Leave your thoughts about El Sicario, Room 164.
| Slant MagazineJesse CataldoA lot of evil is laid on the table in El Sicario, and the film makes a big, if exquisitely subtle show, of theorizing that there's no way to explain how it got there. |
| ReelTalk Movie ReviewsDonald J. LevitThis one-man dramatization is not a film, but surely an indictment. Rosi's 'grey zone where good and evil meet' is wide of the mark; this is pure evil. |
| Filmcritic.comChris Cabingives off the sense that you're watching a 60 Minutes interview with Death himself |
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisFinally less compelling for its random details of multiple brutalities than for its chilling portrait of a country irretrievably rotting from within. |
| Film Comment MagazineNicolas RapoldGianfranco Rosi's extraordinary one-man documentary stares long and hard at the practiced but no less terrifying monologues of a Mexican hit man. |
| User ReviewFabien RI have seen it, in English, legitimately. Incredibly dark, important film. If not to the systemic corruption and sanctioned drug trafficking which is crucially relevant to current affairs in Mexico, then it is an important piece into the psychology of someone who explains his "work" in a tone you expect a teacher would explain their administrative responsibilities. His description of early enticement into the trade, through training, through to various responsibilities and participation in conducting brutality of "enormous suffering" at the will of "el patron", is chilling and deeply disturbing. This interview is not only the confession of a mass murderer, it is a testament to how organized and how rooted the drug industry is in the Mexican economy and politics. An echo of a tragic history which ripples across south America over the decades. -nimbletreefrog |
| User ReviewArmando PThis is pretty disturbing, specially for us mexicans living this uncontrolable hell. |
