	Author	Review
United States	Geoff Berkshire Variety	"As violent as its predecessor yet noticeably duller and less outrageous, 'Machete Kills' is dragged to the finish line entirely by its director’s madcap energy and an absurd cast of major stars in strange cameos."	NEU
United States	Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter	"The series’ engagingly lowbrow concept gets overwhelmed by episodic plotting and uninspired, rote performances."	NEG
United Kingdom	Dan Jolin Empire	"Violent, silly, embarrassing, clumsy, confusing, juvenile, occasionally offensive, occasionally a little bit fun. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	David Edelstein New York Magazine	"The carnage (...) is meant to be campy fun, but it’s so offhand that there’s less suspense than in an Austin Powers movie."	NEG
United States	Scott Bowles USA Today	"'Machete Kills' dulls more than anything. It's not that Robert Rodriguez's sequel lacks any of the camp or exploitative violence of the 2010 original. The mayhem has just become boring."	NEG
