Customer Ratings & Reviews

This movie is violent and has lots of disturbing material, so children should not watch. That said, the acting is super good. Also the quality of the 4K image and sound is sensational.

I like the sequel just as much as the original. Others do not think it is that good. I thought the first one had some foggy parts, like they skip why they were doing something. But over all both good films.

Great movie regarding DescriptionFBI agent Matt Graver calls on mysterious operative Alejandro Gillick when Mexican drug cartels start to smuggle terrorists across the U.S. border.

This is the type of movie that is a must buy for me. After hearing that there would be a sequel to Sicario, I was very excited and not disappointed. Looking forward to the third film!!

Blacks are solid and inky, resolution exhibits light film grain but excellent resolution. HDR allows for great clarity, and amazing shadow detail. Colors are somewhat muted, but I suspect by director's choice.

The second installment to Sicario, another great movie for me. The story was good and the visuals were good too. Would recommend this film to anyone that enjoyed the first one.

The first Sicario was a sleeper hit for me. I walked into the theater with minimal knowledge of the film, not having even seen a trailer. My wife and I had decided to go see a movie, but had nothing we were really looking forward to at the time. We looked at what was playing, read a spoiler free bare-bones synopsis of Sicario, and opted to go see it on a whim. The cast was ridiculous so we figured it would be good. I ended up being beyond blown away by it. It is easily one of my favorite films now. With that said, Day of the Saldado is not quite as good as the first Sicario. Denis Villeneuve not returning as the director feels like it is 90% of the reason for this. The pacing is not quite as well handled. Instead of artfully and steadily building into a fantastically violent crescendo, it rises and falls at times. Consequently, the experience is a little less "edge of your seat" than the first. Also, without something to fill the void of the unusual perspective switch from the first, Day of the Saldado feels a little less unique and more like a straight forward dramatic action film. The final conflict/resolution, while somewhat subversive, is not ultimately as satisfying as it was in the first either. With all of that said, it is still and excellent film. While Villeneuve did not return to direct, the original writer of the first film did. Consequently, the story and premises themselves are actually very clever and original. As to be expected, Brolin and Del Toro both turn in tight performances. As does basically the entire cast. Ultimately, while it is not quite as well done as the first, it is still an excellent film. Well worth spending the $$$ to see in my opinion.

A good fact to know when going into this “sequel” is that writer Taylor Sheridan originally wrote this film as not a sequel, but a spin-off film of Sicario called Soldado, focusing on Benecio Del Toro’s character and Josh Brolin’s character. But with the success of Sicario it was easy for producer’s to change the title and try to bank in on the Sicario title. That said, this film is one entirely of its own, and shouldn’t be directly compared to the first Sicario film, though it’s still a fine follow up film. Viewed as it’s own piece, this movie really pops off at every opportune moment. The pacing is much quicker, and the atmosphere a lot darker. Tension doesn’t necessarily take the back burner, it’s just handled differently by this director, resulting in something much meaner and violent, rather than brooding and ready explode under its own pressure. In many ways I enjoyed this film a little more, but again it’s hard to compare. Save for 2 major characters, this feels like a different a film - not a sequel, but a proper companion piece, a follow-up set in a different storyline. This feels like a film that should’ve been called Soldado, and marketed as such. Great film for fans of action/thriller flicks, this one definitely leans into darker and more violent terroritories. For fans of Sicario, expect a more expansive story that covers more that just the America/Mexico territories, involving a much more international aspect to the plot, not as claustrophobic and dense in its tension, but still a moody, atmospheric, and expansive, look into the realities of the hands that control the American fate beyond political policies, as well as it expands on 2 of Sicario’s more enigmatic characters.

The movie wasn't as good as the first one. But the picture quality and sound quality was a clear upgrade. If you have a good home theater, pop some popcorn and enjoy the show.

This movie is so awesome, if you haven’t watch the first part, You must do it. Otherwise You wouldn’t understand this part at all. It’s good for ones but bad for others.

I had high expectations for this one! The plot was a bit everywhere and thought it would have more action. Got the movie during Black Friday so not that disappointed I purchased since on sale...

Love Benico and Josh. Only thing it missed was the soundtrack composer from the first movie, who sadly died and could not do this movie. I loved the twists in the movie and hoping for one move follow up movie.

Benicio Del Toro makes this movie a must watch. In this war there are no allies just enemies and survival. Sicario is the best cartel movie franchise in a long time.

There has been a lot of divided opinions for Sicario 2 among Sicario fans and after seeing the film, I get it. First and foremost I really enjoyed the movie and it is a good compliment to Sicario. It is essentially 2 movie narratives in one as part way through there is a sizable tonal shift that some may not like. There are a lot of story lines and it might have tried to bite off more than it could chew trying to tie them all together, It does, but just barely. The action, acting, cinematography, soundtrack were all spot on but it did all feel like a big setup to the planned/hopeful Sicario 3 and that is where the movies main weakness lies. The first film had a solid beginning, middle and end but feels as if it was never meant to have a sequel (it was but I digress) so it stands on its own. This film hurtles toward a 3rd instalment unashamedly and as such feels unfinished, which makes the movie on the whole feel a little anticlimactic. There is a 3rd film in the works (and has been for a few yrs) and as long as that is done right this one will feel more like a bridge to completion than a cliff to nowhere. At this point it's cheap to buy or rent so I would watch it if you liked the first one, it's well done if nothing else and to me the Sicario universe is always a fun ride.

I am really bad at writing reviews because. My sentence structure and punctuation sucks. But anyways, The first Sicario was really good and this one did not disappoint.

The sequel to Sicario extends the story of the two main characters from the first movie but doesn't quite live up to the first movie. Still the story is good and the audio and video quality are great. (4k)

I enjoy Action Movies. This one has action and suspense. It touches on the Black Ops that are going on behind the scenes in the War on Drugs and Human Trafficking.

I had to rebuy this movie because of the defective bluray, which BB returned my money because the bluray was sold out. Pretty good movie. can’t wait for the third movie !!

Very good movie excellent choice good actors great

Great movie. Awesome sequel. Highly recommend. Action packed.
