Gold fever

This story is about literal gold diggers. And while I guess some may compare it to City of God for mining, it wouldn't be fair to the movie itself. Try to watch this as open minded as possible. The characters may make it tough to really enjoy it, because our heroes are not really likeable. But it does try to stay as real as possible while doing so.

It may not be everyones taste but it does fulfill what it sets out to do. If money or the prospect of it (no pun intended) makes people greedy and crazy, imagine what happens with Gold. There is nudity and there is a lot of violence too. So if you like watching movies that depict a certain time era or a certain feeling, this will be right up your alley. It's well done, but is not easy to like

Powerful performances

It's not the heavy dose of violence, the steamy sex, or the vast human spectacle of thousands of miners slaving for gold, that lingers in my mind after viewing this smart, well-told story; it is the excellent acting of this stellar cast. Wagner Moura is typically terrific here and continues to display his very broad range of acting skills. Matheus Nachtergaele is always excellent, too. I was most impressed with Juliano Cazarré's fabulous performance. But all the actors excelled. And the direction by Heitor Dahlia was deft. This is a strong Brazilian film and I am chagrined that there are not more "critic reviews" for this gem.

One of the best movies I have seen

This movie was playing on some obscure TV channel late at night, I was bored so watched it. WOW I love movies but this one blew me away.. All I can say is you ever happen upon this movies watch it.....You will get drawn in just like I was...The characters in this movie were superior to western stars////

Another precious pearl from Brazil.

I have to say that i'm a fan of Brazilian movies! After saying that, let's focus in this one. A very intense drama about two friends in search of a better life. Very well acted and directed, this one keeps us on the edge till the end.

Another one that goes to my recommendation list.

Wissenswertes
Besides co-producing the film, Wagner Moura was supposed to play the lead role, but scheduling conflicts prevented him to take the part and he had to stick with a minor role instead.
