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.

Jonathan Brunelle The main feeling we get watching is Luc Besson's fantasy to work with two of the hottest ladies in the world and he that he all made it last the longest possible unable letting those gorgeous sweeties go away. I could never let 'em go either without feeling like crying so I understand Besson, but still can't say it's worth the watch. People who attended theaters tow watch must have felt like they've been stolen their money and time while on a lazy Sundy afternoon it might fill a background ambiance well.Those two beauties leave you with something to remember but it's indeed something they'd do anywhere they get whether it's on a screen or in reality. Let's be honest, if it wouldn't be for them you rather not even think about how sour this citron might get! Luc, never repeat it!

Samiam3 Bandiadas is Strictly b-movie material, but that doesn't mean it has no spirit. If nothing else, one is liable to get a kick out of Hollywood's two hottest Spanish actresses sharing screen time, wielding knives and pistolas, and playing off each other with one liners like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The end result is a dumb, but cute comedic westernBandidas makes up for its lack of brains and creativity, with satire. It keeps the movie from being dull or obnoxious (generally) but I think it is safe to say that the movie could've been funnier. Robert Rodriguez would be very much at home behind the camera on this one. Under such circumstances, Badidas would not just be spiced up but may have even been clever. On another matter, It is a wonder how something that features names like Hayek, Cruz, writer Luc Besson, and even Sam Shepard (renowned American play write and co-star of The Right Stuff), did not get major commercial release. At any rate, Bandidas remains silly but is amusing enough to make it worth a peek (assuming it catches your attention)

Em D This is a good movie if you are looking for something that is so bad it's funny. I don't remember ever hearing about it coming out, I'm wondering if it just went straight to DVD. I managed to sit through the whole thing, although three of the four other people I was watching it with left before it was over. It has decent entertainment value, but is without merit as any kind of quality film. The "bandidas" are clothed in the most ridiculously provocative way throughout the movie and are constantly getting wet or fighting each other. Most of the script is poorly written which results in awkward line delivery from the largely mediocre cast. Penelope and Salma do as well as they could in this movie, but I'm not sure what possessed them to choose this script. The funniest part is the range of accents you get from the supposed "Mexicans". The plot had multiple problems and every once in awhile I just wasn't sure what was going on. I would consider it to be a "mock western", but it almost seems that it is trying to be an actual western, and, if that is the case, it has completely missed the mark. They have a strange mix of serious subject matter covering the exploitation of the Mexicans by the Americans combined with unrealistic and impossible events carried out by these two prima donna characters. While this movie was good for some laughs (all at its expense) I don't think it was worth it.
