redwhiteandblue1776 Some people rate movies as if all movies were made to win the best picture of the year. Apparently they don't think movies can be made just to be fun and entertaining. This is one of those movies. OK, there are goofs. OK the plot is pretty simple. But there are tons of great sight gags, fun special effects, great dialog, and a couple of "supper smart" horses that make this a really fun shows. I always like to read the reviews by people who "hated" the movie and rated it 1 or 2. Sad they can't just watch sit back and enjoy movies like other people. Bandidas is just a funny movie. If you haven't seen it, watch it.

KSB Salam Hayek and Penelope Cruz two hot ladies on the heist movie.. What more do you want.. i don't know why everyone wants story in every movie. We need movies like these sometimes. The making and visuals are really amazing, so colorful. Its normal heist and revenge movie. Salma and Penelope makes it as fun ride movie. Don't believe all the nonsense reviews (Including mine). Just watch the trailer you will know. Worth for the time you spent.

Desertman84 Latina heartthrobs Salma Hayek and Penélope Cruz co-headline the rousing indie Western movie entitled,"Bandidas". It tells the tale of two very different women in mid-19th century Mexico who become a bank robbing duo in an effort to combat a ruthless enforcer terrorizing their town. It was produced and written by Luc Besson. The film was directed by Norwegian directors Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg.Sara and Maria are two women whose fathers are each wiped out by a nasty, vile, gun-wielding swindler named Tyler Jackson,who cuts a bloody swath across the Southwest as he reduces one bank after another to an impoverished trash heap. In revenge, these women vow to beat Tyler at his own game by hitting and robbing each of the banks before their father's killer can reach them. The movie is has the same kind of brisk and lightweight comic action.The only thing going for it is the playful chemistry between its charismatic,sexy and appealing stars - Cruz and Hayek - who are look to good at and nothing more.

MieMar Good fun (if bit predictable). However, started to wonder as was watching it...what's wrong with two talented beautiful actresses acting their age...?!! They should have either cast girls - actresses who look like they could be young daughters still living at home at the start of the film ie teenagers - and so it would have had that believable silliness of two girls finding themselves, learning how to kiss & rob banks etc.Or, with Hayek and Cruz simply being women of their own age in the era, more experienced, with a bit of character history (not just "educated in Europe" and "a farmer's sweet daughter")...The ladies aren't that touching as just little ingenues anymore (and nothing wrong with that! )... and so we are left with just a male fantasy, boring for this girl viewer, where these two gorgeous, much seen actresses are pretending they are sweet sixteen, bit ditzy and oh so not-threatening.Pretty half-hearted, for two "bandidas". Too girly for most guys, too "guy-y" for most girls...
