Sicario

I just saw it a few days ago on Amazon Prime and loved it. I thought Blunt did a fantastic job of being not just the audience surrogate but the surrogate for us as a people. Do we really want to know what needs to be done in that world? And if we face it, what would we do - expose it, join it, or just sign off on it and pretend it isn't happening?

Do you not Villeneuve, bro?

He also directed Prisoners if u haven't seen that one

Also Enemy

watch all of his movies

quote:

---

Benicio del Toro and Emily Blunt were really good in this film.

They were. Benicio del Toro is one of those names that is familiar, but I couldn't have picked him out of a lineup before. But this was certainly a memorable performance.

Sicario borders on masterpiece. There are very, very few parts that are not excellent. Villeneuve is a director who crafts spectacles. He knows well what he wants and how to achieve it. Sicario is filled with his brilliance and is punctuated by an incredibly intense and provocative turn by Del Toro. Blunt is simultaneously weak and strong, and she plays her part to the t. I am blanking right now on the movie's issues, though they exist. I simply loved it.

I loved everything about it. I didn't know anything about the movie when I watched it other than it had been nominated for Best Picture at the time, and I was thoroughly impressed. A real masterpiece.

Should have been

Emily Blount's character thought she was cool cause she smoked.
