Bala Perdida

If you are a action movie fan then you would love this film; it has car chases, good choreographed fights, although the fights are a bit of gore, The action scenes are solid, if not spectacular.. The story is plain and with few simple characters: A wicked cop willing to climb the precinct corporate ladder no matter what and with no qualms for murder and a wizard mechanic in preparing cars to make it go fast to chase offenders gets hired by the police. Both get embattled in a fight for all or nothing. Fun and action is what this movie offers.

Those who made negative reviews are stupid and don't know how review.

No, its not a Fast and Furious type movie, neither ia Mad Max one. So don't come expecting this.

Nice story. Not original, but nicely built, intriguing and makes sense. Acting is good and helps story's development.

It not a Hollywood movie, but as a French action thriller is much better than Earth and Blood, and as I mentioned before, at least this movie has a story and is not just stupid action just because...

The action is awesome, not ridiculous as FnF would be, it feels ls more realistic. Yes, it has some sorts of MaD Max elements for his modified cars, but it doesn't feel like that. Its action is unique.

Effects, both practical and cgi, are outstanding for not being Hollywood. Wounds, bruises, makeup is amazing. Together with the action, seem credible, something close to what could really happen.

So in summary : Don't come expecting what critics want you to compare the movie with. Watch it as a unique movie, and enjoy it. You'll see that it deserves appreciation.

If you want to watch a movie with good action, and à decent story, then this is for you. It does have a lot of cliches, but that doesn't matter if you're just looking to shut your mind off and be entertained. It's that döner kebab that hits the spot and not the four course five star meal.

If you're expecting to see some sappy, boring, poorly-written and contrived Hollywood action flick, you're gonna be sorely disappointed. Guillaume Pierret is a director to be reckoned with. This film is so taut, there is not a single frame wasted on trivial dialogue or scenes that don't propell the story forward faster than a speeding bullet. If you're familiar with my reviews, you know that I don't spare many films my wrath. Trust me, you're gonna like this one...or you've lost your way.

Great action, a solid story, swift (and strong) character development considering the relatively short run time, good acting, good direction, good casting, good production, heroes, villains, and doesn't take itself too seriously (the opening scene is very funny and at least one of the fight scenes is is so implausible that it's actually brilliant).

A low budget, off the radar, very competent action film.
