Königinnen auf der Flucht

The 10 out of 10 star ratings were just as ridiculous as the 1 out of 10 star ratings were. I don't think anyone seeing any of the previews would judge this movie to be anything but an attempt at some light-hearted comedy and to get a few gorgeous women as scantily clad as possible by the end. It mirrored most of the road trip comedy movies that you may have ever seen and took one or two situations from several of them. You should not expect it to be part of the Charlie's Angels franchise but at least they made it through "this" movie with very little unnecessarly forced PC. I've only seen a couple of movies that deserved a 10-10 rating in my lifetime and even those very few people gave them a 10-10. I watched the Spanish version with the English captions and was able to follow pretty well and if you're not expecting it to be 100% realistic, which most of these type of movies are definitely not, then you can enjoy it and won't feel bad that you wasted your time.

Stumbling upon the 2023 Mexican comedy "Fuga de Reinas" (aka "Queens on the Run") while perusing the available movies on Netflix, of course I opted to sit down and watch the movie, based on the synopsis. I hadn't heard about the movie prior to sitting down to watch it, however.

Writer Martha Higareda put together an enjoyable enough script for director Jorge Macaya to bring the screen. "Fuga de Reinas" is a road-trip movie with a bit more to it, and there were a fair amount of funny moments throughout the 96 minutes that the movie ran for, and the character gallery was definitely interesting, and those helped to set "Fuga de Reinas" aside from numerous other road-trip movies.

The acting performances in the movie were good. And given my very limited exposure to Mexican cinema, I have to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actress or actor on the cast list. But it should be noted that the performances on the screen were good, and they definitely had some good talents on the cast list.

"Fuga de Reinas" is a light-hearted comedy, one that unfortunately came and went without leaving much of a lasting impression on me. Director Jorge Macaya's 2023 movie is good for a single viewing, but there simply isn't enough contents to the script to support more than a single viewing.

My rating of "Fuga de Reinas" lands on a five out of ten stars.

In my opinion this movie was actually a pretty good one? In disagreement with other people this movie is great. It is labeled as a comedy movie. What did you guys expect? I was laughing out loud in my room at 6 am because everything was funny surely some jokes are "too old" or "been done before" but what's wrong with that? That doesn't make those jokes unfunny? If you laughed you laughed that's all it is. Great movie, great actors. Great production,Glad i watched it. Maybe it's only "flaw" would be the lack of a plot but in my opinion if the movie is comedic and made me laugh then that movie is good and that's all i care about.

I didn't want to juge this movie from its beginning, but it just got worse... the movie was way to much and did not have a context that would hook watchers to watch the rest of the movie. This movie doesn't have one still plot line that would carry on to the very end, more so a meaningless event that happed so the main characters can come together to have problems that just don't make any sense throughout the movie the main characters just got thrown a of string problems that some effected them some more then the other but the main problem of this movie was that how bad the problems are and how they just didn't have any sense.

Actually more like theirs - but I wanted to make sure it is clear it is female driven (which I reckon one could call the second pun I make already - no pun intended for either of them of course). The movie is weird - and funny at times. Some jokes land, some others ... could have been better. Overall the movie itself seems unsure what it is - there does not seem to be a clear through line or whatever you would call it.

So you get different vibes from this. The actors are fine overall - and there is some mayhem towards the end that I really loved (it went beyond anything I would think it would do) ... it is female empowerment and it may just be exactly right for you. I am not going to tell anyone they are wrong in loving this - same is true for those who were not able to find much to like in this ... I wanted to like this more and it is endearing in some respect to ... so there is that.
