In the lawless border area stretching between the U.S. and Mexico, an idealistic FBI agent [Emily Blunt] is enlisted by an elite government task force official [Josh Brolin] to aid in the escalating war against drugs. Led by an enigmatic consultant with a questionable past [Benicio Del Toro], the team sets out on a clandestine journey forcing Kate to question everything that she believes in order to survive.This is getting super hyped reviews right now:
Led by outstanding work from Emily Blunt and Benicio del Toro, Sicario is a taut, tightly wound thriller with much more on its mind than attention-getting set pieces.http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/sicario_2015/

Blunt had some interesting things to say about the funding of that film, backers balking at the main character being a woman.
Got tickets for Friday night. Looking forward to it. Blunt is great, but Benicio is the real reason for the hype. Seems like the perfect kind of picture for him.
