“Somebody call an ambulance!” might be my favorite new line in a movie. Danny Trejo gets another leading role? Count me in. If you were smart enough to have watched and enjoyed “Machete” then you know Mr. Trejo is more than capable of carrying an action film. In this we have Trejo playing a broken down vet who in his later years finally has enough of the bullshit around him. “Old Man Trejo” beating up bad guys and being a bad ass is what ensues. Off the bat I’m sort off put by it because it again feels like a B-movie action flick thing. I enjoyed “Machete”, but I’d like to see him in something different. I do believe the guy has the chops to do a movie that doesn’t involve violence. He’s obviously awesome at it, but I’d like to see him in something that doesn’t automatically remind me of everything else he’s done and a plot that’s not too different than “Hobo With A Shotgun”. I think we all saw that YouTube video of that old man beating up the asshole on the bus from a few years back. Apparently THAT is what the movie is inspired from. I’ll probably watch this movie down the line, but I feel like I’ve already seen it. I might be better off if I just wait for the “Dentist Boy” movie instead.
