Machete: worse piece of racist/border propaganda I have ever seen

It wasn't more than thirty minutes into this film and I had enough of this garbage. I couldn't believe this film was so racist against whites and was an outright piece of junk that was meant to cause a race war. All whites in the film were murderers and racists. Whites were portrayed as murderers who murder poor illegal immigrants and catholic priest and children. Machete was portrayed as a violent Christ like figure who the poor immigrants prayed to for safety as he killed every white American devil who was in the film. This crap is garbage and it is outright propaganda to make anyone who wants accountability for illegal immigration to look like a racist murderer. My advice don't support this garbage by buying a ticket. This was no comical satire film with violence it was a psy-ops propaganda film. I don't think I will ever go watch another Robert Rodriguez film again after seeing this disgusting film.

You're probably right. I haven't seen it yet, but filmmakers and actors somehow feel obligated to push their version of truth on us. I'm totally used to it by now and I don't really let it make or break my movie-watching decision. Usually. I reconcile it by reminding myself how utterly clueless most of these "Hollywood" types are when it comes to politics or even gauging the social temperature. They're always well off the mark. They're always finding a way to induce revolution. They glorify mass murderers because they believe, I guess, a system where some people are poor and some people are discriminated against is infinitely worse than a system where everyone is poor and everyone is basically discriminated against and thought unimportant if they're not part of the controlling power.

I rarely go to movies anymore because they get worse with time. The race card is being called all the time. I am tired of it. Whites are the minority, but even whites don't know it.

I rarely go to the movies. At nine dollars a person it just is way out of my budget...I will tell others about this one though. It did not look like that on the marque. It is a shame that we cannot make a movie making us look cool...But that is not allowed is it...
