Ok, I'm not an advocate for violence at all but in the midst of Arizona passing a super racist, anti-immigration law a movie has come at the perfect time to satirize the dysfunction of Arizona and our nation.
Machete, written and directed by Robert Rodriguez, portrays a hit man who was hired to assassinate a racist senator, but who ends up getting sabotaged himself. And this Mexican, who goes by the name of machete (assuming that's his weapon of choice) does not go down without a fight. I know this story has been told time and time again:
1) Anti-hero is happy leading an uneventful life until he gets a deal he cannot refuse
2) That "deal" ends up biting him in the ass and he dies...oh wait no he doesn't!
3) Then, not because he wants to but because he has to, he ends up blowing everyone up that wronged him and some causalities too (but I'm sure he didn't mean to).
I don't know why I love this trailer so much, but watch for yourself and tell me you are not totally titillated. Oh ya, Happy Cinco de Mayo!
