Damn, I can't believe that. I would have thought mid 30s at best. How time flies.

Anyway, for those of you who've seen Once Upon A Time In Mexico: Is it worth paying 8 bucks to go see? My brother and I were thinking about going to it tonight, or maybe waiting till my mom comes down on Friday and going to it then.

1. Yes he is

and a very FINE 40 years old at that. Can't wait to see the movie.

[Mel]

2. Wait for Mom

you know she wants to see Johnny! :evilgrin:

[supernova]

3. Yes, 40 looks grrrreat on Johnny

:pant: :pant: Ohhh Baby! Johnny just rocks my world! He's aging like a fine wine.

Yes, OUATIM is wonderful fun! I saw it twice this weekend. If you liked the two previous Mariachi films, then you'll like this one. Beautiful cinamatography. And do try to see it in a digital theatre, otherwise the picture quality isn't the same.

4. ...and so it goes.

This morning I, myself, beat my own personal best record for number of consecutive days on the planet.

6. Congratulations Trof!

Do you happen to be Johnny's twin? LOL!

5. I couldn't resist

7. I didn't like the movie

Don't waste your money. It's nowhere near as good as Desperado was... hell, I saw "How To Loose a Guy in 10 Days" last night and I thought THAT was better than Once Upon A Time In Mexico.

And if you really like Johnny Depp you won't like watching him get his eyes shredded in the movie.

[supernova]

8. Yes, that did make me wince - SPOILERS! above and below

but it is just a movie. It's not like he really got his beautiful hazel eyes gouged out.

It's just a cartoon with live actors, nothing more, nothing less. I didn't expect L'Aneé Dernièr à Marianbad -- prolly forget an accent or two.

And the soundtrack is awesome!

[AlabamaDem]

10. what really grossed me out was...

that he didn't just get them gouged out, they were shredded with that tool... I wasn't really looking at the screen at that moment but I'm pretty sure that happened - LOL. Then when he took off the sun glasses - POOR JOHNNY!!

oh and sorry for the spoiler guys, it's not anything major though.

14. Have you seen El Marichi?

does it stay in theme with the other two? I've liked them all.

[supernova]

16. Yes, it's in keeping

with the original. Just a bigger budget, better SFX, and a f**ing awesome soundtrack! Don't expect to be able to keep up with the plot. Just know that everybody, and I DO mean EVERYBODY, is on the make.

The escape scene down the side of the building with Antionio and Salma is extremely well done.

The whole shooting in digital thing intrigues me.

[Raenelle]

20. You're right about the plot being very complex, but I have a question

Was the Ruben Blades character (the FBI guy) on the take, too? I didn't get that.

[supernova]

25. Ruben

is out for revenge. Barillo had his FBI partner tortured and killed. Sands plays on his grief to get him going.

[Raenelle]

19. The sound trace really was awesome, and written by the same guy

who wrote, directed and produced it.

[supernova]

24. Johnny and Antonio

wrote music for their characters. Salma sings the song over the end credits. She has a lovely voice! I hope she sings more. I've become a big Salma fan since I watched Frida.

[LynneSin]

17. Geez, what a change from this

[ikojo]

28. Johnny Depp

Hot in the 80s and hot now!!!

:thumbsup:

[JackSwift]

9. I enjoyed it but

it was disjointed in plot and not quite believable, very cartoonish. But lots of bang, bang, shoot, shoot.

[AlabamaDem]

11. I agree ^^^

the plot was terrible.

[supernova]

12. Johnny and Cheech Marin

provided most of the much needed humor.

[AlabamaDem]

13. * * *SPOILER ALERT AGAIN* * *

true... but Johnny killed Cheech! Damn him!

[supernova]

15. SNARF - **SPOILER**

Cheech: You wouldn't kill me over a measly $10,000 now would you? (Exits the bar)

Johnnny: (under his breath) Yes, I would!

ROFL!!

CLASH OF THE TITANS!!!

edit: Dammit! I always misspell ROFL!! x(

[Raenelle]

18. I enjoyed it.

Of course, Depp gave his usual brilliant, always fascinating and interesting performance.

But I also enjoyed Antonio a lot. Yeah, it's his looks. But he doesn't do anything to hurt the role, in fact he helps it a lot with his gracefulness, and damn, he's the best looking guy around. I think he's sort of the male equivalent of Marilyn Monroe. You can't take your eyes off him because he is just so attractive.

Plus the movie is very sympathetic to Mexico, and I live 15 miles from the border and saw the movie with people who definitely didn't need the English translation written in for them. That was fun.

Just a good, fun, interesting movie. I read some stuff about a political subtext, but it didn't leap out at me. Just a sprawling adventure, with the best actor of our time and the most outstanding hunk of our time.

[supernova]

23. Eh, Antonio's OK

I don't know what Antonio's like in Nine on Broadway, but I found him at his most interesting in the Almodovar movies.

It's Johnny I can't keep my eyes off of! LOL! He's just way too damn interesting - the looks, characters, the delivery. Hotness itself!

[Mari333]

21. 40 is a mere youth

when you are 52...that makes me old enough to be Depps MOTHER if I gave birth at 12....creepy!

[SiouxJ]

22. 40 NEVER looked so good!

baby!

[supernova]

26. Hey, was saving this but what the hell

Surely, this guy has got to know what effect he has on our fair sex. The next sound you hear will be me hitting the floor! :fans self:

[Raenelle]

27. Well, I'm going to be walking on my tongue for a few hours.

n/t

[SiouxJ]

29. OH . . . MY . . ..

GAWD! Great shot! He has my ideal body type for a guy. Not too many muscles.

Thank you for distracting me from my work ;-)

[supernova]

30. I do what I can SiouxJ

LOL! ;-)

Both pics are in this weeks Entertainment Weekly. That last one, the scan doesn't do it justice! Hmmmmmm, I love low rise jeans and short Tees....... naughty, naughty thoughts......
