REVIEW and ANALYSIS - THE COUNSELOR - 6/10 - A corrupt mob lawyer (Fassbender) gets mixed up in the Mexican drug trade. First, consider the films pedigree - writer Cormack McCarthy, director Ridley Scott, and a cast to die for - Michael Fassbender, Cameron Diaz, Brad Pitt, Javier Bardem, Penelope Cruz. Unfortunately, this is a vapid action film - why? - Because Cormack McCarthy and Fassbender have created an antihero we dont care about - yes guys, when you put together an antihero, we actually have to like him - think Walter White, Tony Soprano. So, Fassbeners character flies too close to the flame and gets burner, gee, what a surprise.
