As croft says it's grim, but there is a bit of an action film element with lots of people getting shot etc. so it can work both ways.
It was interesting as it looks at two political sides, a more liberal one and a more right wing one to over simplify. You can sympathise with either 'side' and I think that's why I liked the film - it didn't try to moralise about what's going on a massive amount, but left you to consider what was right or wrong and is certain action justified. That might have been a marketing device to get more people to 'enjoy' it.

The way you describe it makes it sound like one of those Fox news things where they get "experts" from either side and then shout over them :p
It could be a shady mass-appeal tactic but I'm intrigued enough to go see it now.

Re Sicario, the marketing reminded me of Elite Squad. Which admitidly is a bit more actiony in parts but a lot more political. In any event, not the naff GI Joe spin-off the name and posters led you to belive.

Is it any good? The poster makes it look like an action film aimed at teenage boys...
