"Machete": Mexican Movie Declares War on AZ

[Don]

Amazing. Movie about Mexican illegal who is hired by Mexicans to murder US patriot (Robert De Niro) who advocates against illegal immigration. Violent and disgusting. See the trailer. It's sympathetic to the Mexicans and denigrates Americans. Remember Cheech Marin...the latino pothead from the 70's? Well he's in it. I guess they dried him out long enough to memorize some lines and help kill dirty rotten gringos... for him, a career boost from getting high on weed.

The civil war is coming. This may be the 21st Century Uncle Tom's Cabin, the book credited by A. Lincoln with starting the Civil War.

Wow, I just watched it. This is really turning out to be a war. Everyone can now understand why Americans have been stocking up on guns. This film basically declares war on Arizona. The leftist Hollywood gang may have picked the wrong side.

I have said from the beginning of this madness that Americans are seen world wide as soft fools. We are now proving it to be true.

Machete is an upcoming action film, directed by Robert Rodriguez and Ethan Maniquis. The film will star Danny Trejo in his first lead role as the title character.

The film also stars Michelle Rodriguez, Cheech Marin, Lindsay Lohan, Don Johnson, Jessica Alba, Steven Seagal, Robert DeNiro, Jeff Fahey, and Cheryl Chin. The film is an expansion of a fake trailer Rodriguez directed for the 2007 film Grindhouse and centers around the character of Machete Cortez, who previously appeared as the uncle of the protagonists in the Spy Kids films. Filmed in autumn 2009, the film will be released in the United States on September 3, 2010[2] by 20th Century Fox.[3]

he film focuses on Machete (Trejo), a renegade former "Mexican Federale". After a shakedown with a druglord (Seagal), Machete roams the towns and streets of Texas looking to do yard work in exchange for money. Michael Benz (Fahey), a local businessman and spin doctor, explains to Machete that McLaughlin (De Niro), a corrupt senator, is sending hundreds of illegal immigrants out of the country. In order to stop this, Benz offers Machete $150,000 to kill McLaughlin. Machete accepts the murder contract. As Machete attempts to assassinate McLaughlin during a rally, he is double-crossed and one of Benz's henchmen shoots him. It is revealed that Benz orchestrated the entire attempted assassination as part of a false flag operation to gain public support for McLaughlin's harsh anti-immigration laws. By setting up Machete as the patsy, the conspirators make it appear that an outlaw illegal Mexican immigrant has tried to assassinate the senator.

A wounded Machete is taken to a hospital to be treated for wounds, and escapes from the guards before he can be arrested. Agent Sartana (Alba), a persistent U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent, is sent by her superior, Lt. Stillman (Johnson), to go find and capture the injured Machete. Machete, with the help of Luz (Rodriguez), a saucy taco slinger, recruits Padre Benecio del Toro (Marin), Machete's "holy" brother. To take revenge on Benz, Machete kidnaps Benz's wife and his daughter, April (Lohan), who has a penchant for guns. After encountering Machete, Sartana begins to have a special interest in the blade slinger. Machete rallies a group of illegal immigrants together, and begins to hunt the people who double crossed him. [4]

I love Robert Rodriguez's movies, especially El Mariachi and Desperado, but this is a definite WON'T see for me.
