This Mexican is deadly with a machete; but you should see how much better he is with a leaf blower.

Is this the film where the idea is that illegal immigrants kill anti-illegal immigrant politicians in Arizona??

Yeah I saw the trailer, latinos killing evil white people who are against illegal immigration.

No thanks.

You got that right. Too bad they overproduced the Zorro films. Perhaps a bit more comedy would have helped the franchise last longer.

Any reason that Machete isn’t going after the murderous drug lords and the corrupt politicians and police in Mexico?

“Tequila, shaken, not stirred” just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Will the Latin James Bond drive a Aston Jalopy?

Will he have a “license to immigrate”?

Will he get briefings from Miss Pesopenny?

What happens when you cross an illegal Mexican with an elderly Asian? A car thief who can’t drive.

This is the film being incorrectly described that way by many commentators who haven’t actually seen it. In reality it’s a blaxploitation flick with a Mexican, lots of violence, some explosions, gratuitous nudity, and some semblance of a plot that nobody who’s going to watch the movie is going to pay any attention.
