Contraataque

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.

From a citizen Point of view, This Movie, Perfectly, portraits de Reality of My Country, it is by far one of the best pieces of cinema in the latest years, it's realizing I'm natural, acting capabilities, Without, perfectionist actors, it's like you're seeing real people in real life situations. Keep up the work, Netflix. Some scenes are a little bit over, acted, but it's noticeable just to keep up With the plot, also the ending Lives, you wanting more, and hopefully they will be Another. Hay particular de aquí, actor portrait, Real Life, Mexican People and the ambience is in real scenes from the Mountain Country.

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.

An action movie that fulfills its purpose, being entertaining and providing a different perspective on Mexican justice. It doesn't escape the conventional, but it works.

"Contraataque" has a simple premise that has been seen in many films of the genre; however, the performance of some actors and that Mexican approach to justice is visually pleasing. Adding a small contribution to the cinema of that country, noting that its essence or culture is more than evident.

Within its cinematic sections, the work of Chava Cartas should be highlighted, a director who takes a turn from his previous productions and attempts to add the action genre to his history, achieving his goal and taking advantage of the window provided by Netflix. The director delivered some interesting shots with well-executed action sequences, in addition to reflecting the country's culture in all its splendor.

On the other hand, the development of the performances is decent, although they could have been better. Firstly, due to the performance of Luis Alberti, who takes command of the film with his characterization of the captain and strong expressions (at least at that point). Noé Hernández imposing the harshness and wickedness of his role as the villain. The actor Luis Curiel, from my perspective, is the one who does it best, and I emphasize his depth as a character, which is the one that tries the most to connect with the audience.

That is where the negative points lie that the movie needed to be greater. The script does not delve deeply into many of its protagonists, giving each of them a simplicity that can be counterproductive. If it had a more solid reason, perhaps the experience would be different. In addition to that, there are some interpretations that are quite mediocre, unbelievable, and even detestable to watch, but you'll be able to notice. Some scenes can also be added that have no coherence whatsoever, leaving plot holes or continuity errors. Small details.

"Contraataque" encompasses reflective themes that somehow add to all the action seen on screen. Justice, leadership, teamwork, drug trafficking, kidnapping, smuggling, dirty politics, military training, hope, survival, the loss of loved ones, among others.

In that sense, the movie is entertaining and stands out among many action productions of the year. It's not a gem, but for passing the time, it deserves a chance.

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.
