a misunderstood classic

Damion 2022-04-19 09:01:36

A few years ago, I watched <>, and there was a very short preview at the beginning. Old-fashioned plot, old-fashioned music, old-fashioned graphics, porn, violence, money, beauty. It's really a "cheesy" movie.

Like Quentin Tarantino, Rodriguez is paying homage to the era he grew up in in his own way.

There is no connotation in the film, there is no special entanglement. The sheer violence is heartwarming. Without a lot of unnecessary constraints, explanations, close-ups and foreshadowing, it directly shows exciting pictures, and brings out a sense of joy to the old-fashioned plots that have been played thousands of times.

Looking at a familiar face, a story of a pure man.

It doesn't need any Oscars, but it gives an enjoyable 2 hours.

    This movie was watched on and off, and there were guests who wanted to eat freshly baked cakes, so I missed the beginning, but fortunately I didn't miss the ending and the climax of the fight. But one word: this is not my favorite movie. The action isn't good at all. I think the blood and the dew point of the female star may be the selling point of this movie. Time-wasting movie! ! !

Machete quotes

  • Senator McLaughlin: Well, I wanna thank y'all for coming out today, and I wanna thank my supporters from the bottom of my heart. Because we have been tested - tested by fire. Our border has been put to the test, and let me tell you: we have failed that test. The aliens, the infiltrators, the outsiders, they come right across by light of day or dark of night. They'll bleed us, they're parasites. They'll bleed us until we as a city, a county, a state, a nation are all bled out. Make no mistake: we are at war. Every time an illegal dances across our border it is an act of aggression against this sovereign state, an overt act of terrorism. Everywhere I go in this state people are talking about change. I say "why change"? This is a great state founded on the principles of liberty, I don't wanna change that. Our rightful citizens are hardworking Americans who earn their paychecks by the grit of their guts and the sweat of their brow! I don't wanna change that! "Change," that's what they want, change. Change the laws, open the doors. Red rover, red rover, let the terrorists come over! Let me tell you what change that'll bring: 68 cents. The jingle-jangle of pennies in your pocket because the scavengers, the leeches, the parasites are walking away with your money, while you're left with the change. So, I wanna say one more thing: who you gonna vote for?

  • Sartana: I started working on the night shift taking out the trash. But I worked my way up. As translator, assistant... Now I'm Special Agent in charge of investigations.

    Machete: Sounds like they still got you taking out the trash.
