Machete (Danny Trejo) is terug! Hij wordt ditmaal ingehuurd door de Amerikaanse president (Charlie Sheen) voor een onmogelijke missie. Machete moet kartelleider Mendez the Madman (Demián Bichir) uitschakelen, die een raket op Amerika wil afvuren. Nadat Machete zich een weg door Mexico heen vecht en eindelijk bij zijn doelwit aankomt, blijkt dat de raket is gekoppeld aan het hart van Mendez. De raket kan alleen uitgeschakeld worden door wapenhandelaar Luther Voz (Mel Gibson), die op zijn beurt met een wapen in de ruimte plannen heeft om een wereldwijde oorlog te ontketenen.

Terribly stupid, but (again) unfortunately not in a funny way. That makes it even worse than the first film, which made me laugh a few times. This time all the bonus points were taken care of by Mel Gibson (Star Wars fan), but otherwise it’s a really terrible boring mess. And the third installment will most likely be the same thing, but with light machetes, clones... etc. Nevermind.

This is no longer grindhouse, this is Asylum :-( The first part three years ago was a perfect homage to American trashy movies from the 1970s and I had it in my TOP 10 of that year. But this is something else. Without any restraint, reason or knowledge of what a healthy dose is, so basically unwatchable. If a Mega Piranha fell from the sky and Danny Trejo bit its head off, nobody would be surprised. Too much Rodriguez.

Machete is back and making fun of old Bond movies. The motivation of the main protagonist is basically the same as in the first movie, the same goes for the locations. Even Danny Trejo is the same. Rodriguez follows loosely on the first movie and prepares the ground for the grand finale that we see at the end. The array of stars is colorful, but the one that stands out the most is the schizo dictator Demián Bichir who is responsible for most of the twists in the movie. Mel Gibson rather strangely underplays his role of the megalomaniac bad guy and Carlos Estevez as President Rathcock goes down in history as one of the most capable presidents of the silver screen. The action keeps on coming, even though in places it’s a bit repetitive, but mainly it has the unmistakable atmosphere of total mayhem. Bring on the part three!

This was a very short and dull machete. Compared to the first film, which looks like a model Machete film compared to the second film, this piece is a pretty weak brew. It lacks a proper final showdown, where the enemy would be mowed down with a hail of bullets, and it also lacks a proper pool shot, where Machete would show what a tough guy he really is when he manages to simultaneously take out the wife and daughter of his enemy. Mačeta simply didn't take enough risks here. The slaughter is decent, but it just doesn't cut it for a proper combo. I give it three stars out of pure sympathy for Machete... and I hope that when he's in space, everyone will crap themselves. Including journalists and all sorts of scribblers who won't understand a single scene and will send the conclusion of this trilogy to the flowers with the claim that the screenwriter collapsed in agony while writing the script for the last part.

The first film was a nice parody, full of humor and irony, it was clear that the people behind it relaxed and enjoyed it. The sequel is more commercial, filled with celebrities without any potential for the given theme (so why recruit "serious actors" for a parody?). I could understand Steven Seagal in the first film, and it was okay, but not Mel Gibson. The female cast is very above average and also the only thing that can be praised. It's a jumble that lacks image, direction, and style.
