Law and morality: not a coincidence

Rating: 8/10 (15 September 2019)

While a lot of action/war/thriller movies are produced in stereotypical and commercial ways, "Sicario" manages to mix action entertainment with a real psychological detecting. The difference between two kind of police agent groups, that have to work together, bring the the relation between them to fight against law or moral sense. The main protagonist is a woman that thinks police as an activity all based on the respect of laws: attending this different group for a mission in a cruel Mexico, she discovers the fact that other policemen acts for justice but often using their ways, destroying strict rules or also mixing job with personal revenge. The evolution of Blunt's character is all played inside this space of not coincidence between law and morality, and the difficult to understand what is really good to do. The movie passes in a series of cigarettes and psychological problems, without a univocal solution.
