Bad Girls

Another example of family and friends that writes the reviews to rate the film up. First of all the three leading actresses are all horrible at acting which of course makes it one of those movies hard to even watch through. I did it to give it a fair shot but it didn´t get any better and as stated above, such poor acting can´t save any movie. The only good thing is that the girls seems to have a fun time doing the movie. Good for them that they enjoyed it because i bet it will be a long time until they get casted again.

I heard that this was one of those super-low-budget movies you need to watch, and the movie reviewer over at ArsTechnica rarely steers me wrong, but I still spun up the shiny disc this evening with my expectation bar set very low. As if.

I loved this movie. Sure, it's uneven here and there as you would expect from an indie flick with a capital INDIE, but it does a hell of a lot with so very little.

It's got some great cars, great lines, guns, lots of action, a raspy soundtrack that works well, characters that I would have never guessed at the start that I would come to identify with by the end, and some of the most inventive trippy drug scenes ever.

If this doesn't turn into a bona fide cult flick then there is no justice in the universe. Find a copy. Watch it. And tell your friends.

Christopher Bickel's second feature builds on what he learned from his directorial debut, The Theta Girl, to create a modern-day grindhouse classic that owes more to that genre than its more existential predecessor. In doing so, it has its own strengths and weaknesses, but is no less impressive an effort.

Working once again on a shoestring budget ("the cost of a used car," as Bickel often puts it), Bickel takes us on a 90-minute drug-fueled journey with three ex-con strippers hellbent on carving out a dream existence for themselves while laying nightmare waste to all standing in their way. Plot and character exposition are given minimal service in favor of machine-gun visuals, notable quotables, and buckets of blood and guts.

The film moves along at a fast pace with little drag, and there's solid acting throughout, even if the characters and characterizations tend toward the one-dimensional. And kudos for the repurposing of an old-school roadside attraction as "Mexico."

The Theta Girl, Part II, this isn't, which is admirable in itself. In not playing it safe (and in taking an active role in co-writing this film, along with Shane Silman), Bickel has paid full-throated homage to his grindhouse influences that were only hinted at in his first film. That may have its drawbacks in terms of story and narrative, but Bad Girls is a much faster-paced and ultimately more engaging cinematic experience as a viewer. Between the two films, though, it's clear Bickel still has more to offer if he can put it all together in his next film.

Full disclosure: I've known Bickel for 20 years and I had a "blink and you'll miss it" bit as an extra in Bad Girls.

It can be on in the background, the acting might be ok, the plot might be watchable, and there might be some decent scenes.

But this after 5 mins I kept zooming forward, it is actually one of the worst films i have ever seem. And believe me in all my years on this Planet i have seem thousands of films.

I can't say one good thing about this film i am truly amazed these "actors" were actually paid. That they made this pile of dog dodo. The music is just a noise, the girls are not even nice looking. Maybe they are made up that way to look horrible But this is simply the worse thing ever for me and I find that pretty amazing.

There should be a warning on the case, which says "Warning if you want to watch total cack" Then buy this, at least people will then know.

For what it is, this is wayyyyyy above average. Hi octane ,frenectic, well construct. Here we have 3 females going Insane on a rampage.

Great electonic beats 70 disco/80 alternative soundtracks that keep the movie momentum and style super alive. OMG, what about the death apeed black metal or whats not.

Great cast, solid direction, fun script.

The edit is nervous, 16mm style at times, lots of imagery. Some may found it too artsy, too cheap but i say F that, it was fitting like a glove. Think Analog, not digital.... Nearly every situations cranked to 11.

. Super High Value low budget film.
