Very engaging. Realistic even in its action and suspense. What I did not find realistic is that an FBI agent can have idealism. Nowadays all US military, police, intelligence and "security" agencies are so indoctrinated that I didn't swallow Ms. Blunts character that well. However, as a work of fiction I was quite satisfied overall. The acting was very good as well as character development.

To those who are giving this a 1 or 2 star movie, you truly do not understand the cartels reach and impact they have on not only their own people but the impact they have on the world stage and the millions of lives they destroy each day. This movie shows but a small glimpse into that world. What this movie also gives but a mere peek at is what governments must do to combat them. Legal is not the word for their counter defense tactics. It's fighting fire with fire. Overall great movie.

The best movie I've seen in a long time. A slow burner, which is a good thing if the tension is maintained which in this case it is. Would recommend it to anyone tiring of the super hero factory. Wish there were more like this
