Looks good, exactly what one can hope for in one's Machete movie: over the top characters (including tough dames in skimpy outfits), over the top action and over the top guns and knifes (and the occasional machete no doubt). Judging from this trailer, the plot has me confused a bit though, in terms of continuity with the previous film. How come Machete is suddenly working for the US government? After all, he's a Mexican ex-federale who previously got caught up in an assassination attempt - a set-up, sure, but still - on a US senator and afterwards rallied illegal Mexican immigrants to stage a revolt of sorts against democratically elected government officials. That's not the sort of person you're likely to see on the side of the American president. However, if I was the American president, I wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of any conflict Machete is involved in... I'm sure director Robert Rodriguez will come up with a logical narrative string of events explaining this situation adequately. Say what you will about the wacky contents of many of his films, in terms of story structure they're pretty solid. Except for that intentionally omitted reel in Planet Terror, but that's another story entirely.
Machete doesn't text, Machete doesn't tweet: Machete kills! Personally I can't wait for this flick to arrive in theatres. Hopefully the Dutch distributor will have his release date sorted out pretty soon, as we're still unsure when this sequel is supposed to be available for viewing in the Netherlands. If not Machete, the suspense kills.
