Sicario

AudienceAudience: 6.5

Jairo is a teenager living in a marginal world, in a neighborhood full of drugs and assaults. Tired of poverty and his family hell, he is forced to resort to violence. He thinks his only way out of misery through the world of crime, so he decides to participate in an assault to get money with which to regain their dignity.

My take

A gripping crime thriller that plunges you into the murky depths of drug cartels and moral ambiguity, following an idealistic FBI agent who discovers the line between law and justice isn't as clear as she thought. Arlo would describe this as a masterclass in tension—dark, unforgiving, and deeply unsettling.
