So I loved the movie, but I have a question about pic related. Was he Delta or SOG?
>>30614741
Not specified.
Nothing else follows.
>>30614755
I'd like to see more of him in the sequel. It was a great movie though, I liked how CIA guy used a Daniel Defense AR.
>>30614741
Fucking newfags
he was meant to look look like Vining
therefore he was Delta
>>30614824
He looks nothing like Vining.
I don't remember it ever being specified, so i just referred to him as OGA.
>>30614854
OGA?
>>30614858
other government asset.
spook shit, usually CIA.
>>30614741
It's too bad firing that AR sounded like a cannon and gave him a mild form of PTSD.
>>30614883
That makes sense.
>>30614888
Have you ever fired an AR? It's traumatizing; I cried for 3 days after I shot one.
>>30614741
Who cares? It was a shit movie
>>30614961
I thought it was pretty good besides the FBI cunt. Why didn't you like it?
>>30614741
>safety off
>Eotfail

>>30614998
The thing that gets me about all these movies is the use of full auto. Especially when they never change magazines.
Anybody have a link to fbi crime statistics where they show how many people have been killed by cops per year, broken down by race
>>30614998
Ive seen many HRT operatives use single points first hand. Literally nothing wrong with them in a tactical situation.
>>30614971
The reason she was in the reason was to basically be a pretext for the CIA to operate domestically. In that context, they picked her because she was young, naive, and emotionally shook up from the recent violence she experienced. She was an easy mark, and they used her easily.
She was basically an ACLU member in the movie - she never evolved at all. Even at the end of the film, when everything she believed told her to shoot the guy... she let him walk away without taking a shot. Why? The only reason was because it was against the law. She wanted to do it, she believed it would make the world a better place... but she couldn't do it because it was against the law. That was her objection to everything the joint task force accomplished in the film. Nothing she experienced changed her one bit.
As far as the task force, I think the logic of their actions was not made clear enough. In the real world, our forces target the cartels that attack our normal citizens, or our forces. The cartels know that doing "x" will result in being moved to the top of the hit list. Other cartels will be armed or given passes by the Mexicans at our instructions, and they will beat you on the streets as a result. Plus, we will use our technology to hunt you and kill you.
The goal is not to stop the cartels, but to make them play as nice as possible, and keep the violence as low as possible. The movie should have made that a tad more clear, but they did mention it.
>>30615060
I never understood why people hate them so much.
If I recall, I believe he was supposed to be DEA.
>>30615097
Yeah I wish the FBI woman would have understood that. I honestly saw nothing wrong with what the task force did. The war on drugs is a failure and keeping order is all the government can hope for unless they change their policy.
>>30615100
Mostly because they're garbage for anything other than being good for transitioning shoulders while shooting, which:
A. Not everybody trains to do to begin with
B. Makes it useless for actually carrying the firearm
Same reason the 3 point sling is garbage, only in reverse.
>>30615030
My eight year old daughter is capable of finding that information with nothing more than a 9volt battery, steel wool, her doll, and Google. If you are not capable of finding that information, you should really put some effort into getting better at it. Unless you aren't White or Asian, in which case just throw around insults and blame others for your shortcoming.
>>30615113
That's disappointing, DEA is the most bluepilled federal agency.
>>30614741
He was CIA like Brolin's character.
>>30615113
>tapco
>>30615113
Nope
>>30615153
Getting paid to get paid. Like the guy bailing water out of the Titanic. Never making a dent.
>>30615100
because if you're rucking somewhere or doing other tasks than operating, then your gun bounces all over the place and bangs off of everything.
they're totally fine for transitioning to and from vehicles and escorts and times when you'll have your gun in your hands for the most part.
for everything else a 2 point is superior
>>30615129
Ibe been looking for fbi statistics for an hour and can't find any that specifically highlight cops killing people separated by race, just people shooting at police in general and general homocides. I've looked at all the expandable homocides tables
>>30615182
>Nope
According to IMFDB he's apparently DEA.

>>30615153
>this nigga
>>30615200
Rogue American apperal makes a 2/1 point transition sling that can do both
>>30615228
They are fighting a war without end. Without a US change in drug policy they will not make a dent in the drug war.
>>30615231
Magpul makes one too.

>>30615016
If you actually watched the movie you'd know they overwhelmly used semi-auto fire during the movie, with only sparse full-auto action during the tunnel scene.
>>30615376
I know but the use of it at all bothers me. I wouldn't imagine Delta would use it in a situation like that, but than again I'm not an operator so I don't know.
>>30615394
No, but you are a nigger. Why wouldn't they? They were specifically told to make noise so Alejandro could slip by while all hell is breaking loose.
>>30615376
>>30615394
Also the FBI cunt used it in the beginning scene where she almost got blasted with the shotgun.
>>30615376
>gucci tactical wear and accessories
Fuck that movie
He looks like a spy version of Micheal Weston.
>>30615420
>that picture
Kek
Also I understand that, but weren't they also trying to kill everyone in the tunnel?
>>30615428
He was a Colombian hitman, why would he be dressed as an operator?
>>30615437
>but weren't they also trying to kill everyone in the tunnel?
I'm sure that's an added bonus. But the objective I recall was to create enough chaos that he could slip by and give him enough time to get his shit together and use the cop car to gtfo.
>>30614741
Hes special activities division
>>30615524
That makes a lot more sense, thank you for clearing that up for me.
>>30614741
That's Michael Weston
He used to be a spy u till he got burned
>>30615113
>>30615596
Movie would have been a billion times better if mustache Mike replaced F.B.I chick.
After seeing him 80 times on /k/ I thought he was gonna be way more prominent, not just 10mins if cock tease and shooting fish in a barrel.
Didn't need all that "we had to use you to work within the law" shit. They could have had a super operator movie
>>30615690
I agree, the FBI woman was the worst part of the entire movie. She wouldn't have been as bad if we could have seen her tits.
>>30615703
>if we could have seen her tits.
They changed the script, anon. Otherwise we would've.
>>30615703
We need a mustache Mike/deltoro sequel.
Like Way of the Gun but less street level operating and more ridiculous wasting cartel members
>>30615097
>>30615124
The point of the joint force strategy was clearly spelled out. It was to keep the cartels fighting each other, additionally, it was about the CIA paying a favor to a 'friendly' cartel's sicario.
FBI bitch was retarded to show that liberal politics get BTFO when you're neck deep in a shitty unwinnable war.
>>30615886
There is going to be a sequel focusing more on Del Toro's character. Josh Brolin will be in it too, and the FBI cunt won't be in it.
>>30614998
in that scene he is about to shoot some foos
but also, it's a movie and /k/ needs to stop worshiping characters who don't exist and the people they represent that don't exist, in the US anymore, either.
No mention of the movies namesake?
The sicarii were one of the most /k/ groups in history.
Taking out the roman empire one stabbing at a time!
>>30615946
Thanks for the advice dad.
>>30615113
>the thing most people don't know about spys is that most of the job is waiting
>but sometimes you get confused for a DEA operator and have to shoot some cartel members
>>30615200
Why are you ruck marching with your weapon bouncing around in the first place? What the hell kind of training is that?! Hold it in two hands and rest it on your magazine pouches if you have to. Jesus.
>>30615958
No problem, kiddo. Sorry I missed soccer practice, I was busy cheating on your mother with your gay uncle. I was on top, I'm not a fag like you, son.
>>30616039
That low ass plate carrier doe...
>>30616039
It's okay, I don't really play soccer. It's an excuse for me to go to gay nightclubs. I am safe about it like you showed me to be, I wear my plate carrier and a condom for protection.
>>30616039
I used to keep it over my shoulder personally.
It was comfortable.
>>30614888
Oosh that 1488
>bums cigarette
>takes two puffs
>god I need a cigarette
>>30615909
And its going to be terrible.
It'll be an action film where all your wildest fanfics on them operating come true.
There wont be build up. There wont be much of anything else because everyone missed the point of Blunt's character and everyone cried about the lack of action vs the rest of the film.
>>30616266
I get the point of her character but she was still a whiney cunt.
>>30615376
that and I think people have no real idea how easy 5.56 is to control in full auto on targets 3 feet from your face.
people are applying fundamentals designed to keep idiot soldiers from wasting ammo or shooting themselves to top tier movie operators. I'm pretty sure full auto means alot of bullets in someones gut very easily at short range. if youre looking at 3-5 guys close to you when you know you can easily engage with full auto, you want to put alot of bullets in each of them as fast as possible. mozambique drilling 2 guys is gonna be slower and less feasable than putting 5-6 rounds in each and moving on.
>>30614741
Does it matter
>>30616370
Does anything on this website matter?
>>30615907
I really don't understand why this movie was so seemingly shocking and controversial to the normies.
Anyone that felt disturbed by the content and message of the movie was simply living a fantasy with their head in the ground about the reality we see every day on liveleak.
The CIA did nothing wrong. They're "good" men doing what is necessary to maintain order in a shit situation that they have no power to truly change. The Sicario is what happens when a good man is turned hollow.
>>30616409
Exactly. Just like the CIA guy said, unless people decide to stop doing drugs then keeping order is the best situation they can hope for.
>>30616409
>their head in the ground about the reality we see every day on liveleak.
Not that anon but I understand what you're saying but most people don't go on LL, aside from bullshit on social media and some other random shit, they know fuck all about Zetas beheadings or chainsaw executions. Out of sight, out of mind. Not shocked they were shocked.
>>30616409
>The CIA did nothing wrong.
BULL FUCKING SHIT
The company is to blame for a metric shit ton of fuck ups. Go read legacy of ashes.
>>30616451
not /pol/, but in general we're in an age of such political correctness that people will go out of their way to make themselves believe that countries and affairs that America intervenes in are always the victim and not the problem.
i'm not out to say all mexicans, muslims, africans, etc are troublemakers, but in america the average person only hears about them in the form of the media portraying our interventions in a positive or negative way. people believe dumb shit they see on TV regardless of the source, think about it, then continue to spread the idea without ever once confirming the information from another source - while automatically being biased against the opposing opinion.
>>30615200
They never rucked anywhere in the movie. Youre nitpicking
>>30616451
This. My rich aunt that lives in SoCal talks about moving to Mexico and tries to tell me it's safe. She doesn't watch or read the news either. It's like she lives in a different world.
>>30616489
We are just talking about what they did in this movie.
>>30616489
I mean in the context of the movie. You have a small CIA operation essentially running around putting out fires caused by previous decades of CIA policy, all while they probably are being sabotaged in the big picture by another wing of the agency. They're just people doing what needs to be done.
One only needs to look at the games the pocket wars the spooks have run, and the supply lines they inherited or otherwise formed relations with, to get an understanding of the broader picture.
>>30616527
I've heard from people who have actually visited or lived in Mexico that it's fine if you live in the major cities and aren't a drug dealer or some shit yourself.
>>30616495
Look at the knee-jerk reaction Duterte has caused among idiots who only read foreign headlines on reddit.
>>30616656
Yeah but she is a good looking white woman. I feel like that would make her way more of a target.
>>30615097
I think you missed her whole character's arc there buddy. She didn't shoot him because she knew he was right. They used morally shitty evil methods that went against everything she fought and believed in, but they got results. After witnessing this first hand, it destroys her naivete. She wants to shoot him because he made her go against everything she believed in. She doesn't because he's accomplishing what he good-guy methods never could.
>>30614883
Other Government Agency.
>>30614805
What sequel?
>>30615213
There's a book that recently came out called The War On Cops that specifically break down what you're asking about. From what I've heard there's some statistics that state as of last year 498 white people were killed by cops, as apposed to appx 250+ black people. And of those 250+ black people killed by cops, 80% were during a commission of a violent crime.
>>30616867
They are making one now I think. They will be focusing more on Del Toro's character. Josh Brolin will be in it too.
>>30616266
>There wont be build up. There wont be much of anything else
I don't recall asking for buildup, or background or lessons. Sicario set all of that shit up already. Now it's time for 120 minutes of slick ass operating.
>>30616867
Sicario 2: Cartel Abloobloobloo
>>30616806
I find this view of her character closer to what was portrayed. Though its one of those things that can be subjective and influenced by our mindset or view of things, I don't think >>30615097 in necessary wrong either.
>>30615611
Lol nice, someone saved one of my shoops.

Rick moranis couldn't lose enough weight before the film so he lost the role. Hopefully vining doesn't find me and kill me for saying this.
