Desperado review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 12/12/11
El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) meets Carolina (Salma Hayek). The concept was fresh but the execution at times exaggerated. Some action and coincidental scenes were at time ludicrous that one can't help be baffled. Score, direction were cool and acting decent. Banderas was believable and Hayek supports well, which shows their complimentary aura on screen. Action only picks up when El Mariachi ejects two guns from underneath his sleeves. Desperado is a fun crime flick that doesn't need to be taken seriously.
