This was one great hilarious pile of fun and is another Trejo Cult Classic!
This movie was really a compilation of classic cult movies, television shows and havoc and comedy in general. I am not your usual Trejo fan. I am almost as old as Mr. Trejo and a pasty white female.(Speaking of which MAY 16 GIRLS KISS DANNY TREJO ON MAY 16 FOR HIS BIRTHDAY) But I am greatly enamored of movies like Pink Panther, James Bond,.Dr Strangelove,Star wars, Lethal Weapon, Rhinestone Cowboy, Desperado, Face Off, Show me the Money, Mad Max, and also love Lady Gaga, Modern Family, and Justified.If you throw all these productions into a Cuisinart, you'll have this movie! You had times of excitement, action, sadness, and laughter at the pure fun the actors were having. I love anything with lots of explosions, car crashes, dope slaps, gunfire,blood and gore, and fight scenes with tongue-in-cheek comedy thrown in. I love seeing strong women (I've been described as a "make my day" kind of person or as having a Pit Bull in my background) and the good guy coming out on top in the end. I will never think the same way about "double D's" and "Strap-ons" after this movie. I love that Mr. Trejo is getting roles now where he gets the girl! He is leading man handsome and always has been! He deserves it. I love his topographically beautiful face and suspect that his scowl muscles got a bit tired in this delightful romp of an action adventure because he successfully prevented himself from smiling or even sneering a bit. That took a lot of great facial muscle control. My only disappointment is that it took about an hour into the film before we got to clearly gawk at his impressive upper body. This man's musculature is outstanding, no matter how old he gets! Plus, I was delighted to see as he was dining with Voz that the food must have been a bit tough to saw through as his defined shoulder muscles showed as he cut through it. What did they give him to cut, oak kindling? We also got a great glimpse of his impressive bare chest and tattoos in the "healing" pool scene. I was sorry that they cut the scene of the "Baby Trejo" although it was in some of the bonus features, I suspect however, that some the lower body dimensions of certain attributes of that model baby clone were obviously smaller than they would really be if it truly were a Mr. Trejo clone. (Just guessing based on his macho-ness!) I also have a great deal of respect and admiration for the person Mr. Trejo is when he is "off the job." I didn't think it was possible to make a sequel any better than the original Machete, but his was a really great movie and Mr. Robert Rodriguez' genius continues to shine as well as Mr. Trejo's talent! I cannot wait for the third in the series. Hopefully the third will be followed by a fourth and so on. If anyone can clean up the evil from the universe it is Mr. Trejo! Keep it up, you guys. I'll buy any other movies you make!

It is what it is... Machete Kills!
If you like to see the same old thing recycled over and over again and continually sold to you as the new greatest movie, while trying extremely hard to cover up all its flaws; then this movie is not for you. If you want to get what you expect and love movies in general than this movie is for you. Look Robert Rodriguez does not hide anything from you unlike these other "blockbuster" movies, who try way to hard to make a good action movie and have a great idea for the action but no story to wrap it in. Instead they think that you will be so caught up into the action that you will not pay any attention to how bad the story or acting is and hope you will be fooled by the explosions and special effects. Robert brings all of the short comings of these major films and brings them front and center right from the get go. He is basically saying this is an action movie and you will get action and he is no trying to pretend like he is going to wrap a good story around it and ultimately make you feel like you wasted your money because the story is pure garbage, but rather give you completely outrageous action sequences that make no sense and have huge gaps it, but you won't care, because you know from the start this what you are getting. There is no need to go into breaking down the story or the acting like the others have because there isn't much to breakdown. I honestly believe that Robert worked harder on this movie than most other film directors do on big hits just for the simple reason that he had to take a turd and polish it(it's possible ask the Mythbusters). He took a 1980s action movie and made it more outrageous than it already is. This movie is fun, gross, and non-stop, and it deserves to be purchased by anyone who takes the time to read these reviews period.

Blood and guts
Typical Machete movie, blood and gore same old story

Lots of gore and senseless violence - Great
This is a must see for any Robert Rodriguez or Quentin Tarantino fans. (Their work is so similar).. Reviewing this is somewhat mute as this is a sequel and somewhat dependent on the first film.. If you likes the first film you will like this and if you hated the first film you will hate this. Be advised that Rodriguez buys his prop blood by the barrel. You can't compare it to Desperado or Spy Kids. This fits in with planet terror. The violent scenes often border on the ridiculous. I often feel concerned because I laugh at some of the gore, but hay, Chopping someone in half vertically is totally ridiculous.I often wonder at how he gets the big names for his obviously small budget movies This movie includes; Mel Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez, Charlie Sheen, Lady Gaga, Cheech Marin, Cuba Gooding Jr., and Elon Musk All this with a budget of $20 Million. They obviously want to be in one of his movies.The first movie had; Robert De Niro, Jessica Alba, Steven Seagal, Michelle Rodriguez, Cheech Marin, Don Johnson and Lindsay Lohan with total budget of $10,500,000.It is interesting that Charlie Sheen is listed in the credits as Carlos Estévez which is his real name but I have never seen it used in credits before.It is also interesting that the Machete character started in a Spy Kids film. He was Uncle Machete. The two movies couldn't be more different.I admit to loving both films and have purchase them on Blu-Ray after seeing them multiple times.I highly recommend this movie to anyone who is not put off by gore and senseless violence.

A Well Received Gift !
This is another item given as a gift. The relative in question was happy to get it. I get why. The first film was awesome. This one gives a good impression of itself as well. I am glad for the sellers quick service in sending it along so well as it is a film that was well received as the gift it was meant to be.

Uno Spassoso TRASH MOVIE
Il film è uno spasso. Se si ha amato il primo film questo non deluderà, chiaro è che il film è Trashezza allo stato pure.Mel Gibson è il super cattivo dagli occhi blu, che vuole messicani da rendere schiavi e servitori anche nello spazio, se fossero stati ebrei sarebbe stato lui 100%.Lady Gaga è la Camaleon, chi meglio di lei rappresenta l’arte del travestimento ? inoltre è divertente pensare il fatto che lei nel film “possa” essere un uomo…va di pari passo col famoso "mebro" che lei dice di nascondere tra le cosce. MITICA e miglior scelta per il suo esordio sul grande schermo!!! La Rodriguez è sempre la solita Bad Girl di tutti i suoi film. Sofia Vergara fa il super mign*****e di una casa di appuntamenti messicana. Jessica Alba, vincitrice dell’oscar come peggior attrice nel primo machete, è ancora in gara per vincere il secondo. La super Bella Amber Heard interpreta una Miss tutta pugni e calci, non distante dal vero personaggio ribelle che sembra essere nella realtà. Charlie Sheen qui per la prima volta col vero nome Carlos Estevez interpreta un presidente degli stati uniti super donnaiolo…!!!E Banderas…be miglior parte…lo spagnolo che finge sul finale di essere americano…ho detto tutto!!!CONSIGLIATISSIMO a chi ha amato il primo film!!! Altri Astenersi
