A Christian Movie Review of "Machete"

[LynneSin]

You read this and ask yourself this - did someone from this website actually go see the movie or did they just watch the trailer and write it from there.

There’s nothing sexy about the nudity and sex in MACHETE, which are extreme. Also, after the first couple minutes of violence, most people will become extremely desensitized. That said, thousands of studies show there are susceptible people such as Ted Bundy and Al Gore enamored, eco-terrorist James Jay Lee who tried to blow up the Discovery Channel in September 2010. So, some illegal immigrant may decide that every American is evil, America is corrupt and that it’s his or her job to start the revolution.


(Lynne Note: Gotta love how they lump Al Gore with a serial killer and that nut job from the Discovery Channel Hostage thing)

1. "reverse racism rationalized."

lulz

2. Sample around this clown's website

You get the distinct impression that he pores over every instance of "extreme nudity" or other "evil, rotten, disgusting" happenings on a frame-by-frame basis. And I don't think you'd be wrong.

As for his relentless, exhaustive catalog of every last little plot development that he finds objectionable, you have to wonder (a) what he thinks about quite a bit of the Bible (which features nudity, incest, lying, cheating, blackmail, betrayal, manipulation, corruption, greed, envy, and revenge); and (b) what sort of story in which absolutely nothing objectionable happens would pass muster for him.

6. I remember when "The Iron Giant" came out

and I found one of those "Christain Movie Review" sites. They were upset with the movie for the vulgarity in it. I was perplexed. What vulgarity?! Seems like the use of the word "damn" and I think close to the end when Mansley says "Screw our country! I WANT TO LIVE!" were "objectionable".

I thought it was a great movie for all ages, but I guess some need their family movies to be "squeaky clean".

10. Stupid idiots. We showed "The Iron Giant" at my church a couple years ago for family movie night.

The kids loved it, and the parents and other adults loved the message.

but then, I'm at a church that isn't addicted to fear and hate, so it's not surprising.

3. Wow!

Sounds like my kind of movie!

[ismnotwasm]

4. I can hardly wait to see it

What's that old western? God Forgives, I Don't? In the original 'fake' trailer in Grindhouse, the priest character said something like that, only I think the word was mercy.

5. Sounds great. I hope it lives up to the review.

"Evil, rotten, disgusting, humanist, nihilistic, Communist...."

Waitaminute. Which one of these words doesn't belong here? Humanist? Really? That belongs in the same sentence as "disgusting" and "nihilistic?"

"...anti-American, and anti-capitalist content..."

Well, maybe, but what does that have to do with Christianity? Whatever else Christianity is, it is not capitalistic.

[LynneSin]

7. Christianity is, it is not capitalistic.....

:rofl:

Try telling that to the likes of folks like Benny Hine, Pat Robertson and other christians leeches.

8. Everybody knows Jesus didn't heal the lepers until *after* they paid him. n/t

9. From The Review, Sounds Like My Type of Movie

I love these Christian reviews. They always tell you the best movies for sex and violence.

11. I think this reviewer just fucked with the wrong Mexican
