I usually don't go in with expectations. Thing about that movie is, I don't find the story line intruiging at all.

Was looking forward to seeing this movie from previews, so I hope it's not that bad.
As for Salma, sounds like she only gets short blurbs in the movie...

she has like 2 lines. she's not in it nearly enough to save it.
edit: i guess i'll elaborate. there's zero character development first of all. to me that pretty much sinks any movie. if you never find out anything about the characters, you can't identify with them and you don't care what happens to them. after about 45 minutes i realized this. and i really didn't care if everybody in the movie was going to live or die or go home and have an iced tea on the porch. i just didn't care. not even with cheech.... well maybe with cheech. but he's not in it nearly long enough to save the movie either. i cannot believe this movie ever got made. but go see it if you want. i'm just saying i didn't like it. oh yeah, and enrique iglesias can't act. at all. like that was a surprise.

I think you are expected to have seen Desperado before you've seen this so you should already know the characters.

i've seen desperado and loved it. i've seen el mariachi and it was all right. but this one was bad. maybe i'll stop saying that now and let other people give opinions though.

Wow, I'm surprised to hear the negative review. This movie has gotten almost universal praise from critics.........and the ones leading the charge are those who loved Desperado
