Iron Man Three Review

It's not a superhero movie. It's a Shane Black movie with superheroes in it. And that makes it awesome.

"We didn't cross the border, the border crossed us!"


So says Jessica Alba, right as Arizona goes immigrant crazy. The two aren't exactly a coincidence. You see, Cinco de Mayo - or May 5th to non-Spanish folks - is a national holiday. And it's the day that Robert Rodriguez chose to send Arizona a message. Yes, he's given them (and us) the first trailer for his full-on slice of explosive B-Movie exploitationL Machete. A trailer for a movie based on a trailer? Hell yes.


The plot is pretty much exactly the same as that spoof Grindhouse video: Machete (Danny Trejo) is an ex-Federale who gets hired by some bad people to assassinate a senator (Robert De Niro) keen on kicking out the illegals. But then Machete finds out he's been double crossed. Cue knife-wielding revenge, alongside people like Jessica Alba, Michaelle Rodriguez, Cheech Marin and Steven Seagal. Yes, Steven Seagal.


Directed by Rodriguez's go-to editing guy, Ethan Maniquis, the trailer for this bloodbath is over at Ain't It Cool News. Enjoy - that's a promise.
