I tend to like his skills more than his films. I've seen a few of his movies in cinemas and other on DVD. On the bonus material Rodriguez always shows a huge amount of enthusiasm for movies, and I respect him for that. There are often interesting elements to his movies, be it either the plot, the look or the actors involved, but I rarely find the end result all that pleasing. The one exception was Sin City, which is one of my favorite comic book movies. Other than that, there isn't much he made that I want to watch again, including those Mariachi films.
