I watched Once Upon a Time in Mexico yesterday. It was the first time I had seen it since it originally came out in 2003. I remember at the time that I thought the movie was pretty awesome, like in a 7.5/10 kind of way. But rewatching it yesterday, it was definitely a lowered 6/10. It was still good, but not as good as I recalled. And maybe I just forgot, but the Mariachi seems hardly the main character even though he's central to the trilogy. This entry seemed more like Johnny Depp's character's movie. The movie spends more time with the side characters than they do with Mariachi. It made the whole story feel disjointed.
