It was alright... but they ruined Johnny Depp's character.
After he got his eyes gouged out, everything his character did was pointless. "even though i just had a drill shoved into my eye sockets, im going to wander around town and try to find 2 random goons to shoot." then he dies. whoop-dee-doo.

you sure you searched? several came up just by searching for "mexico"
in once upon a time in mexico there were a few ok shots, but mostly the visuals were horrible. it looked like cheap dv half the time, and even when it didn't, it still didnt look quite right. it looked like giant video tv up there, and thats jarring, it takes any dramatic effect out of the scene since its like watching a tv sitcom show instead of a movie. makes everything come off cheesy and unprofessional.
the director needs to get b*tch slapped for being sony's digital camrea whore. wonder how much money is involved with that decision.
if your going to make a movie devoid of substance and relies on its beauty, why would you even mess with the one aspect you think you'd have going for you? good lord.
not to mention the acting....they stuck some male britney singer in for kicks or something, and the story is a mess.
the gun fights? mostly badly directed. random boom boom.
nothing worked.
well salma is hot! but thats not enough, she's not in most of the scenes anyhow. alison loman is hot too, she's 22 so don't think i'm pervy
i do admit the trailer looked amazing, but i guess that goes to show, can't judge a movie by the trailer. i knew it should have some style from the trailer, so i'd be happy with loads of style even if the story was only ok. but even on that front it didn't deliver. all the best bits were definetly in the trailer.
i also saw match stick men. now that was impressive. makes once upon a time in mexico look like a dog.

*spoiler*
didnt he die at the end...? he's on the ground after shooting those 2 goons, then the girl comes out, he shoots her, then he collapses.
either he's dead or he can live without breathing :/

Uhm in the ending of the movie that I saw, Johnny Depp lived. After he killed Eva Mendes he laid there unconscience. At the end of the movie they show JD up against the wall talking to the boy that guided him around. He was talking to the retired FBI agent at the end. I could have sworn that happend.
