Excellent fucking movie. You fucks told me this was feminist propaganda when it's actually the opposite.
>tfw same cinematographer and director are doing BLADE RUNNER 2.
Really wasn't that good outside of the cinematography and sound design.
Also, I'm not sure how it could possibly be construed as "feminist propaganda" considering the female lead gets bullied and fucked over in literally every scene.
>you will never hang out with Brolin and Alejandro
Why bother living?
>>64123057
>ywn ever get spit-finger ear raped by Del Toro
JUST
>You fucks told me this was feminist propaganda when it's actually the opposite.
only a plebbitor tourist would tell you something like that
plebs will call it boring because there wasnt any laser swords or capes and big explosions
is this /tv/ approved MOTY?
>everyone talking about blade runner 2 when villeneuve comes up
>no mention of based Ted Chaing and his adaptation of Stories of Your Life
Probably my favorite film of the year.
The tension in the theater was unbelievable.
The movie also uses very subtle storytelling techniques I rarely see.
Lots of foreshadowing in this film.
Was a nice breathe of fresh air.
>>64123057
>You fucks told me this was feminist propaganda when it's actually the opposite
It isn't propaganda for any type of gender politics you fucking idiot.
>>64123057
Brolin was too smug though
>>64123146
Me neither. Maybe it was a troll but I remember an OP on /tv/ saying Blunt is typical strong character in Sicario. When it in fact breaks the stereotype of the tough female lead that takes no shit. Fucking honest movie.
>>64123237
Yes.
>>64123116
>>64123275
She isn't strong or weak - she's simply in over her head.
>>64123146
...and slowly my eyes began to open...
>>64123250
i heard about this. is the story any good?
Movie of the year. Del Toro was operator as fuck.
from the trailer, the first and second scene it seemed like your typical "woman can be badass too" movie but then it went the opposite direction and bro-lin made it 10\10 movie
>>64123237
Definitely for me atleast.It has lower Rottentomatoes and IMDB score than Star Wars, what the fuck?
>>64123237
If you're a first year film student redditor yes
best shooter is best
>>64123345
She's actually quite strong in that she's willing to stick to her moral code even when it shits her in the face. It's just that her moral code would've gotten her killed in less than a day out there.
>>64123274
That's the best part
>>64123275
You guys are deluded. Blunt is not yet strong as any man hero ever, but she's definitely a won battle and a step forward for feminists. She's way way stronger than a woman would realistically be allowed to be. In the end she's actually made to look like a martyr, she's still THE good guy, the men all of them are dirty scums.
>>64123421
I THOUGHT YOU WERE DONE WITH THE CIA MICHAEL. YOU SAID YOU WERE GETTING OUT
>>64123421
Mike Vining is proud, son.
>>64123421
lol nerd
What are some other movies with based as fuck operators?
>>64123250
Sounds amazing.
>Cinematographer is not based Deakins.
Not going to be well shot though.
>>64123116
It's somewhat troubling that Villeneuve cannot direct action scenes.
Can the people who like it explain why it's good? The plot and reveal weren't original or shocking, the characters weren't developed and the "operator" scenes everyone praises weren't even that good and don't make up for the other shit.
>>64123453
>In the end she's actually made to look like a martyr, she's still THE good guy, the men all of them are dirty scums.
No, she's made to look like a naive idealist. Not sure how she's a martyr when she literally compromises her morals in the final scene to save her own life. The film doesn't portray Blunt as anything other than a woman who makes impulsive, stubborn decisions and doesn't understand the world she's been thrown into.
>She's way way stronger than a woman would realistically be allowed to be
What the fuck does this even mean?
>>64123421
Mike Vining must have been the inspiration for this guy.
>>64123572
To be fair, FBI is severely restricted on what to do outside of the U.S borders, so it's just her not wanting to lose her job.
>>64123563
The atmosphere and the approach of show-don't tell pulled me over. In the beginning, there is a five-minute car ride into Juárez. There is no dialouge. It's a simple car ride. But this event alone tells you more than any information dump ever would. I enjoy that approach to film. The ending had a similar scene with the shootout in the cave where the dialouge took backseat for what was shown.
>>64123563
>The plot and reveal weren't original or shocking
they don't need to be shocking to be good. It felt original to me, what other movie plays like this?
For me, I liked it for
>gritty realism
>cinematography is top tier
>you can cut the tension with a knife
>Emily Blunt's character works as a fish out of water, and not some crazy feminist hero.
The whole highway scene feels as though you were witnessing the event from her eyes.
>strong overarching theme
>>64123275
Will you Americans be ever able to look past gender of main character and have no expectation on how that character is supposed to act because it is of said gender?
Jesus fuck, a subversion now means that a female character isn't a super soldier. Why don't you complain how retarded the script is, say something legitimate.
I CAN'T DISCUSS MOVIES ANYMORE BECAUSE AN AMERICAN WILL START SHIT FLINGING AROUND CHARACTER'S SEX FUCK YOUR MEDIA FUCK YOU
>>64123563
Its the mr robot of movies.
It had no story or characters, it just looked extremely good.
So basically its the same as transformers and big badass explosions for people who want to pretend theyre smart on the internet.
>>64123572
>her morals in the final scene to save her own life.
No one would blame her for saving her life. She doesn't kill Alejandro though when she gets the chance because she's not sure he's actually right when he was telling her they need to bend the law a bit to not let the world go to utter shit. She's trying to do the right thing, but those snakes confused her.
>>64123714
>reading comprehension
I never said I blamed her, I said that she is not a martyr
>>64123687
>It had no story or characters, it just looked extremely good.
maybe if you have down syndrome
I would write out how wrong you are but I honestly think you're probably too dumb to grasp the basic concepts of a script or story.
>>64123714
>but those snakes confused her.
What? If anything, those "snakes" saved her from her little bubble of delusions.
>>64123687
>It had no story or characters
That is a ridiculous exaggeration. Most movies are not good at every aspect of filmmaking
>>64123687
This is why having so many Star Wars threads is a bad idea. It brings shitters like this.
Why didn't the CIA man just tell the two of them that they are just temporary assets in case shit hits the fan instead of beating around the bush?
>>64123538
Collateral Damage
>>64123149
>missing the whole point of how they were both degenerate horrible human beings
>>64123774
She wasnt deluded in trying to stick to the rules. Those faggot were deluded fedora tippers edgy nihilists in thinking they can rise above the law in certain conditions just to save the world.
OUTTA MY WAY FBI FUCKING SHITS
>>64123888
>making the world a better place by removing narco scum
>degenerate horrible human beings
>>64123956
They weren't removing narcos, they were propping the old Colombian cartel back into power
>>64123933
And you don't think they tried to play with the rules aswell? Her sticking to the rules would've saved no one but her ego. Matt and Alejandro had become demons but that's what being exposed to the darkest shit known to man will do to you. They are both men of their times and place. She wasn't.
>>64123888
>missing the whole point of how they were both degenerate horrible human beings
Are you thick headed?
The things they were doing were necessary evil.
Idealists like Blunts character have nice morals but they mean shit all to monsters like the cartel owners
>>64123987
You're right, I'm sorry.
>>64123970
I think it was just the CIA using the monsters they could find to do their dirty work. "Medellin" was just a code word.
>>64123793
He probably meant the characters weren't developed and the story was shit.
The most useless duo ever.
>>64124001
No such thing as necessary evil , just evil my friend.
>>64124160
that's an idealistic way to put it.
you're Emily Blunt in this scenario.
How much you think Delta squad gets payed to do an operation like in the movie?
>>64123859
He didn't want to make them lose face, hurt their egos, so he spared their feelings.
It backfired, because they're idiots.
>>64124001
>The things they were doing were necessary evil.
Killing the cartel owner's entire family in front of him was a "necessary evil"?
>>64124134
>He probably meant the characters weren't developed
Oh God this useless fucking statement again. Here's something to think about; A good character isn't a "deep" character. A good character is one that has a certain role in the story and is integral to the presentation of the story. Treating character development as some universal marker on how to rate films is fucking kindergarten-tier reviewing.
>>64124157
>FBI agents can't keep up with CIA SAD and Delta Force
How is this surprising?
>>64124188
A six pack of Bud Lite and a carton of hotpockets. Each.
>>64124196
Not true since during Blunt's first CIA ops they had cowboy DEA marshalls with them and they were told that they just accessories just like her.
>>64124188
Aren't they salaried?
>>64124204
>Killing the cartel owner's entire family in front of him was a "necessary evil"?
that was on Del Toro's character, not the US.
>>64124259
DEA marshals aren't dainty lil ladies like the Bluntress.
>>64124266
In the motel room wasn't the squad leader asking Brolin if he wanted to discuss pay and he said we can talk after the opt
>>64124188
>payed
>>64124280
The post you responded to was talking about Del Toro's character. Learn how to fucking read
>>64124288
DEA are just pencil pushers unlike the FBI only in this case the latter became pencil pushers to the CIA.
Seeing Blunt get BTFO by Operator Taco was the high point of the movie.
>>64124085
No, Brolin said that it was all part of the plan to bring them back and gain some semblance of order
>>64124157
Not their fault. They were following the law.
>>64124280
Del Toro is neccessary evil. He did a lot of good too. He saved Blunt numerous times. He tried to play soft with those that he could. And he definitely did more good to the world than FBI ever could.
>>64124441
Wasn't that just explaining the Medellin code-word they dropped? Either way, what they were doing was going to help far more people than the idealistic bullcrap FBI brought to the table.
>>64123057
it's really not feminist propaganda if anything it has a not so subtle conservative agenda
the sequence from pic related is the best tension I've seen in a long time, holy shit that's some scary looking marero
>>64124513
>what they were doing was going to help far more people than the idealistic bullcrap FBI brought to the table.
Are you serious? The only party it helps is the US government. You think the CIA gives a shit about Mexicans killing each other in Juarez? The FBI exists and operates as it does for a reason. Obviously the agency wasn't designed to combat global, multi-billion dollar criminal syndicates (which is why it generally doesn't).
>>64124879
>You think the CIA gives a shit about Mexicans killing each other in Juarez?
Yes they do. Having gang wars just a few kilometers from the border is alarming.
>>64123314
>>64123438
how do you schedule the production of a movie when you're dependent on the weather giving you artistic clouds to film?
>>64123057
Why is he laughing?
would it have been better with a male lead though
timothy olyphant or christian bale maybe
>>64126615
They need to retain that muh laws and by the book feeling. Easier done with a woman imo.
>you will never walk into a room full of stiff suits with your flip flops because you're CIA and they're a bunch of state level shits
>you will never get to ask invasive and inappropriate questions to female employees while you're sitting back slouched in your chair while she's trying to appear professional

No, he was asking about ROE - rules of engagement.
Then during the op they said ROE was "weapons free" and then it panned to Blunt looking freaked out.

Nothing shot back at them, in case you failed to notice.

>>64127465
>cartel a good boy he dindu nuffin'!
what was the point of showing the spic cop story

The border crossing scene is damn near perfect.
>>64130514
No. CIA is afraid of the FBI, don't let them fool you into thinking otherwise.
>>64130514
I was expecting some shit to go down before the border op was "over", after she said she'd tell the truth.
They were still in wolf country, they could have said she was taken out during the op.
>>64130637
The CIA could shit on the FBI and get away with it

It becomes feminist when it has nothing to offer in the way of leadership by example other than that you can trust women to be logical and principled--if that were true marriage and a society to enforce it would never have been needed. Also the focus on "bullying in the workplace/home" and "women have it tough", "emotions don't hinder they help" memes are the bread and butter of feminism.
It's axiomatically feminist without showcasing it.

>>64132496
Well do you think Blunt would have agreed to the op if they found out they were just using her?

That was the cover, mate. Subtextually they wanted them to hang around but not fuck things up - that's specifically why they didn't want the lawyer.

Then what is "Other Joe" to him? A boyfriend?
>>64132538
Yes, she may not agree with their methods but once she knew who she was dealing with everything will be swept under the rug. 3/4 of the movie is about Blunt being kept in the dark until her nigga stepped in and they gave him a half-assed answer.
He should have told her that he's CIA and he's going to fuck up the cartels so bad and she's free to fuck off if she can't do it. Instead Brolin's character just fucked around with shitty excuses even though Blunt knows that she's in spooky special ops.
The "need to know basis" cliche killed whatever little teamwork, trust and camaraderie they had.
Do you really believe a FBI agent would turn down a once in a lifetime operation with the real big boys even though they're just there to cover their asses legally?
>>64132627
After the Juarez mission she wasn't needed anymore
>>64133370
Yeah because Blunt was a by-the-book person and wouldn't support assassination and would say that he has to stand trial.
>>64133464
She was only by the book because she actually thought and believed that she has a role in the team.
Does she take his advice and move to practice police work elsewhere where law still matters?
>>64133806
In the epilogue she moves to England and joins their special forces in the fight against illegal aliens

My nigga Dodd Gerhardt was capping them wetbikes.
And yeah this movie was good. I like how weak Emily Blunts character turned out to be. It was realistic on that aspect. But this nigga she had hanging around not smashing that divorced ass and stuck in the friendzone, baka. No nigga with a cool ass job like that would be simping on that bitch like that.

>>64123057
It was a good movie, great shots like the one where theyre in the desert at night with silhouettes, Sound was fucking haunting, like dread at every corner. However the movie felt like it was missing an entire act and ended too quickly.
>>64136012
I was sitting up straight in my chair only a few min into the movie. The music in the movie just fills you with dread and makes you anxious because you know shit's going down.

It is my MOTY by far.
It hate how in the end Del Toro he straight up tells her she reminds him of her daughter. I don't know, it's just a small bit I'm nitpicky about. It wasn't necessary. It was already perfect when he told her she looks like a scared little girl (after him telling her she reminds him of someone he loves very much earlier in the film then after us finding out what happened to his daughter).
I know it's not a big deal whatsoever, but it kind of ruined the bit for me.
>>64137592
they deserve it for that reason, yea im edgy
>>64137749
>It hate how in the end Del Toro he straight up tells her she reminds him of her daughter.
Wow, I botched that sentence. Whatever, you guys saw the movie, you know what I'm talking about.
>>64137781
b-but they don't have a choice ;_;.
I guess they could run away but then they would probably be found and tortured and killed by a rival cartel
>>64137749
She already knew that Mexioperator lost his family and is now working as a CIA hired gun.
>>64137749
>>64137879
Its also important because hes basically saying his daughter was a perfect girl ignorant of sin until sin destroyed her in a vat of acid, which was what he was going to do to her if she didn't sign that paper and accept the escape that hes giving her that her daughter didn't get.
>>64137945
He wasn't going to shoot her, he just spooked her off
>>64137879
I know. I'm just commenting on the fact that the first line of him saying she reminded her of someone he lives dearly, earlier in the film, would have had more weight without him holding our hand through the connection by outright saying she reminds him of his daughter at the end. It was implied as soon as he said the line about her looking like a scared little girl or whatever. Just a small thing that made me pout.
>>64138032
Pshhh. Okay.
>>64138049
>I'm just commenting on the fact that the first line of him saying she reminded *him of someone he *loves dearly
Fucking phone.
>>64138080
She's already mentally spent from being shot and beaten up by the same group she was a part of
Even if she signed the paper it means jackshit since she can say that she was threatened with a gun to sign it
A good tweest is that she should have shot him instead of pussying out
>>64138151
I think he would've killed her.

He doesn't have a gun
>>64135269
I'm pretty sure he was just trying to murder her and was using the one night stand as his way in.
>>64138238
He had it pressed to her jaw, f a m.
>>64138275
I'm talking about the scene in the end where Blunt points a gun at him, the entire scene before that was a bluff
>Hey FBI, one of your agents committed suicide
>>64138309
Oh. Why was the prior scene a bluff?
>she cant even pull the trigger
emilys pretty sad desu
>>64131376
This
But does Emily Blunt get violated?
>>64138385
They have nothing to gain if she dies and the paper she signed is basically paperweight, a last minute pottery since she was doing things by the book
If she was being a burden they could have left them both and claim that they were KIA by the cartels
Even if Josh's character was chaotic neutral he was quick to react when he figured out that only the nigga came back and quickly went back to look for her, when she punched him he could have shot and injured her but instead he locked her shot torso to prevent further bleeding while explaining why they have to do this shit
tl;dr Blunt should have been sent to the Farm instead of hopping immediately with the CIA

>>64127285
FBI are just glorified police officers at best, senpai
>>64138818
Source?
>>64130728
Yeah, but who wants all that paperwork?
>>64131376
What about the black guy? The truth is you could have had anyone in the woman's role and the movie would not have changed.
Well it'd have to replace the corrupt cop trying to take her out but still.
Why did Alejandro stick his crotch in the dudes face? Is this a mexican show of dominance?
>>64142504
It's humiliating, idiot.
>>64127347
collateral, no country for old men, Haywire is not very similar but I love it.
>>64123237
after Youth.yes.

Del Toro loves his operating

Intimidation/humilation
How would you feel if you were tied up in a chair and you had another dude's business thrust in your face? And don't say "turned on," because if you nuzzled up to that shit you'd get the shit kicked out of you

Shit accurately posted
>>64129305
Juarez was literally like that in 2010.
All the equipment, gun accessories and vehicles are indicative of this.
>>64143202
Juarez is still pretty much a hellhole
>that cinematography on the approach to the tunnel
>>64143297
For real? Thought shit got cleaned up.
>>64143374

heeheehee, silly gringos...
>>64127347
go watch Michael Mann's films which by the way were an obvious inspiration for this film
Sicario is my MOTY
>>64143374
>434 people reported murdered in Juarez last year
>this is an improvement over the 530 reported murdered in 2013
Juarez is hell on earth. At least ISIS doesn't skin people alive and write "TRAITOR" in the streets using the dead person's entrails
ISIS is despicable, but they have nothing to lose. When money is involved, people will stop at nothing to get it back

You are awonderful man
>>64143519
>At least ISIS doesn't skin people alive and write "TRAITOR" in the streets using the dead person's entrails
They would if they had the patience.
ISIS prefers burning people alive.

>The ending had a similar scene with the shootout in the cave where the dialouge took backseat for what was shown.
Oh yeah man, I'm really glad the dialogue took a backseat to the action in a shootout scene. It's really rare to see that happen.
No but seriously, the movie was shit. No amount of desert cinematography and shoehorned political messages can save this turd of a movie. Del Toro was the only half decent thing about the movie.

>Oh yeah man, I'm really glad the dialogue took a backseat to the action in a shootout scene
Missed the point. It wasn't just the action. It was the chilling build-up. And it wasn't even an action scene. It felt like one but it was more about suspense. The viewer is kept in the dark in the tunnels.
>>64143519
I almost want to blame the victims and ask why so many people go against the cartels when this is always the outcome.
