Contraataque

Captain Guerrero saves two women from getting kidnapped by cartel members and the women tell them that they witnessed a mass grave so the cartel wanted to silence them. The cartel's leader has a grudge over Captain Guerrero and his team so he plans an ambush on them when they are off duty as well as unarmed. How do these elite group fight their way back to safety while they remained outgunned and outnumbered, forms rest of the story.

Chava Cartas's film is definitely an entertaining actioner which gets into business quickly after establishing the events that leads to the ambush quickly. The elite group is thick and as the story progresses, we get a chance to connect with the younger sharp shooter and the medic while they also establish the group's dynamics. All these provide for the entertainment and the action scenes keep the adrenaline rush pumping.

I haven't seen many mexican movies like this, any period. Great talented actors, nobodys going to win a nobel prize for litiature but dialogue was beleivable and engaging. Sometimes it can be hard to watch some films like this but storyline was good nothing cheesy about it. I wish i knew of a true story like this in mexico actually occured and brought to film but the cartel really is too dangerous to provoke. Language, slang and termonology was authentic and beleivable. Alot of action, good action nothing too out there. Am proud of productiona nd whoever was behind it all, overall good quality. Hope theres another!!! Hechele ganas!!

If you love series like Narcos, you'll like this one. It it great entertaining fir it's budget. Do not expect a masterpiece or The Expendables, and you'll fine.

First, I really enjoyed this kind of Mexican productions like Contraataque. There is nothing new here, but everything is done pretty well keeping in mind the budget.

Second, acting here is good. Even it is an action movie, there are also a few things that are remarkable even the amateurish cast.

Last, action scenes are better than 90% of Hollywood similar movies. No CGI here and great old school action scenes.

So, if you want an entertaining B-action movie, this one is for you.

I really enjoyed this movie. I'm not Spanish speaking hell I'm from Sweden but I truly enjoyed this movie. Didn't matter it wasn't in English. I think the acting was on point, photography was great same with effects. I felt it could have gone any way in the end but without giving spoilers it really held me on edge.

There were some minor things I object to or dislike but it's so small it what drags it down to 8/10.

And 8/10 is because I truly enjoyed it. For me a movie is good and I enjoy the whole movie then it's a 10. That's how ratings should work. If there's something I feel could have been better then I degrade it.

But rest assured. It's very watchable. Great action.

When comes straight to videos a la Cannon films, Contra Ataque falls in that category.

Ye ve the cheesy dialogue, proud been mexiken army(which they misterious) then important el machismo asking since when Netflix is interested in this here review: The story with a low budget play out average n quite dumb un special forces captain is always behind a drug lords operation sending brother finish him off once kill it became a hunt turned into Carpenter masterpiece Asault in Precincts 13. The action sequences ye know there straight out b class material.

The live or die that's hearings Gun n roses song.

Oh do not forget the victims they find house, get arm up with some good old M16.

The thing like that main bad guy is arm with the heavy of em all, call it call duty thang.

Forgot to mention the final fight with the captain n boss, could be awesome if were a Mexican machete, add some Korean taste.

So conclude the film is pure military propaganda like any other, is the stand off seen in many classic western.

But ye want cheap action to kill the time Go for it.
