I have been in love with Elite Squad since the first time I watched it back in 2009. I even had the theme song playing on my iPod during the regular runs. When they announced the making of Elite Squad 2, I had some reservations, especially with the trailer. So they promoted Captain Nascimento, giving command in comfortable suits. Also because the first film was so successful and the sequel may run the risk of what most sequels truly are, money-milking devices with rotten scripts.
Elite Squad 2 proves me wrong. What an explosive and matured film it is! Deserves it's place as Brazilian's all-time highest grossing film. I'm still reeling from the images of the film and the gaze of Wagner Moura; a man devoid of soul.
This was Elite Squad,
the Sequel,
and the main theme, my running anthem.
