Martin's impression of "Sicario" was quite lasting because the film was indeed unique.
Among the cast were not only Thanos and a werewolf, but most importantly, the female lead.
Emily Blunt portrayed the heroine who, at first, seemed to be the absolute protagonist, but ended up just hanging around idly for most of the film, with the lead role shifting to someone else midway through.
Even this female character had no role in advancing the plot whatsoever.
Perhaps it could be described as dragging out the dark world of the US-Mexico Border for the audience to see, from a woman's perspective.
Martin carefully put away the script and business card, recalling again.
He wasn't sure how the film did at the box office, but he remembered one thing: "Sicario" had a sequel.
Like all Hollywood investors including himself, a movie that didn't make money would never get a second investment.
This was the best proof of commercial value.
