The Man of the Year

An interesting crime flick from Brazil. In essence, The Man of the Year isn't all that special. It's the story of a young boy who rises in the world of crime, but the narration comes with a level of wit and irony that helps to set the film apart from its many peers. The moody cinematography, solid score, and notable performances all do their part in keeping the quality level consistent. It's not the most memorable or exceptional film, but it is an extremely slick and fun crime film, which is sure to please genre fans.
