He is unassuming, and confident, simultaneously. The war on drugs is a cycle that will never stop, the Mexican government is fucked and corrupt.
Her character’s weakness is confusing for the viewer. In the end, they hear gun shots and keep playing like nothing happened, they already know what’s going on. Yet she acted like a child who knew nothing after years of combating the dark side of human kind. Why both creating a diversion using the tunnel when the CIA could easily ship Alejandro over in a helicopter?
I will look elsewhere for a better understanding of this movie I just watched.I do understand, when you say how she looks naive, and unbelievably ignorant. Will it actually change anything or make it worse?
Can you please explain ?And there we are, holding on tight to Alejandro, the only one who really knows what is going on all around us. Helicopter pilot biographies. Because for you, it was all about bigger and better explosions and gun battles. I think I had seen one trailer for the movie months and months earlier, so I think I knew that it was about drugs – and I also knew that Emily Blunt was in it. The fact that it was a shock, but only for a short time (probably how the people living in these areas react to seeing a dead body).
Matt (Josh Brolin), their team lead, doesn’t help to allay Kate’s fears, in fact he regularly works to fan them as their role in the local violence seems solely to continuously make matters worse, or stoke the local flames of violence all the more.
I don’t understand what the meaning of the gunshot was in the end. Right? And since Vietnam, all of our global conflicts have been shaped by our failure in Vietnam (some more than others, unfortunately.)
But you are definitely welcome back after you’ve had an opportunity to watch this amazingly powerful movie.
It was more of a comedy of errors that sat me down to watch this movie, and I had no idea what I was getting into.
I know I knew this because I was struck by how similarly the role was to her recent role in Edge of Tomorrow. At some times she wonders what team she is on, or what she is even doing involved in this chaos inducing rock tumbler of a situation.The movie was entertaining enough, but not great. No, that doesn’t feel right, it’s something else going on here. You are mad at yourself, and you don’t have the guts to do it.just watch this movie. The narration and the constant escalation of events and twists and turns can’t be turned away from.I’m sorry, but you lost me at the sexism. In Vietnam, it was an ideological battle that fueled the grenade launchers and napalm runs. Seriously.“Nothing will make sense to your American ears, and you will doubt everything we do, but in the end, you will understand.”Alright, so that was about as far as the non-viewing passengers should go. Alright, so that’s alright. BTW, the cinematography, music, acting, editing, etc. What made you want to look up sicario? does the drug war continue even after the drug lord is killed??
So I’m not sure when she shoots people, etc, she regrets it. Ok, where do you want to do it? noun. To fight the war, federal agent Matt … But that is where Kate (we) finds herself (ourselves) after all the cards have been played.
But she can reneg and change her testimony, and say she was threatened and assaulted.
I think that’s the underlying theme in this movie, and the CIA and Benecio’s Del Toro’s character understand that because the war on drugs is a vicious cycle, you can’t stop it, you can only “restore order.”What happens in the end? I work overseas in Kabul right now carrying a rifle in armored vehicles. Was that ok? Where the kids were playing soccer. I think this movie is great, but I didn’t love it.
so when I read this, and you pointed out that “We are Kate” , in that moment, It made me realize, that this is about USA perspective.
Sure the mother will be of guidance, but the boys will seek guidance from violent and dominant men who are involved in the war of drugs.
