Go through the basic plot first.
1. The girl is not the daughter of the first drug lord, but another boss. Because the revenge of the first part has been completed.
2. It is normal for the DOD to go to the hospital if there is a disease, but there is no DHS directly to the Ministry of National Defense-this is a flaw (checked before the border management is now owned by the DHS, if you are interested, you can read this bulletin https:// www.dhs.gov/news/2018/07/19/perils-illegal-border-crossing ).
3. The meaning of the seeded player Snakehead is to make up for the puberty of the "killer". This was outstanding when he voluntarily asked for execution.
Let's put it this way, the meaning of the sequel falls on the word "killer", which is actually very reasonable and correct. It was not developed to continue the last policewoman story. Moreover, those who have seen the first part may remember the words "Medellin" said to the policewoman before the end: This is the territory of the wolf. That is, there are no rules other than violence. Therefore, the second part is about violence.
Drugs or smuggling are just the soil that causes violence. As mentioned in the TV news speech of the Secretary of Defense in the film-the United States has real terrorist violence... You see, the helicopter flying directly across the border does not require any formalities or reporting (of course because of the use of contractors). The entire action plan in the film is only "coordinated" by the CIA, using the equipment of the security contractor and a part of the special forces. In other words, the real force has not been used yet. In connection with the actual situation, what would happen to this country if the United States sent one-third of its troops in the Second Iraq War to Mexico? From this point of view, the film is a success-a small show of American "muscles" is enough for a Mexican to drink a pot.
Secondly, the biggest difference between the sequel and the first is: the first US attack is proactive, the delta, drones, etc. are clean and tidy, without a trace of muddy water. But the sequel is not the case, it is only telling a story of punishment, misjudgment, abandonment and survival. The role played by Del Toro is not a serious CIA employee, let alone a military person. It is just a mixture of mercenaries and spies on the periphery. The Americans made it clear that they are not interested in their life or death. And as a colleague who has worked for many years, he can only be evil. Del Toro was only lucky to survive-or the story needs.
So now that the plot is mentioned, let me say a few more words. The kind of people who think that the plot of the sequel is chaotic, need to refresh their brains or drink some water to clear up: the cool image of "killer" is always the center of the film. The first part uses the policewoman to reflect the coldness of the "killer world" from the side, while the sequel directly expresses the continuity of the "killer world". Are those gangsters pitiful? Hateful? Would they look cooler if they used American equipment (or submarines of the Colombian drug cartel)? But this film is not here to play cool pretense. It's just telling the stories of those struggling on the US border.
In the sequel, the snakehead boy replaced the policewoman in the previous one. But the difference is that the boy is never sad. This role was very successful. From reticence to final self-consciousness-in fact, jumping off a car after the murder is not only to increase the subsequent dramatic conflict-it is a complete description of the boy's psychological process from half-pushing to maturity. Why did he participate in smuggling, why did he kill people, and why did he get tattoos all over his body in the end? Another character in the play can be explained from the opposite side. Yes, it is a family of dumb people.
This is the status quo of the bottom people in Mexico. Poor peasants who either join the gang or farm the land. What else can I do ( why are Mexican drug dealers so arrogant? ) Therefore, I think the best thing about this film is that through the superficial fighting and killing, it is more or less related to reality. Recall the Mexican people who smuggled to the United States in the movie
