I usually follow 7TMMindia's review. It's a new page but really love the way they analyze movies in simple words.
SICARIO : Day of The Soldado Review by 7TMM
Raw, Intense Yet Hollow! This Thrill-ride Entirely Belongs to Might of Del Toro!!
Overall Rating - 7.1/10
Highpoints
1. Performances
90% of the movie revolves around 3 characters (Benicio Del Toro, Josh Brolin, Isabela Moner) & all of them have given complete justice to their characters. Especially Del Toro who has more meat, shades & heroics to his role in this sequel.
2. Technical Departments (Cinematography, Background Score & Action Sequences)
3. Eventful First Half
Weakpoint
1. Barren Second Half
2. Rushed & Less impacting Climax
Verdict
Villeneuve’s Sicario had Emily Blunt who was a guiding factor between movie’s Grey characters. However, Sicario 2 is a world of Grey characters where makers have trusted viewers to make their choice between good & bad. Throughout its run-time movie remains constant to this thought but towards the end it leaves you with a hollow feeling as you expect something rewarding after all those thrills, events & brilliant performances. That being said, Sicario 2 is a stylish thriller which has good Action sequences & edge of the seat moments. It’s an average watch for Action-Thriller lovers others can still enjoy this for its thrills!!
