Review: Sicario Day of the Soldado

Sicario: Day of the Soldado, is a sequel that should never have happened. It's here though, so without further hesitation. Overall Soldado is a bloodsoaked look at the war on the border. It hold no punches and creates a thrilling battle between two evils-  the American military and the Mexican cartels both get their share of shade. This sequel takes the same atmosphere of it's predecessor and replaces the depth of plot with less-than-par action sequences. The one featured in the commercial is laughably bad and lands like a punch-line mid film. There's also a handful of terrible one-liners. Josh Brolin has been a busy artist and this one may not have been at the top of his list.
