'Bless me, father,' mutters Antonio Banderas, 'for I have just killed quite a few men.' For all those who bemoan the passing of the spaghetti Western, here's a straggler from the Nineties. Not so much a fistful of dollars, here, though, as a fistful of pesetas, with swarthily sweating Banderas and his guitar case full of guns demolishing an entire town in the cause of revenge Down Mexico Way. Behind every bar lurks a menacing face: verily this must be the most lawless town in all Meh-ico. They're all cannon fodder, though, for the whirling, plunging, twisting Banderas, whose real mission is to gun down the local drug lord. Only pausing to bed the sultry bookseller (stunning Salma Hayek) and befriend the local street urchin, Banderas mows down baddies by the dozen before calling in a couple of similarly inclined friends, which is only to show off guitar cases that fire rockets, since it's obvious Banderas can take on the whole town by himself.
