Thomas F Franchement bien aimé ce film qui est plus qu'un simple film policier suspense etc etc, il prend au tripes et la real est vraiment cool. Je m'attendais à un énième film policier banal mais c'est sincèrement + que ça ! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/23/25 Full Review Frans B Still the benchmark Sicario. Gripping, fast paced, to the point. Del Toro fits this character like a glove, Emily Blunt and Josh Brolin shines in character, well the whole cast excels. Well assembled and well executed. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/19/25 Full Review Julio R For thriller fans, this is one you can't miss. Binicio's gaze alone tells you the acting talent he's made of. The entire film demonstrates the quality of its craft from start to finish. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Ralph R Sicario is a slow-burning, intense thriller that delivers on tension but falls a bit short when it comes to depth. The story follows an idealistic FBI agent thrown into the brutal world of cartel warfare, where the lines between right and wrong blur fast. The setup is great, and the film builds tension well, but the lack of depth in the cartel, who are the driving force behind the protagonist’s struggles, makes it hard to fully invest in the stakes. While some might appreciate the detached, shadowy approach to the villains, it left me feeling disconnected from the mission itself. Denis Villeneuve’s direction is top-notch, making every scene feel deliberate and atmospheric. The cinematography, led by Roger Deakins, is absolutely stunning, using light, shadow, and vast landscapes to create a haunting visual experience. The action sequences are raw and realistic, with a standout border crossing scene that might be one of the best in modern thrillers. The script, while solid in terms of structure, doesn’t fully flesh out the antagonists, making the conflict feel one-sided. The performances carry the film, with Emily Blunt doing a great job portraying a character out of her depth, even if her arc feels frustrating at times. Benicio del Toro is the real standout, bringing a cold, quiet intensity that dominates every scene he’s in. Josh Brolin nails his role as the laid-back but ruthless government operative, adding just the right amount of charisma. The score, composed by Jóhann Jóhannsson, is heavy and ominous, perfectly complementing the film’s mood. Overall, Sicario is technically brilliant, but its lack of depth in key areas holds it back from being truly great, for me, at least.
