Had intended to miss this one in the theater but wound up going anyway and was pleasantly surprised. Who would have thought the man who uttered "What are you looking at sugartits?" could have directed not one but two of the best major foreign language films in the past ten years(neither is as good a City of God). Lots of action, good characters and a storyline that never sags. Really a very solid effort that is likely to be overlooked at oscar time.
