Because of the region, and because of this kind of discussion of drug trafficking, guns, etc., it is easy to think of another giant "City of God". Watching "Elite Troops" with this standard, the result was unexpectedly good. I feel that the focus is on the grasp of the political themes and the priority of the story. After watching this movie, not only can you feel its influence, but you can also see a very attractive, one-stop story.
The first half of the film mainly talks about the corruption caused by the inherent mode of the Brazilian police and the help to the domestic environment. This is the theme. The story is about two new police officers joining the police force to understand the process of structural corruption in the police force. And want to make some changes to these a beginning. The second half is that the two police officers and others came to the elite force (BOPE) to receive training to deal with drug dealers in slums. The two parts are cleverly combined to describe the problems of Brazil at the time from various aspects.
The beginning of the film says that in other countries, those heavy rifles are used for warfare, and in our country, they are used for crime. This sentence is as thought-provoking as in "City of God" when a group of children suddenly drew their guns and shot them when they were chasing the running chickens. The wealthy Brazilians and college students only knew that the elite troops were ruling violently, shooting casually in the slums (this is true). of). They only knew that a college student was killed and needed to take to the streets, but they didn't know to lament for the sacrifice of a policeman. They lived in a large room facing south, basking in the sun. They did not know that a group of violent elements in the slums were selling drugs with AKs. The film brings us into the perspective of BOPE, and you will feel that even if they shoot and kill at will, they are also teachers of justice.
