After a bloody invasion of the BOPE in the High-Security Penitentiary Bangu 1 in Rio de Janeiro to control a rebellion of interns, the Lieutenant-Colonel Roberto Nascimento and the second in command Captain André Matias are accused by the Human Right Aids member Diogo Fraga of execution of prisoners. Matias is transferred to the corrupted Military Police and Nascimento is exonerated from the BOPE by the Governor. However, due to the increasing popularity of Nascimento, the Governor invites him to team-up with the intelligence area of the Secretary of Security. Along the years, Fraga, who is married with Nascimento's former wife, is elected State Representative and Nascimento's son Rafael has issues with his biological father. Meanwhile Nascimento and the BOPE expel the drug dealers from several slums but another enemy arises: the militia led by Major Rocha and supported by the Governor, the Secretary of Security and politicians interested in votes. Nascimento is manipulated to help this group, vanquishing the criminals in the slums and poor communities; then the corrupt group of police officers is free to exploit the poor population.

Movie Reviews

Cinema em Cena - 10/10 by Pablo VillaçaEmbora continuação de uma produção de sucesso, o filme tem aspirações muito mais nobres do que apenas arrancar mais alguns trocados do público.
Slant Magazine - 9/10 by Diego SemereneElite Squad: The Enemy Within is pure pedagogic bliss.
Compuserve - 9/10 by Harvey S. KartenExquisitely photographed gunplay barely makes up for a confusing plot.
Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Lisa SchwarzbaumThe pace is quick, the violence is rough, and the visual style is documentary as Padilha hammers home his point: Someone is forever in the pocket of someone else as The System constantly adapts to protect itself.
indieWire - 8/10 by Eric KohnPadilha channeled national frustrations into zeitgeist entertainment. The follow-up, Elite Squad: The Enemy Within, has less success than the first installment in achieving that aim, but still keeps the snazzy combination of spectacle and polemics in check.
Time Out - 8/10 by Sam AdamsBoth responding to and rebutting critics who dubbed its predecessor fascist, José Padilha's superior sequel to 2007's "Elite Squad" doubles down on the kill-'em-all rhetoric while placing its trigger-happy heroes in a larger context.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertHere's a Brazilian thriller that's so angry and specifically political, it's hard to believe they got away with making it.
Portland Oregonian - 8/10 by Shawn LevyIt's fast, it's sure, it's violent and it's fun, even as it sometimes pushes the limits of ready coherence or dramatic plausibility.
The A.V. Club - 8/10 by Alison WillmorePadilha's film has a witheringly low opinion of most people - the gangs are no better than animals, the regular police are gleefully corrupt, the liberal intellectuals are sanctimonious fools, and the politicians are only interested in protecting themselves.
Empire Magazine - 8/10 by Philip WildingA marked improvement on the first film, it's easy to see why this was such a smash in Brazil. Breathless, brutal and thrilling, it's a gut punch of an action movie.
