Sicario

I got this recommended to me from someone who knows absolute ball! And it definitely swished! My gosh, everything, from the explosive start to the gripping ending, this film had me hooked. Normally, the director Denis Villeneuve tends to grab my attention and lose it a lot before the ending of the films, but this time it kept me the whole way through. In summary, the pacing is incredible. Holy crap, the shots of not only the world but also the overall feel, lighting and cinematography are so beautiful. Throughout the whole film, it felt stunning to watch. The action sequences are done perfectly, too. The characters all had impressive depth and a connection towards the audience. The whole film gave me No Country for Old Men vibes, but if I'm being honest, I think this was better! I can't wait to explore more films by this man, starting with Dune! Truly recommend this underrated masterpiece!
