Reviews for Bandidas
Never has a film with Luc Besson's fingerprints on it popped so little, but only directors Joachim Roenning and Espen Sandberg are to blame for the film's lack of imagination.
A nominal action-comedy that fails to provide either excitement or amusement.
Luc Besson deve ter uma lábia fabulosa para ter conseguido convencer duas atrizes estabelecidas a se sujeitarem a este tipo de chauvinismo pavoroso.
It's incredibly inconsequential, buttery entertainment, but it'll surely put a smile on your face if you can find a way to appreciate its rambunctious spirit.
This is essentially a buddy comedy with cleavage, and quite a bit at that.
Bandidas comes from writer/producer Luc Besson, and it has the same kind of brisk, lightweight comic action as films like Wasabi (2001) and The Transporter (2002).
a pleasant surprise, especially for what is basically a DVD release... and it helps to have two gorgeous women headlining the film
Silly, breezy fun, fueled by playful chemistry between its charismatic, appealing stars.
