"All I wanted was to be a mariachi, like my ancestors. But the city I thought would bring me luck brought only a curse. I lost my guitar, my hand, and her. With this injury, I may never play the guitar again. Without her, I have no love. But with the dog and the weapons, I'm prepared for the future."

El Mariachi is an early film directed by now-famous filmmaker Robert Rodriguez. Ini... read more

Because of the severe financial restraints of this picture, the story is forced to be told thru the creativity of all-out action in it's purest, unadulterated form. I think that there should be a law requiring that all big budget action films be shot & directed with as much energy & fun as in this one, before even one cent of the million dollars of special effects is spent.
Cool, vi... read more

"27.3. Miksei Rodriguez tee enää tällaista? Jonkun Macheten kaltaisen puolivillaisen eksploitaatiopastissin rinnalla El Mariachin rosoinen suoraviivaisuus on hyvinkin freesiä seurattavaa. Teoksen pyrkimys viihdyttää ei tunnu lainkaan feikiltä, vaikka huumori ei nyt aina osu maalitauluun. Vastapainoksi löytyy toki varsin mehevää yrmyilyä meksikaanopahisten tapaan sekä ennen kaikkea suurta sydäntä."

"Katsottu 11.1.2013 Robert Rodriguez osoittaa indie-esikoisellaan hallitsevansa elokuvanteon osa-alueet taidokkaasti, vaikka budjetilla saisi hädin tuskin ostettua edes autoa. Mariachi muusikkoa luullaan kostoretkellä olevaksi jengiläiseksi, ja väärinkäsityksen myötä saadaan aikaiseksi paljon konfliktitilanteita. Toiminta on miellyttävän rosoista ja viihdyttävää. Hankala tästä on mitään haukuttavaa löytää, tosin on tässä näkyvillä pieniä viitteitä Rodriguezin naiivista "
