Im confused

Benicio's character raped that guy in the interrogation scene. Anyone who's seen a few movies in their life knows how context clues work and figured this.

Then there's a pocket of niggas who got off the short bus and askin questions

The positive is we finally figured out who be the dudes askin those questions u see when you google a movie ending

'So, who actually WAS Keyser Soze??! Like I get the part about the foot but...."

Man Del Toro is gonna nick that Best Supporting Actor award at the Oscars. He was the Sicario (the hitman). Ironic he won his first Oscar for another film about drug trafficking (Traffic) 15 years ago

Dope film even though the current Mayor of Juarez ordered a boycott of the film saying it tarnished his tourism dollars

Emily Blunt is a fine actress and fits well in action roles. Roger Deakins killed it with the cameras

I liked the realism as well

4/5 stars

Saw this last weekend. Best movie of 2015 even though I saw it late. Nice to see Shane from twd getting work.

I know Benicio Del Toro is the cooler character but Josh Brolin's performance was my fave. He went from likable to straight up no fucks given about how Emily Blunt felt and both were equally believable.
 
I said it in another thread what also made this movie pop was that they humanized the characters in tandem with making it just another day.. there was no grand mission accommplished at the end it was more of a day in the life of agent/criminals/ and the people of the villages/cities living THEIR everyday life.. and the end scene crystallized that point

Who goes to Juarez as a tourist?

Wasnt it named murder capital of the world a few years back?

Yeah it was but he said the murder rates had fallen since about 2012 or some shit like that

There was also complaints about how the Mexicans were depicted in the film
 
It's actually the most uncompromising view of the drug trade and the US govt's real role in it to date. For that reason I do think it might be too much for some people. Particularly patriots.

The murder-rates were higher in 2012, but that city isn't safe. I lived 45 minutes from that border for a few years and was told by people from Juarez that there was nothing there for me. That if I didn't speak Spanish or have family there, then there was no reason to go.

Lots of good people from Juarez, but that shit is not a tourist destination unless you're an underage Mexican-American looking for your first taste of the night-life. @blacksamson could probably verify that.

Juarez is in the middle of the desert and it's not pretty. I just cant imagine that shit being a tourist destination.
 
I'm pretty cynical when it comes to politicians but I feel like it's easier for that mayor to condemn an ugly truth about his city than to actually use that as a platform to initiate change.

Border towns being fucked up is as much America's problem as it is Mexico's. Dude summed it up in the movie when he said this was their way of containing the problem until 1/3(?) of the population can stop doing drugs. One of the many scenes where Josh Brolin was serving up cold ether.

Thur-Sat Juarez was my place when I was under 21 when i was stationed in EP...but life was alot different in 04-07, was still dangerous but not like now
 
Got my tardy pass. I wanted to see this at the movies back in 2015, but life got in the way and I completely forgot. Just watched this last night with my homegirl. I knew this shit was going to be dope. Just like I knew Smokin Aces and Next Day Air would be. Love movies like this that aren't blockbusters and that have substance and sometimes fly under the radar.

I can't believe all that so Alexandro could get some get back against Sonara, while using the FBI as a cover. Yo this movie was so ill. Very rare I enjoy from start to finish. Look forward to Soldado later this year.

Do I have to watch this again? I thought it didn't meet my expectations

If you haven't already, you should, make sure you fully invested with no interruptions.
