In the dangerous state of Mexico, the word “Sicario” stands for hitman or hired killer.
At the border stretching between the United States and Mexico itself, idealistic FBI agent Kate Macy (Emily Blunt) is enlisted by an elite government task force official to aid in the escalating war against drugs by tracking down an anonymous drug lord. Led by an enigmatic consultant with a questionable past, the team sets out on a clandestine journey forcing her to question everything that she believes in order to survive.
Sicario is an expertly crafted, beautifully shot and superbly acted thriller that delivers high quantities of suspense and action, cemented by an intelligent, morally complex script.
