Review of El Mariachi (1993) by Michael H — 18 Apr 2008
Most films spend more on tea bags than this ones entire budget. And while it's not exactly pretty, it shows that the most important parts of a movie are the script, the actors and the director. While far from perfect, this is a concise movie with a clever plot and some unique moments.
Let down at times by dodgy acting (the female lead and Moco towards the end being the biggest culprits) and some iffy shooting/editing probably due to budget constraints, this is a damned fine first film.
