Best movie of this year hands down!

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The last part of Mexico trilogy. Robert Rodriguez, Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Johnny Depp, Mickey Rourke, Eva Mendes, Danny Trejo, Enrique Iglesias, Cheech Martin, Willem Dafoe... simply amazing amount of big names in it, yet movie is nothing more than mediocre. It is not waste of your time, but I wouldn't watch it again and I am not recommending it..............................................................

The sequel to the vastly superior DESPERADO is a more traditional kind of action movie, but with enough style from Rodriguez (think of offbeat camera-work and bizarre performances), charisma from Antonio Banderas as the smouldering hero, insanity from Johnny Depp in a kooky performance better than that of PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN, and brain-dead action to recommend it to thrill-junkies. Once again, we're back in the hot and sweaty city streets south of the border, although this time the plot is far from simple, and instead rather muddled. It involves an evil army general, a plot to overthrow the Mexican president, El Mariachi and his friends plotting revenge, and a psychotic CIA agent who enlists the help of ex-FBI agent Ruben Blades to take down a drug lord who is changing his face. Got that? The cast alone makes this worth watching. Depp's character undergoes the most entertaining – if OTT – transformation, and believe me when I say you've never seen anything like. Banderas doesn't take such a main role here, it being an ensemble piece, but he's indistinguishable from his earlier incarnation in terms of looks and charisma. Salma Hayek returns for a brief series of flashbacks, and Eva Mendes impresses as a cold femme fatale. Not only do Danny Trejo and Cheech Marin return from the last in the series, but we get Willem Dafoe as a sinister drug lord, Mickey Rourke as a Chihuahua-loving hit man and even singer Enrique Iglesias in a lacklustre performance. What more could you possibly want? Well, there's gratuitous violence and black comedy in spades, as well as impressive shoot-outs and some explosive action come the finale. The plot may not be up to much but it certainly moves fast and there's never time to get bored. This is an entertainment piece, nothing more and nothing less, but certainly a film I'll enjoy watching a few more times.

I am confused. There are too many main characters which are hard to follow. The idea of the movie is probably good but it's made bad. You will be confused between switching the main roles and basically in the end of the movie you can't say what is the point of the movie. Is it the love between Johnny Depp and Eva Mendes or the revenge of Banderas, or the rescue of the country or ... or... or... ten more plots. At least the acting is kinda good but if it has to be compared with other movie from the same kind it goes to the bottom, at least for me.The including of Enrique Iglesias is horrible idea... Why? This guy is good for a romantic movie not for a thrilling action. Just imagine Jason Statham in a dramatic romantic movie with zero action in it. It's just not working. If they wanted a good movie, we ( the spectators ) need more things around the storyline of the characters. Okay Banderas one is good, but Johnny Depp's?? It's not so clear what does he wants in this movie. I rate it 4/10 , there is a lot more that everyone wants to see in this movie.

So-so. Starts well, builds to a point, and then just falls apart. Was quite interesting and had the makings of a good drama but ultimately just degenerates into a mindless action movie. Antonio Banderas gets top billing but it is Johnny Depp who probably gets more airtime. Plus, Salma Hayek gets second billing, but we don't see much of her, unfortunately. All three deliver good performances, however. Good support from Mickey Rourke, Eva Mendes, Willem Dafoe and Dabby Trejo. Enrique Iglesias can be seen in a minor role. Cheech Marin gets his customary role as wisecracking minor character.
