Machete

Only seconds into the film and heads are literally flying in this appropriately titled movie. A film in the vain of the Good, The Bad and The Ugly era stars the baddest, ugliest former federale seeking justice with his machete against a US senator and a US/Mexican cartel of dope smugglers. Some pretty big names in this ridculous but fun to see movie that definitely should set back Mexican US relations on immigration. 2 bananas

The American

George Clooney in the role of a bad guy. An assassin who works for some mystery outfit finds himself being hunted in this dark and slow moving drama. Beautifully filmed in Italy with two beautiful lady friends can't help George save this film from the dumpster. 1 1/2 bananas.

The Takers

Pretty good crime drama. Group of guys pull off huge heists but time catches up to them as well as the russian mob, and police. At times a little to much going on but enjoyable still. See it for the action. Great shoot out at the end. 2 1/2 bananas
