Terrifically written and shot - economically and tightly on the first count and quite spectacularly on the second - and just generally a very well put together and involving film. It doesn't ever seem like Kate's involvement with the murkily not-by-the-books 'cross agency team' that is conducting an escalating - and exciting - series of operations targeting a Mexican drug cartel is going to end well, and it doesn't, but that's as it should be. Also, for the first time I really realise what the fuss is about Emily Blunt, who is thoroughly convincing (also Benicio del Toro, inscrutably and dangerously charismatic).
