I just saw that movie with DiCraprico and that was one of my favorite movies in several years. The bear scene was maybe my favorite scene of all time. I also liked the opening scene with the arrows going through people skulls.

I LOVED this movie. Very very good in my opinion, even better than Creed.

We saw the Wall Street movie yesterday and it was pretty good, informative. I'm more angry about nobody going to jail for that than Steve Avery going to jail for killing that girl.

Sicario was a masterpiece.

Move to a small town where the rule of law still exists. This is a land of wolves now, and you are not a wolf.
Yeah that was a great line.

Benecio Del Toro when he's interrogating that guy they kidnapped from Mexico. He uhh...raped that guy, right? The person I watched it with didn't pick up on that.

I can't tell. I think the water was for water boarding but he might have impaled him on it or something. There is certainly a rapey vibe with how he stands with his crotch in his face, then the muffled grunting.
yea that seen made me uncomfortable...but i assume it was waterboarding.

I think the water was to make everyone else in the room (besides Brolin) think that was what was coming. And then he tells them all to leave so they don't actually see it. It shows the drain and there's no water going down it. I found a thread elsewhere that agrees with that, saying it's kind of a running theme throughout the movie. Everyone kinda knows things are bad, but the reality is actually worse than anyone realizes.

IMO, this is what has given us Trump, Cruz, and Sanders.

Almost all of the night vision/thermal vision stuff was CGI and it was pretty crappy.

I saw this with my dad. It was excellent. It is an excellent movie to see with your dad or your son, depending on what is available.

Also, when I go camping, if I step in a cold river or my clothes get wet, it really, really sucks. Starting a fire with wet wood really sucks. I have a ton of respect for the physical toll this movie must have taken on the guys making it.
