Robert Rodriguez made "The Scimitar" into a series, which seems to be to fill the end of the "Guitar Prodigal Elmarach" trilogy to another extent. As soon as he entered the industry, La Fengluo began to concoct a series of "Mexican Ranger Legends", eager to create Mexican Wu Yusen hero films and Italian western films, such as "Elegy of the Killer", "Desperadoes", "Desperados", "Once Upon a Time in Mexico", the same dove church, gunfire, and ranger rushing around, but with the special chicness brought by the Mexican guitar, not only that, Ronaldinho also added a considerable number of clues, suggesting the location of these films Under the same worldview, for example, "Machete" has a musical theme similar to "Elmarach", and the classic "shotgun" has appeared in Tom Savigny's The crotch, the guitar case of Antonio Banderas in "Desperados" and the crotch of Sophia Vergara in the latest "Machete Killing" are like fans discussing Quentin's "Falling Dog" frantically Are Michael Madsen and John Travolta in "Pulp Fiction" brothers or not? La Fengluo also gives these "rough and inferior" films fine.
"Machete Killing" continues the predecessor's deliberately inferior and embarrassing posture. It is not as simple as using false special effects like a series of children's films by La Fengluo to fool and support it, but it is not as powerful as "Sin "City of the City" is so purely styled, and its fun lies in the strong "adult fairy tale" color: a Mexican version of James Bond looks so arbitrary, and the previous Mexican version of Red Dead, Antonio Banderas. It's not the same, and it's such a guy who always calls his name stupidly. There are countless beauties who fall for it, and with a machete, it seems that it can only be attributed to Cult. There is no lower limit for all kinds of bad tastes. Take this episode of "Machete Killing," which just led a border mob anti-government revolution in the previous episode, but this episode was immediately summoned by the President of the United States to save the world. What's more ridiculous is that it's a private life. How does the president played by the licentious Charlie Sheen look like a former actor, so there is no serious American theme and artificial personal heroism here. The movie is a real-life Bonnie Rabbit cartoon, but Bonnie Rabbit likes to tease the hunter Mr. Aifa with all kinds of nonsensical and bloodless pranks, and "Machete Killing" filmed the bloody side of these pranks.
At the beginning of the movie, the "Star Wars" series was spoofed, and by the way, Xiao Li and Justin Bieber both lay down their guns. This third episode of the pseudo-trailer can be said to be the best part of the whole movie, and then the whole movie. It was plunged into complete chaos. Compared with the first episode, the story of the second episode has gone beyond the so-called spoofs and jokes in the narrative of the B-level film. La Fengluo completely replaced the story with evil taste, but the fragmentation and naivety of the movie structure made it highlight the appeal of style. It also ended in failure. It is difficult to describe the story of "Machete Killing". Here is a latent Latin agent who is constantly split between the leader of the Resistance and the war lunatic, and the president of the United States who has three sisters who slept and legalized marijuana cultivation. There are prostitutes who work part-time as mercenaries, bounty killers who don’t know a few fake faces, and careerists who are keen on cloning the army and space roaming. The movie begins in the conflict between Scimitar and these people. And the end, there is no order and logic at all. There is also a section that uses the passionate play of Dennett Joe and Aimee Bershid to mock 3D technology. This section seems to be joyful, but it makes the whole film even more inconsistent. Although I laughed from start to finish when I watched the movie with my friends, it was more because of the deliberate ugliness of "Machete Killing", rather than the wit of lowering the price like the previous episode or even "Xing Fang".
La Fengluo retains most of the cast of "Machete", but it is not flattering. Jessica Alba’s soy sauce repeats Banderas’ flashbacks about the murder of his wife in "Once Upon a Time in Mexico", but this time, Daniel Tejo is kneeling next to the beauty, only trembling with anger. The female man Michelle Rodriguez is still tough this time, but at the end she again looks in line with Uncle Depp in "Once Upon a Time in Mexico", her eyes are fully governed, and her combat power rises instead of falling, and she silently accepts. The most intolerable thing is Tom Savigny, who had a cool pop performance in the last movie. The awesome killer who used to bloodbath the church turned out to be a wretched outcrop in this episode. The contrast of one hundred and eighty degrees is revealed. Given the lack of cherishment and profligacy of the characters by La Fengluo, this kind of creative attitude must be the main reason for the fiasco of "Machete Killing". As for the newly added Lady GaGa, Banderas and Gooding who came to help the scene, these three big cards actually played a role. The taste of "forced cameo to attract eyeballs" is too strong, but fortunately the performance of the three is very pleasing. , Especially GaGa, did not expect to be so naughty. As a fan of Mel Gibson, this time can only be said to be unsatisfactory. This villain's sense of existence is not as strong as the cloned fighter he made. Gibson is not Siegel, so this episode of Katana vs. Machete is even more enjoyable. Great discount, but the ending is a bright spot. I always feel that the previous pseudo-trailers of "Star Wars" are still not exhausted. It turned out to be true. In the end, Mel Gibson became a Mexican-style Darth Vader, and Michelle Rodriguez was like " Harrison Ford in "The Empire Strikes Back" also turned into human amber and was taken to space to pave the way for the third episode of life and death. However, after having a clear concept and idea of the trilogy, he created "Machete "Killing", everything seems to be in a hurry, like a trailer made in a hurry for "Space Reopening", all the characters and plots give people a sense of rush. It can be said that this time the most appropriate setting with the overall tone of the film, in my opinion, are only Uncle Charlie Sheen and GaGa sister and the fake trailer.
La Fengluo’s works in recent years have not been good either in the box office or in the word of mouth. Watching her good friend Quentin gradually flourish, I don’t know how I feel. Here, I still hope the stupidity in "Machete Killing" And casual are all deliberately performed because of its parody of the B-level film. Don't make mistakes and mistakes because of lack of skills. At least don't see them in "Sin City 2" next year. .
