You've seen this movie before.

Rating: 8/10 (16 October 2016)

Every movie is a variation of another one so I'm not expecting total creativity when it comes to movies anymore, but it does puzzle me when a story told a million times suddenly gets so much attention. Ingenue cop who learns things she didn't want to know? Check. Cop you think is on a revenge binge but is just as crooked as the rest of them? Check. There's nothing original or interesting about this film at all. In fact, I spent most of my time on Wikipedia trying to follow the story it was so confusing. Only reason I'm rating so high is the great cast (and even benicio del toro needs to get a new job besides drug trafficking movies) as the child of a Mexican mother, this film to me is just way of life where my mom is from (Sinaloa) nothing to see here, folks. Move along.
