Reviews have been largely great for the film, Wright’s film sold just $15 million in tickets over its with a lot of critics suggesting that Shannon turned first three days.

That causes trouble, but she adjusts. You can see her mind working behind her penetrating blue eyes. She’s a heroine you can trust. What comes is a dizzying series of gruesome encounters on both sides of the border. The team she has joined works with Mexican authorities. Daniel Kaluuya plays her partner. They exchange eye rolls at the explanations they are given about the work they are doing and keep an eye out for each other. The team leader, played with hippie brio by Josh Brolin, rarely explains himself. All information is doled out on a “need to know” basis. Barely more communicative, but more helpful and human is Benecio del Toro. He’s Columbian and has been a prosecu- tor in Mexico, but exactly what his role is, like so much of the proceedings, is not fully explained. His proficiency with weapons is obvious, but how he comes to have so much skill is unclear. Alejandro is the only handle he is given. Alejandro at least offers some kindly advice to Kate. “Nothing will make sense to your American ears. By the end, you will understand.” Del Toro, with dark circles under his droopy eyes, has the physical and emotional qualities of someone heavily bur- dened with what he has seen and known. “You remind me very much of someone I cared about very much.” I’m not spoiling too much by saying that Alejandro’s wife and daughter were killed by the cartel, and he is out for revenge. But Sicario is far from a typical revenge flick or drug lord bullet fest. In this world, there are no easy answers and no sense that justice, as we hope to ad- minister in our court system, exists. Vio- lence and corruption have soaked into the warring sides as thoroughly as the drugs at the heart of the issue take over the lives of addicts. [email protected] SCREENTIME From Page 14 period piece script for Hanks, and Spiels is directing? Sounds very promising to me. Sure, it’ll probably have some cheesy mo- ments, but I think the trailer is very prom- ising. That said, I don’t really think it has the momentum to sell big, as Spielberg and Hanks films almost always do. It’ll be inter- esting to see what happens this weekend, as The Martian is still hot and there are three other movies coming out this weekend to split the American pie with. Next up is a movie I’m very excited about: Guillermo del Toro’s Crimson Peak, starring Charlie Hunnam, Mia Wasikowska, Jessica Chastain and Tom Hiddleston. Looks like a new classic to me. Next up is Goose- bumps, a soft horror-comedy hybrid made for young teens and Nickelodeon nostalgics alike. Looks cute enough. And finally we have this year’s football film, Woodlawn, starring Caleb Sastille, Sean Astin and Jon Voight. It’s about insecurity, racial tensions, faith and all the other things that Hallmark- ish films like Woodlawn thrive on. Looks not good. Not exactly Friday Night Lights, the best football film I’ve ever seen. [email protected].
