Doca, Danillo, Carlinhos, Branco and Samuel are five policemen working undercover at the Complexo do Alemão, an area which gathers several slums and is considered one of the most dangerous places in Rio de Janeiro. Their operation goes wrong after the government threatens to raid the place using military vehicles, which leads drug lord Playboy to cut off all the slum's communications, leaving them unable to contact their boss, Valadares, forcing them to hide at the basement of Doca's pizzeria.

It feels one-sided, specially today -- and it leaves an ugly impression given the lethality of police operations in recent years. That said, it works as an expensive siege actioner -- despite the subjective cam shootouts and simple dialogue exchanges that try too hard to be kinetic and tense -- but some characters are clearly miscast -- Playboy's Cauã Reymond -- and script seems to avoid some complexities. Belmonte applies his fav theme -- failure -- to public security and gets mixed results.
