Customer Review: Close to being brilliant!!
"If you die your son will be like us. Fatherless." From a film-makers point of view, this film is a daunting task. It has many characters but still grasps your attention. There are so many very good foreign language films nowadays. I thought Tsotsi was top notch and now, City of Men. I mean, wow! The characters in the film are young men involved in gangs, carefully woven in their anger and paranoid youth is a sense of dread and being doomed. Excellent drama. This is a must watch for anyone who's remotely interested. There will be a scene where you will laugh really really hard. There's a little kid in the film that you'll want to cuddle. You'll never want to live the character's life though. Also ... it actually made me think about something most men don't ever think of. It's about fatherhood. Before I become incoherent, I'll just end by saying, this film is going to do really well and is a must must watch. Thankyou for reading.
Customer Review: EXCELLENT FOLLOW-UP TELEVISION SERIES IN THE SPIRIT OF CITY OF GOD
This series does not follow the exact story or timeline as the movie City Of God but it takes place in Rio de Janeiro in the Favela. I was entertained and pleased with the acting, cinematography, and realness. I almost felt that I was there and I could have been there in my younger years.

The new couples do not essentially have to tag on the same status quo. Every couple want to make there wedding reception different from the old tradition ways. Rareness is the one essential thing which makes a wedding reception a memorable one. The guest have seen a lot of events that follow the same style, so if you plan your wedding reception in a novel and unique way, they will surely remember it for every.

New York City has changed the old format of the wedding receptions. It has made a lot of modifications in the traditional wedding lay outs which suits the contemporary times and reflects unique features and personalities of couple.

The old and boring way of announcing the wedding reception party again and again should be replaced. Now, the people in NYC announce the bridal party once and play the much beloved music in the back ground as the guest enters the hall.

New York reception lounges remain incomplete with out drinks. You can plan a cocktail party and become a part of it. You can participate in this occasion and interact and mingle with the guests. This cocktail party can be a real fun with a great music.

The wedding reception should include dance. In fact it is a must to go mad and enjoy. The dance should not be formal. The guest should feel free to dance anytime they wish. The music should be fantastic so that the guest can enjoy dancing. It is very important to keep in mind that the host of the evening should be excellent. He should have the talent to keep the guest entertained and involved. No one should be left behind. The DJs are a must in the parties these days especially in places like NYC, etc. They have gained a lot of popularity.

The people in NYC plan their own wedding reception rather than going to an event planner. They organize it in a way which is unique that suits their style and personality.
