Once upon a time in Mexico
At first, glance, this movie seems like an updated version of Desperado. That would be true, except for one big difference:
this movie has Johnny Depp.
Depp delivers another stellar performance (the previous one i'm referring to being from Pirates of the Caribbean) that carries the movie along not only because it is his part in the movie, but because also in the sense that his acting keeps the movie fresh and charming. His humor is evident, and what humor it is.
If you want one good reason to see the movie, I say see it for Depp.
