Elite Squad 2 Reaction 

Two important informations... the director from this movie had to go live in USA after the exhibition of the second one because the militia came after him... the last 4 governors of Rio de Janeiro are in jail...

Bope officers had a huge participation in all scenes. In fact, the film was based on the book by a former BOpe captain called Rodrigo Pimentel, who co-produced the film with director Padilha. Pimentel had a great influence on all the scenes and the process of adapting the script. Many things from both (elite squads I and II) were based on Piment's (and other colleagues') personal experience. I know it must be difficult for an American to believe that these things are not an action fiction movie, but rather a normal and 100% real day in Rio de Janeiro. Today, October 23, 34 buses were set on fire in Rio, in an act of revenge for the death of a militia leader in a confrontation with the police… The film is very important for people outside of Rio to see why there are so many deaths among police officers and how violent and brutal it is to be part of an elite police squad in this city. As an American, imagine dealing with death and intense armed confrontations every day for your entire career, for 15 to 20 years. An army soldier typically does a 3-6 month tour and often returns home with PTA. imagine this shit and its impact on Rio society... violence has become normal... you hear gunshots and act like a normal thing... you might even get used to it, and be able to differentiate the blast sound of a 7.62 from a 5.56 lol

Deputy Fraga is based on a real politician. There is a lot of artistic freedom in the film but the relationship between politicians, militias and drug dealers gangs is very close to what continues to happens until today. There are many Militia Factions and Drug Dealers gangs and they fight among themselves for the control of the favelas.

Finally! Waited for that for months, mane! Don't disappear now.

don' if you remember but there's a subtle scene in the final of the first movie where captain come back home and his wife were left with the baby

Btw, the actor that played Beirada, the inmate that started the prison riot and got shot in the head, is the same one that played Knockout Ned in City of God.

Loved your reaction bro! Keep it up! 👍👏

AYO!!! WELCOME BACK BRO, I STILL AINT SEEN PT 1 I NEED TO CATCH UP

You got to understand this...these movie is not a "good guy/bad guy" adventure. This is an adaptation on RIO DE JANEIRO'S ACTUAL REALITY. That is how REAL politics work, both in Brazil and in the USA. Things are messy and blurred. There are no angels and demons, only humans making decisions and dealing with the consequences.

"André Matias"🥺.

Yup, that's real stuff that happens in Rio every day. Of course, those slums are far from the "real" city, and you won't see this in the postcards.

27:12 Human Rights? Those guys are more animals than humans. What about the human rights of his victims?
