Makinavaja, el último choriso is a 1992 Spanish crime comedy film directed by Carlos Suárez based on the comics by . It stars Andrés Pajares as the title character alongside Jesús Bonilla, Mario Pardo, Pedro Reyes, Mary Santpere, and Carmen Conesa.
The plot follows the mishaps of two clumsy low-key criminals (Makinavaja and Popeye) in El Raval, Barcelona.[1]
The film was produced by Tesauro, Dos Ocho Cine, and Tamaya PC.
The film was the only Spanish picture among the 30 highest-grossing releases in Spain from January to October 1992.[2]
Casimiro Torreiro of El País observed a "vocation for transgression", not implying, "unfortunately, success when it comes to transgressing", with the result from the adaptation leaving "ample room for doubt", with none of the performers (bar possibly Santpere) seemingly believing a lot in what they are doing.[3]
