2:27 That said, I haven't re-visited that now first film since it was released on Blu-ray and so, while I remember being overcome by the tension of the piece and the fact its ideas were more prominent than its story it would seem my actual memory of the film as opposed to my fondness for the experience surrounding the film is something that shouldn't allow me to hold that film in as high regard as I did going into this sequel.

'Day of the Soldado' would be hard to stomach at any time.

An intense and gritty crime drama, Sicario: Day of the Soldado tackles some very topical and complicated issues. | Rating: 2/5

An irregular sequel that pales in comparison to the excellent first film, especially as it betrays the motivations of the characters (which make little sense here) and becomes too implausible in the end, even if its nihilism still works thanks to the strong performances from the two leads. |

And though Sheridan's script along with Sollima's direction and Dariusz Wolski's cinematography (though it's hard to beat Roger Deakins) all contribute to delivering an entertaining and tension-filled actioner the main issue is the shifting of perspectives as doing so makes these men who were once shrouded in mystery and their moral compasses all the more unclear less so and therefore nowhere near as interesting.



Without a humanizing element like Blunt's character, this whole grim affair is just a race to the bottom in which everyone loses. 1:19
