Good western cinco de mayo movies?

[Angel Tarragon]

My dad will be heading out the door tomorrow morning to do some grocery shopping, but will be stopping by the rental store first. We'll be having a Cinco party and watch some flicks. So, what are some good Cinco movies?

El Mariachi
Desperado
Once Upon A Time In Mexico
Evita
Mask of Zorro
Legend of Zorro
From Dusk Till Dawn

Evita?!?!? Um.. she's Argentinian, not Mexican.


I know I'm late, but if Apocalypto was out I would suggest that.. but since it wasn't I'll suggest the above revised list with the following additions:

Viva Zapata
Zapata <--was that movie even released?
Life of Villa <--This actually stars that ratbastard Villa* himself


* My great grandparents were among the pro-colonial ranchers which subject to raids by Villa's brigade.

I only put Evita because of Antonio Banderas

I know I'm late,

I too am late to this party, but for the love of GOD, don't ever watch Once Upon A Time In Mexico. It's absolutely dreadful, I do however fully support it's two preceding movies.

It wasn't that bad (if you are a MST3K fan like myself)... Hell that movie spawned one of my favorite lines of dialog: "Are you a Mexi-can, or a Mexi-can't?"

Of course, If given a choice to watch Once Upon A Time In Mexico or Desperado, I'd choose Desperado.

Who's from Spain

Cinco de Mayo is a regional Mexican holiday, mostly celebrated in the US.

Sorry, I'm not making the connection between Evita and Cinco de Mayo.

Me neither

Yes, it was.

Though I'll concede if you mock it with some friends some enjoyment could be had.
