Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Janet Maslin, New York Times: Mr. Rodriguez may be good enough to make a film about anything, but Desperado would collapse if its characters had to do anything but play with guns. Read more
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times: What Rodriguez has essentially done in Desperado is make a slicker, more expensive copy of what came before. And what looked promising for $7,000 looks tiresome for a whole lot more. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: What happens looks terrific. Now if [Rodriguez] can harness that technical facility to a screenplay that's more story than setup, he might really have something. Read more
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: The routine gets tiresome for the Mariachi, and for the audience, too, after about an hour. Read more
