If sharp criticism disappears entirely, mild criticism will become harsh. If mild criticism is not allowed, silence will be considered ulterior motives. If silence is also no longer allowed, it will be a crime to praise insufficiently. If only one voice is allowed to exist, then the only voice that exists is a lie. ---Plato
You cannot survive here. This is not a wolf, and this is already the territory of the wolf pack. You can't survive here. This is not a wolf, and this is already the territory of the wolves.

If sharp criticism disappears entirely,

Mild criticism will become harsh.

If mild criticism is not allowed,

Silence would be considered ulterior motives.

If silence is no longer allowed,

It would be a crime to praise not doing enough.

If only one voice is allowed,

The only voice that exists, then, is a lie.

---Plato

A healthy society should be more than just a voice

A healthy society should not be just a voice

    Villeneuve + Diggins, two people are enough to make this movie commendable visually and atmospherically. The continuous aerial photography from the U.S. into Mexico is so amazing, I directly think of Harris Savides in the Zodiac! But overall it is not as good as "The Prisoner", mainly because it is a pity that Emily Blunt, a clue-like key figure, did not write well. It feels like she has been asking "why". . .

    The film is very rare to combine the serious themes of mainstream dramas with the pure entertainment of Xingfang movies, and it has a good combination of casts. This movie is not at all busy.

Sicario quotes

  • Phil Coopers: [assuring Kate] Advisors like Matt come in, they stir the pot, they cause the criminals to react and make mistakes. That's how we build cases against the individuals that actually make a difference in this fight. It's when they're nervous, when they stop trusting their crews, when they move their money. These are all opportunities to strike. And that's the purpose of people like Matt.

    Dave Jennings: Kate, this isn't something that I dreamed up myself. I don't have the authority to hire advisors, or authorize joint agency missions, or fly agents from Air Force bases. Are you understanding me? These decisions are made far from here, by officials elected to office, not appointed to them. So, if your fear is operating out of bounds, I am telling you, you are not. The boundary's been moved.

  • Reggie Wayne: [sitting in a bar] Look at you. Your eyebrows are a mess.

    Kate Macer: [hiding her face] No, they're not!

    Reggie Wayne: They're like caterpillars, like wild beasts. You're losing weight.

    Kate Macer: I'm eating.

    Reggie Wayne: Look at you. What is it, one T-shirt a week? At least work on your personal hygiene, huh?

    Kate Macer: You sound like my mother.

    Reggie Wayne: Maybe I *am* your mother. First we work on personal hygiene, then we move on to the shopping.
