Guns, guns, guns! And a few explosions as bodies fly through the air and crash into tables and fruit stands. Once Upon a Time in Mexico, like all Robert Rodriguez movies, is all about the kinetic kick of high-velocity action. Johnny Depp, blase and whimsical, plays a CIA agent who's drawn guitar-playing gun-slinger Antonio Banderas (long black hair flopping over his face like the ears of a Labrador puppy) into a ridiculously convoluted plot to overthrow the Mexican government. Along for the ride are a craggy-faced rogue's gallery including Willem Dafoe, Mickey Rourke, Danny Trejo, Ruben Blades, and (to balance things out) the smooth, tantalizing complexions of Eva Mendes and Salma Hayek. For sheer trashy fun, Once Upon a Time in Mexico is a step down from its predecessor, Desperado--but Desperado set the bar pretty high. For coherent storytelling, look elsewhere, but for action razzle-dazzle, this is your movie. --Bret Fetzer

 Better than Desperado, worse than El Mariachi December 14, 2009
One-Line Film Reviews (Easton, MD)
The Bottom Line:
Featuring one of those Jack Sparrow like performances by Johnny Depp that elevates a mediocre film into something worth recommending, Once Upon a Time in Mexico is not going to be accused of being a great film but it's fun and full of enough winning moments to make the film likable; I certainly don't think I came out of Robert Rodriguez's film having learned anything, but I had a pleasant 100 minutes and sometimes that's enough.
3/4

Dino Quintanilla Jr. (Garland, Tx USA)
Once upon a Time in Mexico is an exciting adventure movie with
Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, and Johnny Depp. However, this movie has a lot vulgar language and violence.

I only bought this movie because Enrique Iglesias was in it. It was a small part. Rumor has it, he didn't like his performance and swore to never do another movie agian. I hope that isn't true.
Other than that, I also liked Antonio Banderas. I am not a big Johnny Depp fan and thought this was too much about him and way over the top. Should have cut out the last few minutes altogether.
