Machete

A ridiculously over the top movie that pulls no punches on the gore, nudity and despicable characters that only a tribute to exploitation movies can do. Expertly directed by Robert Rodriguez this is exactly what you think it is. Look at the cast!: Besides Danny Trejo in the title role we have Robert De Niro as Sen. McLaughlin, Steven Seagal as Torrez (a truly horrible man), Doc Johnson as Von (equally horrible), Jeff Fahey as Booth (ditto) and let's not forget the women in this movie, Jessica Alba as Sartana, an immigration cop, Michelle Rodriguez as Luz who may or may not be the underground resistance leader She (and who hasn't looked better), and Lindsay Lohan as Booth's daughter April. Add to that Tom Savini, Daryl Sabara, and Cheech Marin! Never mind the plot! You don't see this movie for the plot, you see it for the crazy action, stunts, gore, babes, etc. A true grindhouse film I do hope these guys (Rodriguez, Roth, Tarantino) continue to do this kind of film besides their other films once in a while. They have all captured the look and feel of an era that was the 70's exploitation film. A fun time! Recommended!
