Political rhetoric frequently does not fill the need like a tool that satire frequently will. When that satire is razor-sharp, even hot-button matters like immigrating can’t arise uncut. ”Machete” got some film reviews that show the Robert Rodriguez “Mexploitation” gore fest showing that even though satire isn’t that great, it certainly did a lot with immigration. ”Machete” is considered to be a good video. It continues on ideas via the whole movie.
Reviews for “Machete” say film really close to edge
Satire in “Machete” is what puts Rodriguez on such a thin line to walk. Intended to be a send-up of 1970s midnight movie genres in much the exact same way that the Quentin Tarantino-Robert Rodriguez co-production “Grindhouse” did in 2007, “Machete” tells the story of a Mexican federale (Danny Trejo) in search of revenge. Drug lord Torrez is played by Steven Seagal who is himself as part of the parody when Machete loses his family to the drug lord agents. Machete kills numerous integrated authorities, politicians including Robert De Niro and even a drug mile network that is exactly like the ones made in U.S. Mexico today. There also are Cheech Marin, Lindsay Lohan, Michelle Rodriguez, Don Johnson and Jessica Alba there too. ”Machete” is not always on a thin line when it comes to satire, says the Denver Post. The jokes are interesting. Some are “too cool for school” more than anything else. But perhaps Rodriguez will have time to sharpen things up for the prepared sequels.
Just wrong to have immigration satire, says Screenrant
Screenrant thinks that the scene in “Machete” with an illegal border crossing is too much. A man and his really pregnant wife are stopped during their attempted crossing by a group of uniformed vigilantes (with Don Johnson and Robert De Niro at the head of the column). De Niro plays a cruel U.S. Senator. He really shoots the pregnant woman before saying the man, “Welcome to America,” and then shoots before shooting him. This is entirely too clear to be effective satire, but in the bloody scheme of things, it’s all part of the fun for Rodriguez.
Bloody fun involved
“Machete” isn’t about acting or story, however the blood fever of intense carnage. Focus too much on the connecting segments and you’ll be bored, says Screenrant. As outlined by Entertainment Weekly, the video does pretty well with all the blood. Without it, the movie would be a schlock really.
