The relentless, incessant, persistent, insane, graphic violence throughout Machete, right up to the hari-cari scene that serves as the end of the flick won’t cause Machete to come off at the top of the box office, even with its pertinent political poignancy and variegated casting. If you aspire to see Lindsay Lohan in a threesome or Cheech Marin nailed to the cross in explicit gruesomeness, this might be for you. Otherwise, if you are squeamish at all, avoid this movie. If either “Crank” or the “Saw” series are your idea of a good movie, this could be right up your alley, as such Machete is an extremely violent action thriller with a current affairs political agenda as topic.
| Must be seen on big screen? | No | save your money for the rental |
| wait for DVD or rental? | No | many will not enjoy the persistent gory violence |
| OK for your elementary school child? | Never | graphic violence |
| OK for your child 14 or under? | Zero chance | graphic executions |
| OK for Family movie night? | nope | makes Texas Chainsaw Massacre look like a Disney flick |
| Comments | in al fairness story moves along | extensive violence will turn most away |
