Machete

As you may have recalled the Grindhouse movies back in 2007, there was a fake preview for a movie called "Machete" and it became so popular that they went ahead and made a real movie from it. Like the Grindhouse films it's a throwback to the exploitation of 70's films. Basically they try to make it look fake but since they have a higher budget and better technology it's kind of a catch-22 which is on purpose. Anyways this movie is about a guy named Machete who is a federaly who looses his family to a crime boss. Years later he works illegally in texas and is picked up by a a man who wants him to assassinate the senator for 150,000$ He accepts but is double crossed and so he's out for vengeance against all the people who are trying to put an electric fence across the border and, of course, the men who double crossed him. The film turns into a violent exploitation of awesomeness. That's all that should be said about this film. Grade: B+
