Publisher's Synopsis
In director Ridley Scott's fast-paced thriller, a lawyer discovers he's bitten off more than he can chew when he becomes involved in the cocaine trade. In need of some extra money to finance his burgeoning lifestyle, The Counsellor (Michael Fassbender) decides to try dabbling in some cocaine trafficking across the Mexican border with the help of rich business acquaintance Reiner (Javier Bardem) and shifty facilitator Westray (Brad Pitt). But when a large shipment is mysteriously hijacked and disappears without trace, all three men find themselves facing their worst nightmare as the out-of pocket suppliers seek to exact their revenge in a hailstorm of blood and bullets.
