Machete Kills

Movie Rating: Agathe Tissier

Machete is assigned by the US president to find a madman who plans to blow up the earth.

Recruited by the president of the US (Charlie Sheen!!) in exchange for a clean record, Machete, a tough-as-nails former Mexican federale whose look says it all, is assigned to kill Luther Voz, the mad CEO (Mel Gibson) of a weapons conglomerate. First he has to find the bipolar Mexican revolutionary to whom Voz sold a nuclear weapon, which is aimed at planet Earth. Voz has an evil plan to start a new society in space once the blue planet has been destroyed...

He’s not chatty, but he has lots of charm: Danny Trejo returns in this parody of 1970’s B-movie action, in which the Latinos get some serious revenge on the gringos. Silly, funny, trashy, with barely-clad female sidekicks who may or may not carry a loaded bra, and an inexplicable plot generously filled out with bloodshed – all filmed in less than a month in a former airplane hangar somewhere in Texas that was transformed into a movie studio by straight-shooter Robert Rodriguez.
