Juarez 2045 (2017)
8/10
Fun sci-fi/action outing
20 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
2045. The war on drugs in Mexico has escalated to the point where cartels use deadly robots to enforce their operations. Ex-Marine Carson Wright (a solid and likeable performance by Brad Schmidt) gets assigned to take down ruthless drug kingpin Angel Malvado (robustly played with lip-smacking wicked relish by Danny Trejo).

Writer/director Chris Le relates the enjoyably inane story at a snappy pace, stages the exciting action with aplomb, delivers a handy helping of bloody violence, and treats the silly premise with admirable seriousness. Oscar Olivares impresses as Angel's browbeaten son Gabriel. The robots look really funky, too. A total blast.
