Main actress role totally disposable

Rating: 6/10 (23 September 2016)

This movie is a combination of several movies about the Mexico - USA drug traffic drama. It's a mix that works, however it falls short in several places and the plot leaves too many holes in the plot. You should just watch it and avoid to make too many questions. But the most surprising aspectof this movie is the way the director wasted the role of the main female character played by Emily Blunt. I still don't understand why she accepted this role after reading the script. Her role in the movie is just a first row spectator. With or without her the movie plot had developed exactly the same way and her character doesn't even get a full explanation why she was invited to join the team in the first place. She is just dead weight. Probably they needed her name to help increase the movie revenue, probably she was bored or lose a bet. If you want a good read about the drug traffic look for Don Winslow's books, if you're lazy just watch this movie and end with a lot or questions.
