The saga of the mythic
guitar-slinging hero, El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas), continues in Robert
Rodriguez's bravura action epic Once Upon a Time in Mexico.
The new adventure is set against a backdrop of revolution, greed and revenge.
Haunted and scarred by tragedy, El Mariachi (Banderas) has retreated into a life
of isolation. He is forced out of hiding when Sands (Johnny Depp), a corrupt CIA
agent, recruits the reclusive hero to sabotage an assassination plot against the
president of Mexico, which has been conceived by the evil cartel kingpin
Barrillo (Willem Dafoe).
But El Mariachi also has his own reasons for returning - blood revenge.
The desperado returns with his two trusted sidekicks Lorenzo (Enrique Iglesias)
and Fideo (Marco Leonardi). And the legend of El Mariachi reaches new heights of
excitement and adventure.
