<big><big>The Counselor (or Cartel as it is called here)</big></big> MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS

Before the movie :

Not much to say, got bored so i decided to go to the cinema.

Movie Plot :

The story of a greedy lawyer who gets involved in drug trafficking near the AmericanoMexican border, which will turn badly and threaten the lawyer and his associates.

My impressions :

+ The cast : Fassbender, Cruz, Diaz, Bardem, Pitt. Usually i don't consider an all star cast as a + but here it's the only positive thing about this movie.

- The cast, because with actors like this you go to the cinema with high expectations and end up disappointed by the movie.
- No empathy for any character. I absolutely couldn't care about them, i don't even remember the name of any character.
- The way Fassbender's character is linked to the one who is kind of responsible of the way his drug trafficking is f*cked, absolutely no sense.
- Slow and boring, the dialogues are empty, but i mean really slooooooooow and booooooooring.

To conclude, this movie is a complete failure. I feel like they've put everything on the cast but the story, dialogues and almost everything is bad, i think if it didn't have Ridley Scott and these actors' names it would have been a direct to dvd.
