American Sicario

This could have been a decent film, the lead actor was miscast, he doesn't have much acting experience, and he was a bit wooden. The rest of the cast was okay, the Mexican cartel leaders are probably the best performances, but they couldn't save the film. The directing was poor, they overused the drone landscape footage, and they were just really out of their league. It felt like a really low budget production, and was not particularly entertaining.

I don't know who gave the money for this to be shot. This is the lamest most boring movie I ever saw. The acting from the main character down to Danny Trejo is so poor, and the directing is non existent. I think that this is ac lear example of money laundering or some other scheme.

There is no 0 so I had to give it 1, totally undeserved.

Don't waste your time buddies. Go for a walk or anything else instead.

That's the worst acting I have ever seen. Waste of money making this movie unless the actors paid the director.

"American Sicario" is an action movie based on a true story. For all the fans of the "Sicario" movies with Benicio Del Toro, do not have your hopes high. This movie does not belong in the same category. Yes, you have plenty of action, swearing, and graphic scenes in this movie. Although it is based on a true story, there is no plot nor twist that you do not see coming from a mile away. The acting of Philippe A. Haddad (Erik Vasquez) is not bad. But the whole cast sucks. The longer down in the movie, the worse it gets. No kidding. And I am not even speaking about the plot holes. Even if you are a Danny Trejo fan, you will be disappointed. It is like he is doing this movie against his will. You are better of watching the trailer and skip the movie. Waste of time. Unless you are really bored, like I was....

If a group of college students make a film like this as a graduation work, I guess they should be able to graduate... The lighting may contain some ideas, other aspects are mediocre or worse, nothing more.
