It's such a familiar plot these days (Yikes! Endangered by the Mexican cartels!) that a new entry such as this one is measured by all that came before.
Until the very last sequence, measures up quite well!
Why it's called Miss Bala…

If you like non-stop tension and characters who have to do whatever they can to survive, then give this a try. Gina Rodriguez does an amazing job of playing a regular woman thrust into a terrifying situation; Ismael Cruz Córdova was the…

Probably not the greatest movie you'll ever see, but still some pretty solid entertainment. The ordinary, girl-next-door heroine retains a believable character, keeping her focus, integrity, and sanity in the face of insurmountable odds -…

A decent action thriller movie about a makeup artist who goes to Tijuana, Mexico to visit her friend and suddenly gets caught up in a storm of organized crime, cartel bosses, drugs, and violence. A remake of the 2011 Spanish film of the…

Average movie. Maybe a B-minus, it's not one I would be keen to see again. I also can't understand the 4, 4plus, and 5 stars it's getting from others. Very misleading. But each to his own as they say.

This movie is a complete waste of time. The heroine is completely unbelievable and the plot ludicrous and laughable. So grateful I didn't have to waste my money on this piece of Hollywood trash.

Fun movie that reminds me of "Maria Full of Grace" 2004, although the critics liked that one but hated this. Gina Rodriguez looks sexy holding an AK-rifle in a red-dress, walking through smoke, fire and debris, and has that wide-eyed…

Remake of the 2011 Mexican film of the same name with a couple of minor subplot tweaks and a hollywood ending. Negatives are less gritty action scenes and locations. Positives are superior production sets, a very good latin-american…
