“Sicario: Day of the Soldado” can be summed up in two names: Josh Brolin and the amazing Benicio Del Toro! They ARE the sequel to one of the most amazing, in my opinion, films of the past decade, “Sicario.” I will say that it does not quite live up to the original but it still has plenty of action, intelligent storytelling and a great ending. The story is one you have to pay close attention to and the other actors in the film are all very good as well. So you have a solid cast.
I did not know until just recently that this film has a different director from the original film and that could explain why the same elements that made “Sicario” such a great film are just not there. But that is not to say that this sequel is not a worthy one. It is good and I don’t think many people will be disappointed. The thing is just go in to enjoy the ride and watch great performances by two of today’s excellent actors and you will be glad you did.
