Sicario (2015) ☾ MOVIE REACTION - FIRST TIME WATCHING! 

Yayy! Thanks to editor we got a video out this week! I've been drowning in school work, so I truly appreciate having a helping hand while studying 🥳❤️ Reminder that I have my second channel: youtube.com/@kamillaa here I post gaming, trailer reactions and so on! Currently working on Spider-Man 2 and The Last of Us Part 2. After that we dive into Batman Arkham City, God of War Ragnarok and Red Dead Redemption 2!

The border crossing scene and the build up tension culminating in the shootout is just flawless filmmaking

When you wear flip flops to a high level meeting, you know you are a badass 😂

the ending is so well done. like the whole plot of the movie was to supposedly take down this big drug lord to make a real difference but in reality its just next man up in the cartel and the cycle of violence continues.

I grew up in El Paso. At least once a month we would go to Juarez to by groceries and get hair cuts and there were truly great places to eat over there. I wouldn't set foot there any more. This is a VERY difficult film to watch. I really liked your reaction. As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.

Everything Denis Villeneuve has directed is amazing. I like the moral ambiguity in this film, and I love the photo!

Thermals has 2 modes: white hot and black hot. The names explain themselves. Anything with heat will glow white or black and colder items will glow the opposite. A lot better than night vision in terms of seeing things in the dead of night. Super cool to see. Night vision has also evolved to white phosphorus in place of green phosphorus so instead of a green tint, it’s more of a white tint. Good movie. Good visuals. Good tension. Glad you reacted. 🎉

I love Benicio del Torro. I have not been disappointed from anything I've seen with him. The Usual Suspects, The Way of the Gun, Snatch, all great movies.

Great reaction! Taylor Sheridan also wrote a sequel Sicario: Day of the soldado (2018). Another great movie from Taylor Sheridan is Wind River (2017) with Jeremy Renner. Jon Bernthal even has a small role as a good guy in this one 😉

Benicio Del Toro won the oscar for best supporting actor for 'Traffic.' Great movie, check it out. That film also deals with the war on drugs.

Benecio Del Toro can be super intimidating. He’s a really good actor. The whole cast though is filled with amazing actors.

A "smurf" is a term originally from the cartoon/comic "The Smurfs" (a race of tiny blue people who mostly look the same as one another). In the drug world a "smurf" is slang for members of a group of people sent into legitimate businesses to commit a crime (such as buying drug-making chemicals, or making a lot of illegal financial transactions) without being noticed or identified as criminals. Because there are so many of them, and they look so unremarkable, and their transactions are small (and otherwise legal, such as buying cold medicine from pharmacies in small amounts), they are often overlooked.

For more Benicio Del Toro that's way out of this vibe (but still as charismatic, if not moreso), check out the film "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" with Johnny Depp. It's based on the book by gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson, and it's so weirdly wonderful.

Yes, Chihuahua is a place (the dog breed is named for the place). It is one of the Mexican States (the largest State of Mexico by land area), in the north, and which borders the U.S. states of New Mexico and Texas (as well as other Mexican States). So, it has a very long border with the U.S., with all that implies, both good and bad.

Who edited this!? Jeeezus!

Smurf is where someone is cashing in smaller dollar ($5, $10, & $20) bills in for $100 bills. Larger bills are easier to conceal and transport. Also refers to money couriers. These couriers can also be referred to as ants or bees.

10:27 Alejandro wasn't a police officer, and he was likely deliberately baiting the guy with the question, so he could kill him. And as he wasn't an American, the special ops guys with him would have had plausible deniability for starting the gunfight ("Hey, we didn't say anything").

"I thought he was peeing on him!".........Adorable! 😂😂😂

Cartels do CRAZY shit!! There’s videos online. Shit that’s inhuman, cutting hearts out, peeling faces off, burning heads, hacking limbs off. This movie is soft in comparison.

To the question if that is a place, yes, Chihuahua is a Mexican state in the north, bordering the US. Its capital is also named Chihuahua (well, Chihuahua City). The internationally probably better-known dog breed got its name from it, too.

I live on the north side of Oklahoma City we have a Mexican gang called the Southside Locos that have been around for decades. One day my sister was driving north on I-44 and there was a burnt body hanging by a rope on the overpass. The police, Fire Dept and ambulance were there . But not one word of it on the news , ever. You never hear about the crimes committed by them on the news . I imagine it's to keep them from being sensationalized.

@14:53 ~ Note to editor, when she says "Why did they translate it like that?" Get in touch and find out what meaning she heard. IE add in some alternate subtitles or something.

I love your channel! Big supporter here I can just hear you alllll day, I love your voice! Lol 🖤

If you haven't seen the MCU movies, Benicio Del Toro plays a small role there, he's in a couple of movies and even has a scene with Josh Brolin (Matt in this movie) but I won't tell you what characters they play in case you haven't seen the MCU. Daniel Kaluuya (Reggie) is also in the MCU in Black Panther and I'm sure you know Bernthal plays The Punisher.

For more of the Mexico-US drug connection, check out the movie Traffic (2000), funnily enough also starring Benicio Del Toro, along with an absolutely PACKED cast. :)

The first Sicario was really good. The second Sicario was pretty frustrating and bad.

Technically speaking, a Sicario is a nickname for a hitman no matter the context... Sure, its most common use is inside latin-american criminal organizations, but the word isn't exclusive of that... Another word to describe them is "asesino a sueldo" (contract killer)

Fun fact: Night Vision Nerd Version Night vision goggles use phosphor, a substance that helps brighten the light in the goggles, and there are two kinds of it; White Phosphor and Green Phosphor. White phosphor is MUCH more expensive but makes the night vision so much more clear and gives the white and grey picture in the movie that’s so pretty. Green phosphor is less expensive and produces the kinda blurry green picture. Most night vision is green phosphor because it’s cheaper. The director is actually pointing that out in the tunnel scene because the Army “Delta” operators (special forces shooters) had white phosphor night vision goggles because the US military is funded so well and the government agents had green phosphor because federal agencies don’t get anywhere close to the same amount of money as the military. I thought that was a neat little inside nod to ppl with first hand experience with night vision.

Benicio del Toro's best role remains Dr. Gonzo in _Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas._ A must-see film!

There's a track in the film's OST called "The Beast" which is this tense droning sound. It gives you the feeling that there is this villain or monster after you. The Beast only ever plays when U.S. Forces are in the scene.

29:58 "This man is such a good actor - I want to see more of his work". Benicio Del Toro. I had to laugh a little. You saw him about 3 weeks ago in THE USUAL SUSPECTS. Yeah, that's just how good he is. Unrecognizable from one role to the next. 'Really good actor.

Night vision goggles work with the available light (the greenish) and thermal goggles with heat (the white).

It's funny to me when the powers that be think they can gain back control by breaking their own laws and then have it blow up in their face over and over. This film shows how the war on drugs is a total failure.

Try to keep in mind that the people that Alejandro is killing are soldiers in a war, who are responsible for what they found in the AZ suburb. That includes Silvio.

Kate keeps trying to work "in the rules" when in order to catch these really bad guys you have to color waayyy outside the lines... he kept trying to lead her the right way but she kept fighting it to the very end. Alejandro's character arc is probably one of the most rewarding and complicated storylines I have ever watched. This was an amazing movie, Sicario II was almost as good.

Check out the movie Traffic. It has the same grit and has amazing actors.

kate had a right to be pissed at Brolin's character. he basically put her in a very dangerous position by what he did. it was a really sketchy operation legally and the fact that it's her name signing off on it means that not only could she lose her career but she could also be put in prison (if, say, the operation came under scrutiny by congress and they needed a sacrificial-lamb). but on top of all of that, now she has a target on her back with the cartels. they know she was involved so she will probably have to live the rest of her life looking behind her back for some hitman to come after her for revenge. Brolin's character was the kind of CIA type who uses people for their own gain, keeps them in the dark and then throws them away when done with them. Alejandro was just an assassin but interestingly, he must have had a soft spot for kate because it would have been in his best interest to kill her at the end and make it look like a suicide (after she signed the paper). leaving her alive was a bit of a loose-end for him

And also at 23:15 the reason it looks weird is because they’re trying to portray night vision when it’s green (NV is generally green or bluish black/white) and thermal imaging which is generally grey/black and white but can also be a rainbow of colors but basically there’s going to be more of a contrast between objects in view with thermal than with NV and also depending on the settings if it’s set to “black hot” then the hottest thing in view will be black or basically the darkest and it’s the opposite for “white hot” mode and then if it’s set to color then just taste the rainbow... Military, cops and civilians (it’s not really restricted here in the US just very expensive so not as many civilians or regular cops have them) will use both NV and thermal but you generally use one or the other, like you have thermals and you have NV so it’s generally one or the other but rarely both combined into one helmet mounted unit so it’s like pick one to use for both eyes or for instance a thermal unit for your left eye and NV unit for the right eye unless you want to drop minimum $10,000 usd (on the low end, way more for high end) for a unit that combines both for both eyes

30:00 ..."This guy is such a good actor; I wanna see more of his work" You already did. He was Fenster in "The usual suspects"...Y'a know, the guy who speaks funny

Benicio Del Toro does a fantastic job as a low rent street thug in the movie The Way of the Gun, an underrated heist/blackest of black comedies. Thanks for reacting to this.

For more Benicio Del Toro, I recommend The Hunted (2003) and The Wolf Man (2010).

So night vision will pick up what little visible light that is in the area and amplify it. That's visible light as well as some parts of the infrared spectrum, but still only light waves. Night vision is usually shown as shades of green. It technically be shown as any color but I believe they use green because it either allows for more shades or the color or because it does the least amount of activation of your rods and cones (eye stuff) so that if you took them off at night you wouldn't be completely night blind. Thermal optics will purely see all of the infrared spectrum through heat. That's why it looks different. The different colors indicated a difference in heat between that object and other objects around it. If you watch in the beginning of the tunnel sequence of the movie you'll see that the soldier's boot prints are visible. That's because there's still some radiant heat that he left on the ground (I think it was supposed to be the blood of the guy he just knifed that he was tracking on the bottom of his boot). It's also why it's so much clearer. Night vision depends on some visible light, or some kind of infrared light that's turned on. Thermal optics don't require any of that. Think of it kind of like the vision the Predator has in those movies. Even in pitch black thermal vision will pick up a person like they're on fire. Thermals are *usually* white and black. Most thermals you can switch back and forth so that hot objects either appear as white or as black. There are some thermals that use multiple colors to show different levels of heat. Those are less common but not totally uncommon. In the military they're starting to use vision that is combined. So they'll be using thermal vision as well as some software driven HUG indicators that outline different shapes. So it basically looks like a video game where every person and vehicle is given an outline. The software can also indicate who or what that outline is. There are some declassified videos of it on RU-vid. It's some pretty trippy shit.

Love the intro & outro of your videos keep it up. By the way Love the reaction Spot ON.

And the Oscar for most exciting traffic jam scene goes to.... Sicario!

miss centane so good to see a movie post from you !

I enjoy the silence, not much music, as it sets the tension. Great cast. Blunt's character frustrated me lol. I also like him in Sicario: Day of the Soldado, Reptile and Escobar: Paradise Lost.

If you want to see another good one with Beneccio, check out Traffic. And of course you already saw him in The Usual Suspects. For something funny, Snatch is a great one.

Chihuahua is the largest state in Mexico😅, That's why the Chihuahua dog has the name, it is originally from there.

Some of my favorite Benicio Del Toro movies 21 grams, Traffic, The Wolfman, and The Hunted.

Some other great movies with Benicio Del Toro are Snatch, Traffic, and objectively one of the most insane movies ever, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas alongside Johnny Depp.

Benicio Del Toro in “The Hunted” with Tommy Lee Jones is pretty good too.

Benicio DelToro is in the second film Sicario: Day of the Soldado which is also very good, different director. I would also recommend the film Traffic ( 2000 ) with DelToro, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones. Great film based on an English TV Series Traffik.

Realy enjoy your reactions. Keep up the great work.

If you like that actor Sean then watch the movie called The Acountant.

the second one is good but this one is loads better id love to see you react to the movie Sabotage all star cast and one of my fav action thriller movies if you like this movie and Narcos you'll love Sabotage

Kate wanted to destroy the cartels while operating in every legal light. The CIA group, in which she unwittingly voluntarily attached herself too, was operating in a gray - illegal - way. That's the whole basis of the movie. The storytelling in this film is pretty dynamite.

Just found your channel, great job. One of best reactions of this movie, 👍🙏🌹

Great reaction to a great movie! You might also enjoy Colombiana (2011). Benicio del Toro: Excellent actor. He was also in the "Guardians of the Galaxy" arm of the Marvel films, Sin City, License to Kill, and (of course) The Usual Suspects. BTW, the reason they laughed during the line-up scene is because Benicio farted, and they just couldn't hold character. Repeat for something like 12 takes. This movie was directed by Denis Villeneuve. After completing Sicario, he directed Arrival, Blade Runner 2049, and the new Dune movies. All are highly recommended (but watch the original Blade Runner movie before 2049).

Amazing film. One of my favorites

If the U.S. Attorney tells you straight up what you're doing is on the level and not to worry about it, Just go along.

Kate isn't being difficult. She's trying to follow the law, which is her job.

Fantastic movie!! LETS GOO! 💪😎💪

If you liked Benicio Del Toro here, you should check out "Traffic", it's in a similar genre as Sicario but it covers a lot more aspects than just one mission, and Del Toro plays a less corrupt person :P

Cool awesome reaction 🎉🍾👍

Next week you be watching Sicario 2, right? ;) And we will continue to follow Matt Graver and Alejandro. I love the Sicario movies. Benicio del Toro in this role are absolutly amazing. Lock forward and hope to see you react to the next Sicario movie.

You need a better editor. They skipped way too many of the most important lines and beats in this movie.

Did you notice “Polícia” on the vest of the truck gunner in Juárez was spelled in Portuguese instead of Spanish (policía)?

This is a good thriller film based on the war on drugs, but a movie that I highly recommend to react to is "Traffic." It's considered by many as the best film on the war on drugs and one of the best in 2000. It also stars Benicio Del Toro, who won the Oscar for best supporting actor.

ah the shure sm-7b.......sounds nice

I was about to hit the like button and then you said Jon Bernthal's character in Walking Dead was awful, wtf he was literally the best character in the whole series.

Good reaction. Only complaint, you left out most of the best lines of the film. Especially at the end, "You're not a wolf, and this is the land of wolves now."

If you want to see more of Benicio Del Toro, you should see 'Traffic' from 2000, another film about the Mexican drug cartels and the Mexico-U.S. drug trade.

If you want to see more of Benitio del toro you should watch Way of the Gun it’s a great movie

Sicario 2 is great too !

​​​​Things We Lost in the Fire (2007) Starring: Halle Berry Benicio del Toro David Duchovny

Great reaction to this brutal masterpiece of a movie

21:06 and he is very nice while movie 😂

More Benicio - Traffic by Steven Sodergurgh four intertwined about Mexico and US drug use and sales with Michael Douglas, Catherine Zeta Jones and Don Cheadle - The Funeral - the darkest movie ever made with Walken & Chriss Penn - The Way of the Gun - bonkers action with Ryan Phillipe - Sin City - Jackie Boy ! - Che

Though effectively unsettling, I never understood the "bodies in the walls" thing. Why would anyone do that?

You should watch Incendies or prisoners from the same director

Saludos desde la República Dominicana excelente video

Now you gotta watch the rest of the movie series, it only gets better in my opinion

Benicio del Torro is one of the great actors of our time. He hasn't done a bad performance ever.

Check out a movie called Traffic.

Awesome reaction of my favorite Emily Blunt movie!!!!😊😊😊😊

You should react to Train to Busan! I think you'd like it

NEVER cut important scenes ! the movie is really low res

Sweetie, this is the actual life style in Mexico and Southern states of the United States. You've got to see part 2 of this movie. Btw, you are absolutely gorgeous with your new hair style and highlights!!

this movies so good

The sequel is also a great movie.

Sicario 2!

Bravo.

This has a sequel.

There is a sequel to this, 3 years later.

Gonna watch the 2nd one?

Have you seen Sacorio two day of the soldier

Watch The Town. Great cast with Ben Affleck, Blake Lively and Jeremy Renner.

The cycle of violence can be ended more quickly than one might think, as was the case with ISIS. But it will take focus and determination to wipe out the culture of narco corruption on both sides of the border (which currently does not exist, thanks in many ways to globalism and the "big guy" and those pulling his strings). Agreed: A great cast.

Can you please please react to the movie "Hard Candy" 🙏🏻🙏🏻?? Starring Patrick Wilson

This is definitely the first person I've seen be anti Kate lol. Interesting take.
