Sicario 2
Action packed, brutal, violent drama.
A tense, gritty sequel to the brilliant first film with a strong haunting 'jaws like' soundtrack.
The first film focuses on drugs, this instalment concerns how the Mexican cartels are trafficking people across the U.S. border. The U.S. Government decide to stage the kidnapping of the daughter of a Mexican Cartel kingpin in order to spark a war between the major cartels.
The first ¾ is a well-crafted film, the remaining is ludicrous. It seems to me that a Hollywood executive probably got involved and insisted on how it should end and ultimately the abrupt end sets up for a third film.
Sequels hardly ever measure up to the original and so this installment also falls a little short, though not as strong as the first, this is still a very good film.
8/10
