Not gonna be much of a review, just to say that this was a good movie
good story line, good acting,
the thing I liked most about it is the humor and romance in the history of "the Mexican"
if you don't know who/what "the Mexican" is, its worth it to get this movie just to find that out!

The MexicanReview created: 04/29/08

Very well made, witty tale through the Mexican countryside. Brad Pitt is very funny and Julia Roberts is an excellent counterpunch for Pitt. James Gandolfini plays a hitman who befriends Roberts, which makes the story even more interesting. Gene Hackman makes surprise cameo. If you are looking for an amusing, entertaining, fun comedy, then The Mexican is perfect for you

Love This Movie!!Review created: 02/12/08

This has to be one of Brad Pitt's best. Story is easy and fun, his puppy dog looks just make you feel sorry for him the whole time. Julia Roberts is great!! A must have for any collection.

Mythology gone Hollywood3 of 3 people found this review helpful.
The Mexican is not a person, but an antique pistol of mythologic lore. Male lead Brad Pitt has to recover it for the rightful owner but not before his story becomes an epic in its own right. Female lead Julia Roberts has her own tale of intertwined involvement.
The genre is a little hard to classify. Technically it is a sophisticated European dark comedy, where the mafia is portrayed as "keystone kops" and the hero is a benign crook we can love and hate, but rube American audiences don't appreciate that. The movie studio calls it a romantic comedy, but that ignores most of the story line not to mention the well deserved R - violence/language rating. How about action-adventure of the "Shanghai Noon" ilk. Mostly it is what Hollywood used to call the "B-Movie", first line performers in a low budget light duty entertainment package.
It is a long show, 2 Hours and is best viewed at one sitting without commercial breaks.

Beautiful location!2 of 2 people found this review helpful.
Much too long (2 hours 3 minutes). Frustrating at times because Jerry (Brad Pitt) keeps making stupid mistakes. It is worth seeing because Julia Roberts is in it. James Gandolfini has a role totally different from that in The Sopranos and I kept thinking that he would become "Tony-like.". It is worth seeing if you can overlook reckless Jerry!

I did not find this movie very funny or very entertaining. I had seen commercials and thought it would be ,but I was sadly disapointed. I thought that there was an unnecessary amount of foul language and sex. I would not recommend this film to anyone.

Cute, but could Julia be ANYMORE annoying here?Review created: 09/13/06

Julia Roberts' character is supposed to get under your skin. And boy does it. In this movie, Brad Pitt plays her boyfriend, and the two of them have been in couples therapy trying to resolve some of their issues. In the meantime, though, Brad has some shady business to deal with that might involve some serious consequences. Roberts' character doesn't understand, and is completely unaccepting of anything that gets in the way of their relationship. Her annoying nagging and yelling make you wonder what he's doing with her in the first place!
A few minutes into the film, Roberts is kidnapped by those trying to manipulate her boyfriend. Her kidnapper, played by James Gandolfini, is soon won over by her sentimental banter. He empathizes with her, and she with him. It's a great subplot that provides roaring entertainment.
Another subplot is a flashback of an old Mexican town, complete with folk story. The story here is absolutely hysterical and in itself makes the movie worth watching.
Although not the best Pitt or Roberts movie made, it is entertaining and more of a crowd-pleaser. Could be seen by families with older children and/or visiting relatives.
