Elite Squad (Portuguese: Tropa de Elite) is a Brazilian crime film directed by José Padilha.
Starring Wagner Moura, Caio Junqueira, André Ramiro & Maria Ribeiro.
It is based on a special tactical force called BOPE. Captain Nascimento is planning to leave the force and he is looking for a replacement to pass on the baton of command. Two police officers Neto Gouveia and AndréMatias decide to join BOPE due to their superiors systemic corruption.
The script of the movie was co-written by Rodrigo, a former BOPE officer. The shootout scenes were very loud and somehow it resembles the movie 'City of God'. The performance was all good and the only drawback I felt about the movie is its camera work. Overall, it's an engaging film that shows some real issues and worth your time.
Verdict: Good
