I've been looking forward to this movie ever since I saw the fake trailer during the "Grindhouse" intermission. A totally over the top "B" movie that had gore, humor, and nudity. A deadly combination to say the least. The final product wasn't as good as the fake trailer, but it still has some redeeming qualities. The character of Machete doesn't have enough ammo to sustain a feature length movie, so the jokes and killings become redundant. It still was a fun time watching it for the first time, but not a movie that gets better the more times you watch it. There are some funny political views mixed in with the gore as well.
After watching his family killed, Machete is set up by the U.S. government as an assassin. Machete then has to fight for the Mexican cause.
This movie is fun, but wears thin at times. Could've been great, but it's a decent time at the movies.
