4/10
Not what I was expecting
9 January 2005
Well...I saw all three over two nights. El Mariachi was incredible, and Desperado was an excellent continuation of the first. Once Upon a Time in Mexico, however, seemed to fall away from the original feel of the the first two. As a stand-alone action flick, it was alright...it has your car chases, explosions, love-ish story, and gunfights to make anyone sit up and pay attention.

But, honestly...to use the cliché, I'd have to split my rating thusly: If you watched the first two, and loved the story, I'd give it 2 out of 5 stars.

If you're expecting three sex-icons with lots of guns and stuff blowing up, 3 out of 5.

Overall...great popcorn movie.
