Michael M Fun, entertaining, strong supporting cast, and parodies B-movies very well, and it really represents what's going on with our country, especially Texas, today. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/18/24 Full Review Blu B It's self aware, totally mindless fun, and entertaining. If it just would've cut back on a few things like too many characters and the plot gets a bit too complex this could've been good but man it's so close. The music is solid and is awesome a lot of times but other times it just gets generic and disappears also here and there. Everything else is half decent. Whenever this isn't violent or isn't focused on Machete is when it gets a bit boring and the acting sometimes takes a step down and is forgettable. It really jumps around a lot and gets a bit too hard too follow in detail. Scenes with Rodriguez, Johnson, and Fahey defintely could've been trimmed down as they don't add much. It should've just focused on Alba (probably the best character in this), Danny, DeNiro, and Seagal. The action especially the ending is just laugh out loud mindless fun and very creative and is the best par. Super over the top gore heavy in a comedic way and lots of practical effects with some shotty CGI for good measure. This very much maintains the Grindhouse exploitation tone origins the entire way as well. If your a big fan of the director, any actors in this, exploitiation, or love Grindhouse give this a try. It's dumb fun that just needed to cut back on the excess at certain points. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/24 Full Review Yash B "Machete" is completely nonsensical and silly, but it is completely self-aware. I think this type of movie is just a solid pick if you want something full of violence and fast-paced entertainment. The movie has a slick style that makes it fun and I really think you will know if you're on the movie's wavelength in less than ten minutes. I do think the movie is a bit uneven in pacing in that it has action scenes scattered around and comes to a halt once they stop. I also felt with its revenge plot I expected a much more insane finale. Nonetheless, it is still a decent movie and has a lot of fun elements I genuinely had a good time watching it. Overall, it is a movie that knows it is not some artsy award winner, and it is refreshing to watch something like this every now and then and just have a goofy fun time.
