To be honest, I just couldn't get into this first installment. Sure, there were a few interesting beats here and there, but when you hold it up against something like City of God or even Pixote? It feels completely inferior—frankly, it was often just tedious, regardless of how much the subject matter actually interests me.
As for Bear in Berlin, that felt like nothing more than a play for political correctness—which, let’s face it, isn't exactly surprising for a place like Berlin.
I'd much rather sit through a sequel to City of God. And speaking of gripping stuff, I really loved that documentary by Padilha about that kid—I can't recall the exact title, maybe it was about the bus hijacking?—where this young homeless kid hijacks a bus and every major news station in Brazil is broadcasting it live. It ended with the cops gunning him down from just a few feet away.
I don't know... there’s just something fundamentally missing from the first Training Day. If I'm being perfectly candid, the whole thing was a bit of a snooze.
Why would anyone write this? Like, what kind of mindset is that? Okay, you mentioned the movie and what happens, but what's the point of spoiling the ending? What does that actually achieve?
If these three movies aren't enough for you, just go watch whatever they put out on TV. Sure, nothing groundbreaking there, but it's pretty decent reading for a fan 🙂

Anderson. He’s still a bit shaken up after that whole mess with the wiring and getting shocked. Barely made it out alive, so he picked that logo to celebrate his narrow escape from death.
