Glad I didn't take a lot of the negative reviews about the dancing too seriously. Agreed, it's a bit unorthodox - But it serves to break and accentuate the narrative! I think it was a good touch to a great film! Must watch!

I guess I don't understand the need to insert dance scenes into a movie that is overtly sympathetic to terrorism. It seems that this "take" on actual events is a way for people who agree with terrorists and their methods to demonstrate to the viewer that terrorists are good people.Kill innocent men, women and children? Sure, as long as it is for a politically correct cause. Kill the terrorists who are targeting and killing your civilian population? Those people may not be so good, and people on their side probably deserve to die.Anyone who thinks that the murder of innocent persons is a good thing has a seriously disturbing mental illness.Anyone. Who thinks that. Hitler thought like this. Stalin thought like this. Pol Pot thought like this. Apparently, many in Hollywood think like this.

One of the greatest special forces operations of all time, intertwined with history and politics, directed by the very guy who gave us two of the best SWAT movies - how do you make a movie that's subpar with hand like this?You add a contemporary dance!With so much plot meat cut off and thrown away, the story focuses on zee Germans and their hesitation for most of the movie, and it makes it so boring you'd be more entertained actually reading the wikipedia page about Operation Thunderbolt. Seriously, at least there you won't be distracted with random dance sequences when you're supposed to get some quality suspense time. Argo did it so much better it almost makes me cry as the history behind the Entebbe hijacking is so layered and beautiful in it's own way.It looks like Padilha's trying too hard to disconnect himself from his Tropa de Elite heritage.

Sympathizes with terrorists. Also the director thought he would be creative and mix in a dance scene with the turning point of the film but it ruined the movie.
