this and applaud José Padilha for making a grand cops and bad cops urban thriller.
