Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

slightlymad22 Continuing my plan to watch every Mel Gibson movie in order, I come to Machete Kills (2013)Plot In A Paragraph: The U.S. government recruits Machete (Danny Trejo) to battle his way through Mexico in order to take down an arms dealer (Gibson) who looks to launch a weapon into space.In nothing more than a glorified cameo (Playing a villain on screen for the first time) Gibson hams it up in full pantomime villain mode, playing essentially a Bond villain. We don't even see him until the hour mark. How you view Machete Kills will totally depend on your frame of mind when you watch it, and how you feel about B movies in general. I was in the mood for something silly, and I enjoyed it's craziness!! Like an Expendables movie, this is loaded with stunt casting that looks like they were filmed over a couple of days!! Jessica Alba, Vanessa Hudgens, Cuba Gooding Jr, Lady GaGa, a grown up Alexa Vega (who only has one line throughout the film, but what a bum she has!!) and Sofia Vergara and her double D's. It amused me to see Charlie Sheen credited under his real name, Carlos Estevez (He even has an "introducing" billing lol )Machete Kills tanked at the domestic box office, only grossing $7 million dollars. Which sadly ended the franchise before we got to see 'Machette Kills Again In Space' which is a shame as I thought it looked hilariously entertaining.

mistoppi Usually sequels are worse than the originals, right? But obviously no rules apply to Machete or Machete Kills. The weaknesses and strengths of the two movies are pretty much the same: They are both hilarious and amazingly violent. Both have easy plots and all that. The cast of characters is even more amazing this time. Of course there are some same characters in this film as well, but some of the new ones are even weirder. Sofia Vergara with the boob guns that could be straight from Austin Powers -movie? Cuba Gooding Jr., Lady Gaga and Antonio Banderas playing the same character? Charlie Sheen - I mean Carlos Estevez - as the president of United States? All the characters are ridiculous and greater than previously. Thank you, writers!Machete Kills made me pay more attention to the dialogue. Of course, again it was filled with one-liners, but it was very colourful. Like I said previously, the plot of this movie is very simple, but it took some wild B-movie extremes. It was amazing, and I won't complain about that. All those B-movie effects make these movies what they are.Machete Kills is just as hilarious and violent as the first one. I don't think it needs any recommending. If you liked the first one, you'll like this one too, I promise.

steveraw I won't mess about here. Danny Trejo as a leading actor is like Buggs Bunny as a Presidential candidate. It's a laughable gimmick and nothing more. Gaga? Stick to nut-ball musical performances. Acting is your kryptonite you pointless creature. Machete Kills is a train wreck of an action movie. The plot is thin and basic. At the halfway point I found myself wondering if I was actually drunk and imagining the whole thing. It sort of blurred it's elements together to pass off as continuity but still felt like a bad trip.2 stars because 1)They managed to come up with a budget to produce this filth, and 2)They made it in colour.Confusing junk.

bensonmum2 Plot summary - Machete is hired by the U.S. government to find a madman in Mexico bent on launching weapons into space. Sounds crazy, huh? It is. As with the original Machete, the plot isn't as important as the action on the screen. If you've seen Machete, then you pretty much know what to expect from Machete Kills. It's more of the same with added fighting, explosions, and general mayhem. There are a couple of new things and characters in this one that I really enjoyed. I'll start with Mel Gibson. What a blast! He's so over-the-top, it's impossible not to enjoy every minute he's on screen. The same goes for Amber Heard and Charlie Sheen's (or Carlos Estevez) characters - Miss San Antonio and the President of the U.S. Awesome stuff!But, while I rated the first movie a 9/10, I'm only giving Machete Kills a 7/10. Obviously, there are some things that didn't work for me as well in this movie. First, Machete Kills would have benefited with more Michelle Rodriguez. She disappears for too long a stretch of the movie. Second, and more seriously, Machete Kills is really hurt by the lack of an ending. I understand exactly what Robert Rodriguez was trying to do, but it didn't go over well with me. Still, I'm looking forward to the next installment.
