8 foreign reviews of Sicario (2015)

1. Fredrik Fyhr

8.7 / 10

Translated from swedish: It is an incredibly skilled study in silent psychological terror, and the most austere imaginable suspense, for adults who dare to look down the barrel of a gun.

2. Aftonbladet

8 / 10

Translated from swedish: The central characters are multifaceted. It's not entirely clear who is on the side of the good and the evil. And Villeneuve doesn't work like other directors.

6. Uppsala Nya Tidning

8 / 10

Translated from swedish: It is so effective, so softly pulsing, so restrained aggressive, so nagging unpleasant, that I sit here longing to get home and hug my daughter.
