REVIEW - SERGIO
A drama set in the chaotic aftermath of the US invasion of Iraq, where the life of top UN diplomat Sergio Vieira de Mello hangs in the balance after the bombing of the UN offices in Bhagdad.
Amazing to think that one man brought about so much peace in the world and at the end of the day he was flesh and bones like the rest of us.
Whilst watching this film it was actually scary to see that the US thought that the UN was actually working for them and went against UN advice and was proven to have broken the international treaty on human rights on a significant number of occasions.
Unfortunately after the bombing the UN pulled out of Iraq and civil war broke out leading to ISIS today.
How history could have been changed if this bombing had never of taken place, unfortunately we will never know.

Plot summary
Charismatic and complex, Sergio Vieira de Mello (Wagner Moura) has spent the majority of his storied career as a top UN diplomat working in the world's most unstable regions, deftly navigating deals with presidents, revolutionaries, and war criminals for the sake of protecting the lives of ordinary people. But just as he readies himself for a simpler life with the woman he loves (Ana de Armas),Sergio takes one last assignment - in Baghdad, newly plunged into chaos following the US invasion. The assignment is meant to be brief, until a bomb blast causes the walls of the UN headquarters to come literally crashing down upon him, setting into motion a gripping life-or-death struggle. Inspired by a true story, SERGIO is a sweeping drama focused on a man pushed to his physical and emotional limits as he's forced to confront his own divisive choices about ambition, family, and his capacity to love.

Good biography
Some right wing brazilians are giving low rate to this movie only because Wagner Moura is the actor who plays Sergio and the producer. Besides a great actor and a human being he is active politically and fight against the bad decisions of our actual brazilian government, a terrible one. The movie, overall, is enjoyable, very well acted, delicate and a good introduction in the story of Sergio Vieira de Mello, another great human being. The soundtrack with Cartola and Caetano Velloso is a plus.
sergio
Only reason why i give sergio positive score is thanks to ana de armas since she is becoming one great young tar and i think that she has great future in front of her,but as we talk about film i can say that it isnt very good honestly it was tiresome to me,im not fan of political films since they care more to deliver some message on left or right side and their point of view,and not on what film needs to focus to give good story and interesting subject and characters,romance in a film was rather forced to me and it felt like they wanted to put it on our noses for some reason,sergio was a film worthy just to see ana,but everything else is very mediocore and not impressive
