@@maralinekozial9131 I can tell this show is with my dads old agency I know because my dad was an Agent for that Agency and that’s D.E.A and my dad was an Agent for the D.E.A (Drug Enforcement Administration) for 28 years and he’s arrested bad guys before and he has worked in Los Angeles San Francisco Hawaii and Miami Florida and he’s lost Agents before from shootings in Los Angeles and the agents that worked for him in Los Angeles they all got shot in the head and center mass and I know because I’m a son of a former DEA agent and he’s even arrested a Mexican person that got in his face and he’s arrested Yakuza Hawaiian gangs and some Mexican bad guys like the cartels I think and my uncle was also D. E.A (Drug Enforcement Administration) retired in 1996 and my dad has been in lots of shootings before and my dad has the gun that they used before in this show the P229 and the M4 with Eotech Sight and I would do the same thing put bad guys away and I would love to arrest the bad guys even if it’s cartels and when my dads old agency arrested Barry Seal my dad was at Quantico Virginia at the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) academy and I got the DEA badge my father gave me when I graduated 5th grade and I got the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) vest and a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) shirt that my dad gave me and he’s slammed bad guys on cars and on walls for Resisting arrest and my dad saved kids from Meth houses and has put them in foster homes and my dad has said to a mother and father if you don’t cooperate I’m going to send your kid to a foster home 🏠 and so my dad has dealt with bad guys before and he’s even worked in Madrid Spain 🇪🇸 and he even arrested Bad guys in Columbia too
I know a number of fans of the first don't like this movie and think it's more of a action flick and not a "true" Sicario film but I personally love this film as much as the first. I think it's a perfectly worthy sequel and shows a broader scope of how cartels fit into the crime world. Plus I love that Benicio got more screen time and we got to see a bit more of his character's emotions and motivations aside from revenge. And the fact he manages to seem like a terminator solidifies his reputation that we only heard brief mentions of in the first even more and makes me kinda wish we got a prequel showing Benicio's descent into the hardened killer we know. All in all, loved this film and hope they can make another showing what happens with his character next and possibly with the kid that shot him.
I think this one blows the first one away , that final seen when Alejandro comes back from the dead & he closes the door on the boy & says let's talk about your future , still gives me goosebumps, the ending of the first film was just a little bit more shocking when first watching but the cliffhanger ending in the second one was perfecto
While I thought this one was great, it was just slightly under the first one for me. Do you think Taylor had to write a 2nd one because he was still under contract?
The original was perfect the sequel felt more like a straight forward action movie, nothing wrong with it for me but the original was incredible with it's mixture of horror, thriller and action without giving out too many details
@@tedthecommenter5364 Denis Villeneuve's style can't be matched, dude's in his own league. Just the change Denis did to the ending made Sheridan's script way better. Villeneuve is the master of showing not telling.
Something that I always loved in both the first and second films is that Alejandro always uses a UMP or other kind of non-US weapon, just a nice detail showing that he deliberately tries to hide his affiliation and that he's not a serviceman
If you have seen Narcos. The man playing the deaf farmer in this movie played an asswipe lawyer for Pablo Escobar called Fernando Duque in Narcos. If you compare the two character he played, his range is insane.
The best scene is Matt looking in disbelief and then growing in hate and rage as he thinks his friend just got murdered by those lowlifes... and then unleashing his rage and avenging his friend
This film suffers from inevitably being compared to the amazing first one. I do applaud the filmmakers for taking on the daunting task of making a sequel to that Denis Villeneuve & Taylor Sheridan masterpiece.
A sequel always suffers from not having the originality of concept/world. However I always admire any sequel that is a good solid movie which this film is. I'd love to hear peoples theories on what his plans for the killer kid are at the end. I hope they make another sequel or the origin story prequel.
Lets gooo🔥 this movie's amazing and badass. Loved it just as much as the first if not more even with the direction and ending they went with because when I saw it in theaters the tension was so high throughout all the way to the end and when that ending came up leaving it that open I instantly felt so hyped for more like you did and for the third part they are currently filming right now I'm pretty sure.
I’ve been waiting patiently for this day to come, and I’m very glad I can finally see your reaction to this movie :) I’ve always loved the sicario movies, and I can’t wait for the 3rd to come out.
I love this one just as much. I love the first one. I love how James brolin's character basically executes all those guys in the back of the truck because he thought Alejandro is dead. So I am hoping that they will come back with a third because I would love to see you what he would do to that lady that wanted him dead
When he rapid fires the pistol near the beginning into that one guy that's on purpose. It is supposed to look like a separate cartel decided to hit them from the videos and pictures that I've seen trust me that's exactly what they do. They give sicarios and kids guns with extended mags and they tell them not to come back unless it's empty. It was supposed to look sloppy quick and unprofessional
exactly. people laughed at it when this movie came out because they thought he was just trying to shoot it fast lol when it was supposed to mimic the sloppiness of someone with limited firearms experience. this is probably the 1st comment ive ever seen that mentions this on reactions.
The director says this is a sort of elseworld tale. It doesn't acknowledge the events of the first. It's more of just taking the same 2 characters and putting them into another world or situation.
I absolutely loved this as a sequel. I felt that the ending was solely to levae it open for a 3rd, and if that is the case, I am more than happy to watch that! But, if it wasn't with the intention of a 3rd being made, then all of a suddent my opinion of the ending flips and I don't think it ended all that well. Therefore, I can't actually confirm my opinion until a few years have passed without the 3rd or one is made haha
One thing I wish they would have done marketing wise for this movie was keep the original title. Some might not remember this but an entire year before this movie’s release a trailer for it came out and it was only called “Soldado” back then. Maybe they were worried that the public wouldn’t know it was a sequel to Sicario, so they changed it? I don’t know about ya’ll, but “Soldado” sounds was more badass and enticing compared to - SICARIO2:DAYOFTHESOLDADO 😑… way too fuckin wordy for a sequal to such a quietly awesome movie.
It's actually kinda weirder because internationally it was released as sicario 2: day of the soldado but frequently gets shortened to just sicario 2: soldado they really can't decide on the name lol
The terrorist angle through me off at first but once it got to the fake kidnapping and failure of the operation it got super interesting! It should also be mentioned this director was handpicked by Villenneuve since he wanted to work on Blade Runner 2049 at the time
James you should watch movie with Jamie Lanister and DR Disrespect by same director of Sicario 1. You will love it. Whole story will crush you like Sicatio 1 did!
For me the point of both films is to show the never ending reality of reality. It doesn’t matter what any government does the war against the underworld is a lost cause. Even more so when people inside the government institutions are willing to be uncivilized like the cartels and the terrorists. The first Sicario was about the futility of idealism. The second is about loyalty or a lack of it. Love both films.
That yellow green tint is just smog and dust. Every time i go to Mexico everything is muted. It doesn't feel like home. Matamoros is where i go mostly and i love the food, the markets, the people but the buildings the poor state of buildings forgotten mixed with the very usual pickup truck filled with soldados makes you feel odd.
The thing about this movie? It starts with the Yemen torture subject accused of human trafficking to USA. By a boat. By the boat that guy in the cell uses. People go, "that don't make no sense. With a boat from Arabian peninsula, circling around AFRICAN continent, AND trough ATLANTIC ocean? What are these people talking about? It is bananas stupid premise.
Just a thought about how he pulled the trigger. I thinknit was on purpose so it would look sloppy and unprofessional to make it look like a cartel member did it as to a clean kill like trained killer.
I can tell this show is with my dads old agency I know because my dad was an Agent for that Agency and that’s D.E.A and my dad was an Agent for the D.E.A (Drug Enforcement Administration) for 28 years and he’s arrested bad guys before and he has worked in Los Angeles San Francisco Hawaii and Miami Florida and he’s lost Agents before from shootings in Los Angeles and the agents that worked for him in Los Angeles they all got shot in the head and center mass and I know because I’m a son of a former DEA agent and he’s even arrested a Mexican person that got in his face and he’s arrested Yakuza Hawaiian gangs and some Mexican bad guys like the cartels I think and my uncle was also D.

I really like your reactions man, the perspective of a filmmaker is great By the way have you already watched Nope in theatres because I'd love to see a reaction of it Much love!
The premise for the opening (Islamist terrorists slipping in through the southern border) has been something authorities have been worried about for a long time. To my knowledge it's never happened although I believe one or two plots have been foiled in the early stages. Given how porous the border is though it is a worry. Although not as big of a worry as homegrown extremism, sadly.
I do prefer it to the 1st movie, the great theme of how the war on the Cartels impacts children, with the boys getting enrolled by cartels and forced into this life of violence, among which, one is executed by his peer bc he couldn't execute Benicio Del Toro and the others get shot in cold blood by the CIA and the girl caught in the cross fire ends up traumatized for life; The plot starts as a Republican wet dream: ISIS terrorists sneaking through the south border to do suicide terrorist attacks; but then end up being a fantasy which lead the protagonists to commit useless atrocities The whole movie has these tense but almost anticlimatic action scenes where people get shot and instantly drop on the floor like potatoes bag, violence isn't glamorized unlike in the 1st one. This reminded me of the "Is there any such thing as an ‘anti-war film’?" debate started by François Truffaut because I felt like this was actually the first movie to not make gunfights thrilling in any way... until I went to the UA-cam comment sections of some of the scenes where chuds were absolutely turned on by the action scenes.
Sicario means hitman and Soldado means soldier. Sicarios do a lot of hits for cartels and soldiers are just the street guys who handle shit in the mob or cartels
Yeah, the surviving the shot to the head (mouth.. 🙄) kinda took me outta the movie... It was downhill from there... This kid shot you in the mouth, given he regrets, but you STILL wanna help him?!? GTFOH, ain't no way, they lost me there... I get the swap and raising the 2 kids as opposing rivals in the next movie, but still... That's ridiculous, a bit too farfetched to be taken seriously, in my opinion... That's a shame, considering that ominous theme and how heavy the first movie felt.
9:46 I put off watching this for several years because I saw this scene in the trailer. Del Toro's character doing that with his finger is ridiculous. I'd seen it before while playing paintball. Players would do things like that to mimic automatic fire when they only have a semi-auto paintball marker or full autos are against the rules. Toro's character is supposed to be a stone cold killer who runs illegal operations with the CIA. He isn't a teenager trying to bunker someone in a pick up game. Turns out I liked the movie well enough but it's nothing special. My suspicions were well founded. 20 years from now, Sicario will still be a dope movie. Maybe not exactly a classic but something that still gets a hearty recommendation when a friend tells you that they've never seen it. Sicario 2 get that love. I think it will have the same fate as stuff like Predator 2 or Robocop 2. Decent enough but forever in the shadow of their predecessors.
The reason that he does that is because it's supposed to look like another cartel was doing a hit. Trust me from the videos and pictures that I've seen that's exactly what they do. Kids get given pistols with extended mags and told not to come back unless the mag is empty it was supposed to look inaccurate and like it was done fast not by a professional
Solid film. Just not as great as the first, the biggest flaw (obviously) missing the Emily Blunt character and how she was developed in that particular world and Del Toro's character reveal.
I found the sound and score was very Hollywood. It kept me from getting into it as much as Sicario. The filming, much more formulaic as well. It's a shame, these characters are fascinating.😒

I've been gone for a while, but its good to see you still doing ya thing brotha. Love the community of this channel.
3rd movie is already in the works. Sounds like it will be a continuation of the second. Working title Sicario: Capos.
The best scene is Matt looking in disbelief and then growing in hate and rage as he thinks his friend just got murdered by those lowlifes... and then unleashing his rage and avenging his friend
When you don't want to say "What kind of bs is that!", always go with the good old "That's an interesting choice." (;
This film suffers from inevitably being compared to the amazing first one. I do applaud the filmmakers for taking on the daunting task of making a sequel to that Denis Villeneuve & Taylor Sheridan masterpiece.
The middle bulk, with its similarities to the 1st film, is the weakest part of the sequel.
Otherwise, I quite liked it.
I mean, Taylor Sheridan is the writer for this too, so to me it feels like a great continuation. I think it's a great sequel.

Top notch reaction man!
It ended like that because the story is continuing on. I believe this was meant to be a trilogy after the success of the first movie.
This was your secondlevel Robocop movie reaction. 🙏 Very interesting to hear.

Dariusz Wolski is one of the Best DOP

The premise for the opening (Islamist terrorists slipping in through the southern border) has been something authorities have been worried about for a long time. To my knowledge it's never happened although I believe one or two plots have been foiled in the early stages. Given how porous the border is though it is a worry. Although not as big of a worry as homegrown extremism, sadly.
U have to do your honor Brian Cranston a judge.... only 8 episodes the second season either just csme out or soon to be coming
I do prefer it to the 1st movie, the great theme of how the war on the Cartels impacts children, with the boys getting enrolled by cartels and forced into this life of violence, among which, one is executed by his peer bc he couldn't execute Benicio Del Toro and the others get shot in cold blood by the CIA and the girl caught in the cross fire ends up traumatized for life;
The plot starts as a Republican wet dream: ISIS terrorists sneaking through the south border to do suicide terrorist attacks; but then end up being a fantasy which lead the protagonists to commit useless atrocities
The whole movie has these tense but almost anticlimatic action scenes where people get shot and instantly drop on the floor like potatoes bag, violence isn't glamorized unlike in the 1st one.
This reminded me of the "Is there any such thing as an ‘anti-war film’?" debate started by François Truffaut because I felt like this was actually the first movie to not make gunfights thrilling in any way... until I went to the UA-cam comment sections of some of the scenes where chuds were absolutely turned on by the action scenes.
love your comments
It's not open ended. These guys were clearly tortured and died a slow and agonizing death. You have met Alejandro before right? 😂
Sicario means hitman and Soldado means soldier. Sicarios do a lot of hits for cartels and soldiers are just the street guys who handle shit in the mob or cartels
Yeah, the surviving the shot to the head (mouth.. 🙄) kinda took me outta the movie... It was downhill from there... This kid shot you in the mouth, given he regrets, but you STILL wanna help him?!? GTFOH, ain't no way, they lost me there... I get the swap and raising the 2 kids as opposing rivals in the next movie, but still... That's ridiculous, a bit too farfetched to be taken seriously, in my opinion... That's a shame, considering that ominous theme and how heavy the first movie felt.
soldado = soldier
well, why did I think this was a prequel from some hints in the movie, and, I thought he was recruiting that kid in the end? So, not open ended for me
Please watch incendies from Villeneuve, you won’t regret it!
Adios
9:46 I put off watching this for several years because I saw this scene in the trailer. Del Toro's character doing that with his finger is ridiculous. I'd seen it before while playing paintball. Players would do things like that to mimic automatic fire when they only have a semi-auto paintball marker or full autos are against the rules. Toro's character is supposed to be a stone cold killer who runs illegal operations with the CIA. He isn't a teenager trying to bunker someone in a pick up game.
Turns out I liked the movie well enough but it's nothing special. My suspicions were well founded. 20 years from now, Sicario will still be a dope movie. Maybe not exactly a classic but something that still gets a hearty recommendation when a friend tells you that they've never seen it. Sicario 2 get that love. I think it will have the same fate as stuff like Predator 2 or Robocop 2. Decent enough but forever in the shadow of their predecessors.
The reason that he does that is because it's supposed to look like another cartel was doing a hit. Trust me from the videos and pictures that I've seen that's exactly what they do. Kids get given pistols with extended mags and told not to come back unless the mag is empty it was supposed to look inaccurate and like it was done fast not by a professional
@@viperpoof *get given* is redundant.
