How director Denis Villeneuve builds tension in Sicario

Oooh! This is a fantastic video exposé about one of my favorite movies, Sicario! CineFix notes that one of the reasons why Sicario feels so tense is due to the directing of Denis Villeneuve who builds up tension for almost 30 minutes straight and then in an instant relieves it with clean yet deadly violence. CineFix argues that the rest of the movie doesn't really follow through in this same way, but from what I remember, the rest of the movie doesn't falter one bit from the start. Still good all the way through for me!
