First off, I cannot give a good rating to any work of fiction that includes violence against children. And Sicario includes such a scene. Beyond that, the movie attempts a slow burn toward a big finish and fails all the way around. It isn't the cast's fault. Emily Blunt, Benicio Del Toro and Josh Brolin all do good work, but they had terribly little to work with. The plot just plods slowly along with Emily's character feeling / acting lost and confused, while Del Toro and Brolin keep her in the dark. I regret having spent money on this pile of cinematic garbage.
