Diaz was perfect; only problem was she may have been a tad too deadly and evil looking---- how didn't Cruz or Fassbdender get a clue? Javier noticed, but he seemed not to give a damn, the excitement was key for his character.
I think Tarantino or the Coens would have made a better film, but they wouldn't have kept the insanity of the philosophizing. It may have been also more entertaining as a caper film and that's why this was so successful: it balanced the violence with the moral.
I bet a viewer with a taste for the white stuff will think about a headless young woman before her/his next snort.
To make too exciting or entertaining, in the classical sense, a film would have been pornographic, in a deep sense. There's nothing fun about the drug trade, about the cartel, about their heartlessness and savagery. Comparing them to cheetahs, even, is an insult to the felines.

It's always been a big genre. And now, those cartels have more clout than ever did the bad ol' Mafia. nt - tinear 13:56:51 05/31/14 (0)

The little gadget with the motor inside and the motorcycle scene steal the show. Ridley's one sick dude. nt - geoffkait 12:55:34 05/31/14 (0)
