Once Upon a Time in Mexico
Just got back from the flick...Robert Rodriguez has got to be some kind of wacko. Loved Johnny Depp's character's silly t-shirts and general odd attire--and he had the best lines.
I saw 'Desperado' but never saw 'El Mariachi'. Seeing 'Desperado' first didn't really help me understand this movie any better. I admit, I was lost at least 25% of the time. ; )
I forgot how hot Antonio Banderas is... O.o ...especially with long hair. Graceful too. I guess the hook-up with Melanie Griffith kinda threw me. ; )
I liked 'Desperado' a lot more...but this movie was a lot of fun on a Saturday afternoon with my fella--a movie we both could enjoy.

Mik totally cracked me up when he said Johnny Depp's character looked like The Crow, after he had the unfortunate removal of his eyeballs. Ick, but strangely true. ; )
My favorite part was at the start, when $10k was given over in a 'Clash of the Titans' lunchbox, rather than a briefcase. LMAO
Saw a preview for 'Master and Commander--The Far Side of the World'. Damn that movie looks good. No surprise coming from a 'Horatio Hornblower' zealot. This movie may be James D'Arcy's big break--he was all over the preview. It does my Obscure-British-Actor-lovin' heart good, to see his gorgeous face on the big screen. *drools over tall-ships and men in u-nee-form*
This started out as a reply to sandelwood, but it got so long I decided to update my own neglected journal, rather than muddy up hers with my musings. ; )
