Who wants to go on vacation to Juarez this winter? Holy shit.

This is a good movie, maybe even great.

Had seen this the first week it came out. I thought it was good, but was expecting more. I thought the show The Bridge was kind of similar and better.

Shit was dark, man. I was not quite prepared for that. Overall I thought it was entertaining, but I didn't love it.

I saw this on Saturday. Decent enough movie. What I didn't understand is why they made the FBI agent such a patsy. She couldn't even beat a local cop in hand to hand combat? She was borderline pathetic.

I liked the story overall, and the Colombian hit man was bad ass.

If you want to fight crime, hire cops.
If you want to fight a war, hire warriors.

The point of her being way in over her head was that she was good if not great at law enforcement, but the war on drugs is just that, a war.

That's why she was selected.

Is this a movie about a daffy update broad who hides in her home ostensibly because some nebulous boogeymen know what door she enters the workplace through?

Yes very disappointing. I thought I was getting Clarice from Silence of the Lambs and instead I got a damsel in distress.
