Plots(1)
Instead of returning from the war to a hero's welcome, Frank Vega (Danny Trejo) finds himself shunned by society, leaving him without a job or his high school sweetheart. Forty years later, he becomes an overnight internet sensation, when he is filmed protecting an elderly black man from a pair of skinheads on a local bus. But when his best friend is murdered and the police fail to respond, Frank decides it's time to take action as he gets mean, angry, and even. (20th Century Fox Home Entertainment)

Danny Trejo is such a natural badass that I don’t even need to believe he’s playing a character—he just is that guy, and it works perfectly. He carries this film effortlessly, turning what could’ve been a throwaway action flick into something solid. Trejo proves that when a movie’s built around him, he doesn’t need the flashy hype of something like Machete to deliver a great action-packed ride.

Danny Trejo as a badass who kicks the asses of those who the police couldn't care less about or are too short with them. It's terribly predictable, but I still can't help it, this is just quite cool. He's a nobody (although a veteran from Vietnam) who gives the jerks a hard time. I like Trejo, so that's about it.
