Plot

From Aldamisa Productions: "The second film in the Machete trilogy finds Machete mourning the loss of his beloved Sartana, slain during a run in with the cartels. Machete is recruited by the President of the United States (Charlie Sheen) for a mission which would be impossible for any mortal man. Machete must battle his way through Mexico to take down a cartel leader, Mendez the Madman, who threatens to fire a missile on the US. Machete foils Mendez's plot only to find that the missiles are remote wired to and triggered by the madman’s still beating heart. The only man who can disarm the missile is eccentric billionaire arms dealer, Luther Voz (Mel Gibson), who has hatched a plan of his own to spread war across the planet with a weapon in space. Machete takes on Voz and his army in order to dismantle his master plan for global anarchy".

Didn't the first one bomb?  I never understood how they make sequels to movies that didn't do well, like we'd remember the first one differently because there was a sequel. That being said, I did see the first one and it was decent.

looking forward to seeing this despite the first one falling a bit flat.

It actually did 44 million and cost around 11 to make. I'm not sure if DVD and hame rental sales are included in that, but it did well.

I'm excited about Mel Gibson being in it, say what you will, the man can still act his ass off. He was great in Get the Gringo, it felt like a more comedic extension of Payback.
