Machete

I just hate it when a movie that markets itself as an action flick decided to try and make a political statement.  If you want to make a movie and make a statement, there's plenty of ways to do it that aren't so in your face.  Machete is decent on the action, plenty of blood and guts as well.  Normally I probably would have enjoyed this, except for it's need to push an agenda.  The whole thing revolves around illegal aliens and drug lords.  The movie made it abundantly clear that illegals are just honest, simple, decent, exploited folks who have done nothing wrong while anyone who wants a secure border is nothing but a redneck racist or has "other" motives.  Guess they're entitled to their opinion, but they won't be getting anymore of my money.
