The Counselor
“Sin is a choice.”
ThrillerCrimeDrama
A lawyer finds himself in far over his head when he attempts to get involved in drug trafficking.
VIBE
This is a suffocating descent into a morally bankrupt world, where every choice carries a crushing weight. It feels like a philosophical meditation on greed and consequence, draped in a stylish, yet relentlessly bleak, criminal underworld aesthetic. The tension is palpable, the atmosphere oppressive, leaving a lingering sense of dread.
