About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a Brazil-set true-crime story about a dangerous rise in the underworld, with a gritty nightlife backdrop; Not for you if you need slow character depth or a fully detailed history like 400 Against 1: A History of Organized Crime.
Pros: gripping real-crime rise; strong performances; tense late momentum | Cons: feels rushed; thin background detail; uneven pacing
