Cold Pursuit (2019)

This American version stayed surprisingly close to the Norwegian original, yet I still preferred the Norwegian one more.

Rating: C

Sicario: Day Of The Soldado (2018)

A sequel that doesn’t have much to do with the original except for some key returning characters. It’s not bad for what it is. Pace is steady and violence is pervasive.

Rating: C

Sicario (2015)

The audience is kept in the dark for much of the film, just like our main character. Cinematography and authentic location shoots were high points. However, none of the characters are all that likeable. We are along for the ride on an intense operation, but I never felt fully invested. Not so much a movie as a very well staged reenactment of a covert op.
