Just watched this movie for the first time ever. Spectacular movie, very hard to watch but worth it. It may require a re-watch in the near future.

Question - is the sequel City of Men any good or not worth watching?

It's more of a spiritual successor than a true sequel. Kind of like the Oldboy to Lady Vengeance stuff..

It's good. If you enjoyed City of God as a 10 of 10 , I am sure you would enjoy City of Men at about a 7 of 10.

I didn't know there was a sequel and have no interest in watching it. City of God is a great movie, though.

One of the big movies on my list that I have yet to see. I have very high expectations for it from the praise this board has given it.

Still #1 on my favorite movies of all time. I have never had another movie stick with as this one has.

Kinda surprised there hasn't been an American remake yet.

I would suggest Sin Nombre too if you haven't seen it already. It's not on the same level as City of God per se but it has the same rawness.

City of God was interesting, but it was no Menace II Society.

City of Men is good. The story is on a smaller scale
