Review of The Tax Collector (2020) by Jluis_001 — 11 Sep 2020

In terms of entertainment, frankly there isn't much, especially when Ayer's approach seems more interested in exalting the deplorable narcoculture, in addition to the fact that the conflict is practically as predictable as it is unsatisfactory.

Another problem results from its Latino cast, which gets the opportunity to be the lead characters and unfortunately re-nurtures the idea that in the Latino community everyone is either a gardener, a gang member or a cartel member.

The Tax Collector doesn't contribute anything relevant or exciting and is perhaps David Ayer's most disappointing work to date.

Here the only name that deserves mention is Shia LaBeouf and it's not because he does much with the character but because of his commitment to the role. Something known in him, and even if the material is poor, the guy works.
