4. Filmparadiset

8 / 10

Translated from swedish: "Sicario 2: Soldado" is on many levels more entertaining than its predecessor, even if they don't quite walk the same path. The film offers an engaging story, filled with suspense, action-packed sequences, superb actors, wonderful music, and never really lets you catch your breath as a viewer.

5. Filmbladet

7 / 10

Translated from swedish: "Sicario 2: Soldado" is a very good sequel, which gives us many interesting perspectives from the same world that we saw in the predecessor. It's not as good, but it's definitely good enough to both "bear the name" and to be seen in theaters.

6. Nöjesguiden

6.7 / 10

Translated from swedish: "Sicario 2: Soldado" is a film that is topical in many ways. But while the first film managed to be an exciting action film while also being a hot political potato for the American establishment, the sequel focuses more on being a competent action thriller. The violence is bloody, raw, and uncompromising.

7. Svenska Dagbladet

6.7 / 10

Translated from swedish: All the rule books have been thrown in the trash in the US war against the Mexican drug cartels. On the whole, "Sicario 2: Soldado" is a hard-hitting tragic meditation on the crushing of the very last illusions of decency.

Translated from swedish: A tough and unnecessary sequel that doesn't add anything new.
