The Counselor (2013)


The Counselor by legendary director Ridley Scott is a mix of many things: Cormac McCarthy writing, Scott's directing and a handful of master actors. Unfortunately, The Counselor is a movie that was swallowed by the audience due to the way it was promoted. This is not an escapist film, it's not an action thriller like all of us expected. On the other hand it is not a profoundly philosophical movie for intellectuals. It is, yes, a movie to feel, to enjoy through incredible dialogs and noir performances through a visual study of greed, love, choices and consequences. It is not a definitive movie, it does not deepen what it presents, but it feasts you with excellency, one that will leave you hypnotized and thoughtful throughout. And that is undeniably great film-making.
