Machete

What a movie! Oh my god, what a movie. From the first second to the last, this has to be the most incredibly fun movie of the year. This is definitely 2010's answer to the ridiculous fun of last year's Drag Me to Hell. I could watch movies like this everyday for the rest of my life.

Jim and Mooney raved about it but for some reason, I couldn't or wouldn't believe them that this movie was as good as they said. Jim even sent me a text right after the movie saying that Machete was awesome!!! I think this was his sly joke about how Machete don't text. Trust me, see this movie so you know what I'm talking about.

Every splattered head, every Danny Trejo utterance, every explosion, every Don Johnson or Steven Seagal or Robert De Niro or Cheech Marin appearance just added to the luster. Every Michelle Rodriguez badass move, Lindsay Lohan vacant stare, or Jessica Alba moment was perfect. Everything about this movie was great.

I didn't love Grindhouse but the fake trailer from it ended up producing this brilliance.

I can't wait for Machete 2!!
