  One thing I need to clerify for all my non-Spanish speaking brothers and sisters out there is the part where Alejandro sneaks up on the cartel members exiting the car during the highway shootout scene. The subtitles read &quot;In peace. In peace.&quot; That is NOT what Alejandro is saying! He&apos;s actually saying &quot;Compas! Compas!&quot; Which is short for &quot;Compadre&quot; which basically means &quot;fellas&quot;. He&apos;s basically saying &quot;Fellas! Fellas!&quot; while trying to defuse the situation. Just wanted to clear that up. Carry on.

  There&apos;s definitely no &apos;would you kill baby Hitler&apos; in the first one; the whole point of him killing the kids is so that the man who ordered them feels the same thing that he felt before he dies. It&apos;s 100% the aspect of revenge rather than any further purpose.

  My favorite exchange is right before Alejandro goes to “waterboard” the Cartel Lieutenant, he runs into his former lawyer buddy in the hallway, who tells him “I’m sorry for what happened to you.” It’s easy to assume he meant what happened with Alejandro’s family, until you see him smoke the entire cartel boss’s kids. Upon further reflection, maybe that’s what he really meant, the monster that grief turned him into. I love double meanings like that.

  the main thing with Alejandro gillick is that his life was so torn apart by the cartel that his mind stopped thinking about civilian life . <br>he took his life and his main story is not working 9-5 and living the normal life , but to find and eliminate every enemy by his own ethos .<br>its like creating a monster and unleashing him on the ones that made him that &nbsp;monster . <br>look about his moral code , there is no right or wrong there is a clear goal . <br>even after he took down the cartel boss he continued on to finish off everything they represent .<br>--- <br>the reason he cleaned out his family is that without emotions or moral involved he knows that the enterprise will live on with his family so he killed the entire wolf pack .

  One of the reasons it&apos;s one of my favorite movies is exactly because the ending. Not many movies have the balls to pull a scene like that.

  One of the important things to understand about Alejandro is that he doesn&apos;t work for the CIA. He works with the CIA. &nbsp; His actual employers are the Colombian Cartels who have CIA connections and mutual antipathy for the Mexican Cartels. &nbsp;He is an actual Sicario. That&apos;s why the film is titled Sicario.

  Funny thing: they filmed Sicario here in the outskirts of Mexico City, because they did NOT want to risk filming anywhere near the US-Mexico border, SPECIALLY Ciudad Juárez.

  Small correction: the Delta operator in the photo of protecting General Schwarzkopf is actually named Bill Cronin (Mike Vining confirmed this). Which just tells us that a ton of Delta Operators and spooks look like Rick Moranis, but instead it&apos;s Honey I Shrunk the Populations of Several Third World Countries.

  Secario is a trick movie. &nbsp;We are meant to think it’s Kate’s story, but it’s actually Alejandro’s story all along, as seen through Kate’s eyes. &nbsp;Kate tells us Alejandro’s tale from the point of view of an honest cop, shocked and ultimately broken by the experience. &nbsp;That’s why it’s a great movie.

  The ATF might know of some UMP45s or MP7s in Mexico.

  Kate seeing a guy in flip flops running the meeting with her boss and not instantly clocking him as CIA is damn near criminal.
