Review of Desperado (1995) by Luis O — 24 Jul 2012

This will forever have its place among the action greats of the 90s. As it gets its best action sequences from a hail of bullets and bloodbaths, there is a charm and wit to its characters that clearly reflects the confidence of Rodriguez as a director who can churn out a quality film with a minimal budget.

Every moment is as thrilling as the next, and entertainment is never absent in this stylish, cleverly cut together feature that take influence from the gritty 80s action pieces and Spaghetti Westerns to create Rodriguez' unique brand of "Mexploitation films.
