Assalto ao Poder

Why the low score? Vastly underrated on all accounts.

A fast pace with intelligent discourse and low key excellent acting, intriguingly complex characters and a plot than unravels perhaps too close for some peoples comfort.

Anyone with a genuine interest of well produced, clever, politically inclined police-thrillers and a generally solid judgment would rate this film significantly higher than its current received score.

The word "conspiracy" even mentioned in the real world triggers emotional fears and cognitive programming enough to blocks people from logic and from following genuine evidence. Perhaps films that picture the conspiracies in a realistic way run the risk of revealing reality without its mask of sanity?

Watch and enjoy!

Watched this on Netflix, not expecting much. Well, it's really pretty good! I was entertained. The guy playing Mims really showed some range, and Chris Meloni was great as always. Recommended for an evening when there's sod all on the TV and you just want to relax and watch a decent film.

I was a little nervous going into this movie after reading all the reviews (largely negative), but was pleasantly surprised. OK, there was some bad acting on Bruce Willis' part but other members of the cast; Christopher Meloni, Dave Bautista et al made up for it. It was a great story with a good twist at the end. If you're a movie "sommelier" analyzing films for cinematography, acting etc... then you'll walk away with your nose in the air but if, like most people, you don't really care about the legs or the bouquet of your wine, you'll enjoy watching this. I don't normally bother writing reviews for movies but felt this movie was unfairly reviewed.

It would have made a great 10 episode series but too much information, characters and plot lines for one sitting. Good actors and camera work but fails to make sense in the end. I feel like it was pitched as a series but the accountants decided to make it into a movie.

Not a movie buff but since I live in the Cincinnati area I wanted to see this one. Enjoyed it. Could tell it wasn't a big budget movie but with the stars that were in it I thought it played out well. It kept me interested which is hard to do.
