Finally watched Sicario

I know this is a pretty universally liked movie around here, but one of the biggest things that caught my attention was just how much the CIA dominated every part of the movie. The movie does a phenomenal job at dragging you along the way that Blunt is, you think you know what its going to be like, "Oh Emily Blunt is going to roll up with the CIA and kick narco ass" then it changes

The CIA and CAG guys roll the gangsters without breaking a sweat, the whole movie you just... feel that Brolin's character lives the phrase

"You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it." (Mass Effect)

But it does a fantastic job of capturing the futility of the cartel war.

For all that they've done in the movie, it's just sowing chaos and trying to pick the winner. As much as the CIA dominated the tactical situation, the strategic victory, "Until we convince 20% of the population to stop snorting and shooting up, this is the best we can do" is lost to them
