They believed him to be a simple worker, the perfect scapegoat to take the blame for a political murder. Little did they know it was Machete, a prominent ex-federal agent, a legend…
Machete, left for dead after a confrontation with the powerful Mexican drug lord Torres, takes refuge in Texas, where he tries to forget the past. The senator’s murder and frame-up make him the most wanted man in the country.
This time, Machete is determined to free himself from these charges and denounce the rampant and widespread corruption…
In Origins of the Machete, a schoolboy prank from the duo Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino: the fake trailer that accompanied the double program Grindhouse Boulevard of Death and Planet Terror.
With a quivering mustache and long hair blowing in the wind, Danny Trejo almost recreated the murderous character seen in Desperado, chasing Antonio Banderas… but this time on the right side of the fence.
Faced with collective enthusiasm, the character became the subject of a 2010 film. Voluntarily agreeing to leave his brain in the dressing room, Machete delights the lovers.
Jaw-clinged and angrier than ever, Danny Trejo takes down (and above all cuts down!) all the rotten and evil gringos in a very funny action movie that’s obviously violent (you still have to earn his nickname) and irreverent.
There is no cheating on the goods. And what’s more, what an actor! Judge for yourself: Robert De Niro as a politician as never as ever, Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodriguez, Lindsay Lohan as an assassin, the unspeakable Cheech Marin as a priest who is better with a gun than a confessional, not to forget Steven Seagal, who Playing. Katana.
Machete to watch (or rewatch!) on Prime Video.
