    This movie's a hoot. Robert Rodriguez is the master at taking low budget to great heights. I don't know what it could have been like in the theaters, but imo the real entertainment comes from the bonus features. For me, this holds true for the entire Mexico Trilogy.

    For a low budget movie, its really entertaining! Really gory hence its high age restriction, but since there was not a lot of money spent on special effects it is not really realistic gory stuff. The storyline was interesting and if you like westerns you should like this.

    Robert Rodriguez's directorial debut is a great ride. Kind of a stereotypical story but it's got some great scenes and a tragic ending.

    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

    las actuaciones son malisimas, pero igual es un clasico. una de las peliculas mas rentables de la historia, hace que todos los directores nuevos aspiren a ser un "rodriguez"
