Bang Bang Betty: Valerie's Revenge

The release of "Bang Bang Betty - Valerie's Revenge" came swiftly, allowing audiences to dive right into Valerie's action-packed world. After successfully taking down Darnell and his criminal empire, Valerie faces a new challenge - investigating a drug cartel that's distributing lethal drugs laced with fentanyl. Driven by a personal tragedy, she's determined to destroy the cartel's leader, Sanchez, portrayed by Hector Soria. Seeking guidance from her friend Ray, played by Gerald Parrish, who's dedicated to helping local veterans, Valerie's quest for revenge unfolds in a non-stop, edge-of-your-seat crime thriller. This is a must-watch film, boasting thrilling chase scenes, intense shootouts, and explosive moments that set it apart from the average action movies saturating the market. With the hint of a third installment, anticipation for more of Valerie's adventures is building.

I have followed Director Alex Hwang for a good eight years and I think we always have similar journeys but seeing his movie bang bang Betty, I am really, really proud of this fellow filmmaker for making a straight up action film and doing it in a particular style that you don't really see coming from the indie genre I love how he chooses projects to set himself apart from other filmmakers, and this is something that should be studied by filmmakers to really expand and know your market and taking chances outside of horror don't give me wrong. I absolutely love horror, but this is a really really well done movie and I recommend anybody to truly give it a watch. I think this is underrated.

Bang Bang Betty: Valerie's Revenge is a crowd-pleasing action film that sweetly rests on the shoulders of lead, Emily Rose Hernandez. The film tells the story of Valerie's journey to seek revenge in the wake of her lover's murder by the diabolical cartel leader, Sanchez (Hector Soria).

The film features a diverse, ensemble cast bringing solid performances. Standouts for me included Gerald Parrish as Ray, and probably my new favorite henchwoman: Mariah Padilla as Luna.

Overall, the film is a thrilling watch for action/crime moviegoers that isn't afraid of a little girl on girl action or topical editorializing around fentanyl use. Co-writer/Director Alexander T. Hwang delivers so much Bang Bang for the budget, you can't help but enjoy the ride.

I really enjoyed this movie. From the gunplay, to the mano-a-mano fight scenes, to the at times over-the-top dramatics, it's clear the filmmakers had fun telling this story. Valerie is determined to bring down a major drug kingpin who is peddling laced contraband. Assisting her is a team of ex-Feds and DEA cohorts. The story takes us through the deserts and dark corners of the south. Actress Emily Rose Hernandez really owns the lead character. The movie celebrates crime drama in the mold of Tarrantino and Sergio Leone. The finale features a great Western town set with full complement of extras and all the gunplay you could ever wish for. Great movie to watch with friends - highly recommend!

Bang Bang Betty, Valerie's Revenge is like this wild indie ride you didn't see coming, man! Love to see a quality indie film like this one. The story is off the charts - twists and turns that keep you hooked, and Valerie's character is legit badass. But let me tell you, the cinematography is what blew my mind. The visuals are so on point; it's like they painted each scene with pure creativity. The colors, the angles, everything - it's like watching art unfold on the screen. If you're into indie flicks that bring the story and visuals together in a great combo, this one's a must-watch for sure!
