All rights reserved.| Movie Description The no-named Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) tracks down the last Mexican drug-lord "Bucho" with the help of his best friend and a beautiful book store owner (Salma Hayek). In a poetically violent style reminiscent of John Woo and Sam Peckinpah, the Mariachi takes on his entire army of henchmen in a dusty border town as an act of revenge for the murder of his love and his injured musician's hand. Robert Rodriguez's big budget sequel to "El Mariachi." Also starring Cheech Marin (of Cheech and Chong) and Steve Buscemi (RESERVOIR DOGS).

Top Reviews Review created: 07/30/06 by: 2 of 5 people found this review helpful. This movie was brilliant. It seems this role was made with Antonio Banderas in mind. I do not think a better actor could have been chosen for it. He executed it brilliantly. There is a great deal of violence, not that it bothers me, in this movie which can be found offensive by some, but it is intertwined with a nice love story so that it evens out. Definitely worth watching. Review ID: 10000000001455764 Was this review helpful?

His acting as well as how he (really) plays the guitar in this action movie is just suppurb. Then you have Penelopie cruz as well adding to the beauty of this movie. I recommend this movie to all people who like a good shoot 'em up/ romance movie. Review ID: 10000000005180795 Was this review helpful?
