Three Amigos! (1986) - Movie Review and Analysis

Aaron and Steve discuss the 1986 comedy/western, Three Amigos! In 1916, when a small Mexican village is terrorized by the local gang, they reach out to the only heroes who can help, The Three Amigos. Unbeknownst to the villagers, the Amigos, Dusty Bottoms (Chevy Chase), Lucky Day (Steve Martin), and Ned Nederlander (Martin Short) are merely silent movie stars who play heroes on the screen. The Three Amigos travel to Mexico thinking they are there to perform a live-action show when they end face to face with the head of the gang, the Infamous El Guapo (Alfonso Arau).

Who are the true heroes of Santa Poco? 
How old is El Guapo? 
Is there a more true friendship out there than between Jefe and El Guapo? 

These questions and more on this week’s Cinema Decon.
