What did you think?: MACHETE

machete-wdyt-header

Now that you have seen it, what did you think of Machete? Was the film as good as its faux trailer for Grindhouse? Did the film feel stretched out from the trailer? Was this the last of the summer popcorn films or is it just popcorn? Did the film have the authentic Grindhouse feel? Was the violence over the top or just what you were looking for? Since one of the film’s key selling points is violence, I can’t imagine people would have a problem with it. Though Machete is mimicking a Grindhouse film, was the acting chessy or was it at the level you would find in a normal film? Leave your thoughts below.
