My rating: 7.5/10
Will I watch it again? Yes.
This is Robert Rodriguez's big screen follow-up to his breakout smash, EL MARIACHI (1992). It's part remake and part sequel but with a budget and some familiar names and faces in the cast. Like his other work, it's fun. It suffers from a little drag here and there around the 2/3 mark but it's not going to get in the way of a very fun ride with Mexico's newest action hero, El Mariachi! The characters are fun, the acting is right where it needs to be and the humor is a hoot. It also appears that everyone involved with this picture had a blast making it. It's that kind of action movie.
