Re: Machete Kills Pretty bad, and not in the fun way unfortunately. The movie doesn't have the ridiculousness it needs throughout to make it worthwhile. The best parts were the beginning/end dealing with the space stuff. Too bad that probably won't happen!

Re: Machete Kills Mel Gibson is awesome. The rest of the movie is not.

Re: Machete Kills Definitely disappointing when compared to the first. It was just very flat outside of a couple standout Machete kills. Though I really want Machete Kills Again in Space to happen

Machete Kills
The most undeserving sequel ever made is, to no surprise, shit. The good; Mel Gibson, Cuba Gooding Jr., Walt Goggins and Charlie Sheen. The bad; Amber Heard and Lady Gaga (they deserve a special mention) and literally everything else. The joke of making a retro 70s B-movie has been long warn out. It seems that Robert Rodriguez will never regain his From Dusk Till Dawn and Desperado days. I suppose this film, if nothing else, has left it open for Machete Kills Again...in Space.

Re: Machete Kills I'm one of the few people who saw it on the big screen. I enjoyed it.

Re: Machete Kills Riggs wrote: How much screentime has Gibson? You don't see him for the first 50 minutes. The film is 1 hour and 47 minutes long. Then after that, he's in it quite a bit, but in total I would say around 15-20 minutes of actual screen time. The second half of the movie is mainly all Gibson, though. _________________STOP UIGHUR GENOCIDE IN XINJIANG

Re: Machete Kills Thanks. I may be just fast-forwarding to Gibson's scenes.
