The Story Behind 'Sicario'

Driving through Cuidad Juarez, one of the border towns of Mexico and historic murder capitol of the world, a white SUV is seemingly tailed by a local vehicle, creating an air of unease. Inside the SUV, undercover Federales packing automatic rifles scan the side roads and shady alleyways, alert for any possible threats.
This is not a scene from the new Lionsgate feature Sicario, but instead a description of a research trip done in January by the film's director Denis Villeneuve and producer Basil Iwanyk. In the end the drive would help inform one of the film's most suspenseful scenes, where an American military squad caravans through Juarez to transport a captured cartel leader across the U.S. border into Texas. There are moments throughout the 121-minute drama about a female FBI agent, played by Emily Blunt, who is recruited by a cloak-and-dagger government team with a primary mission to make the drug cartels "nervous." The events that ensue are presented with gritty realism that feels inspired by headlines, if not pulled directly from them. The title even comes from the word widely used by Mexican cartels to describe their hired assassins.

User Reviews: Well...If you're the type of person that zones out during nowadays action scenes and is always hoping for strong dialogue, unexpected twists and some dark humor that is.

But still, this movie will give you powder-keg confrontations that will even grasp anyone's attention. And yes the movie absolutely delivers on the sheer moment-to-moment pleasures fans have come to expect, combined with dynamite dialogue . Armed with vicious humor and an intense story, Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight is as brutal in its insights into race relations and human nature as it is in its depiction of violence in the old West
