Featured reviews
The film is interesting in that it weaves many elements together. It is fictional, but it is entertaining. It is entertaining with larger than life elements. Understanding that it was one of the first productions of this scale by these film-makers, I enjoyed the knowledge that it was a small project. Having lived in Northern New Mexico, I enjoyed the excellent camera-work and the way in which the scenery was well-portrayed. The characters were different and the story was unique. If you want to see a movie that is out of the ordinary, that speaks a bit about where it's from, and that might show you a place you haven't seen before (whether fictionally portrayed or whether in scenery) - then you'll enjoy this film.
The strong bond between these siblings is Epic. The elder sister will do all what it takes by any means necessary to sustain her only younger sister's livelihood after learning what she (young Sis) has got in herself into. Living in a Barrio (Latino-Hoodom) for some is not always simple!
This movie is a Powerful, Profound and Highly Plausible way of life in any Chicano community here in North America that is portrayed here.
With well known Latin celebrities alike and others, actors/actresses all shown superior performance. This is an all Hispanic, Latino/Latina and Native American depicted story.
Without a doubt awards will be earn and deserved for this dramatic movie.

This movie ROCKED!! I enjoyed everything about it....the music, the nice rides, the bad guys that you love to hate, the breathtaking landscapes and cool artwork in the background, but most of all I loved the story! I was on the edge of my seat, waiting to see what happened next. I thought it was extremely well written and the actors did an amazing job portraying their roles. The characters were well developed and believable. Great to see strong female Hispanic and Native Americans figures in a film! The villains were well played too! I loved the dialogue and the scenery. The more I watch it, the more I like it. We need more movies like this. Blaze You Out is a MUST see and a definite favorite of mine already. I would absolutely recommend this flick.
BLAZE YOU OUT is a handsome first feature by directors Mateo Frazier and Diego Joaquin Lopez and their talented cast and crew. Set in northern New Mexico, the film is a masterful tapestry of stunning landscapes and human drama. Life would be normal in this Latino and Native American town except for the evil - a cunning drug-dealing matriarch (Elizabeth Pena) and her seductively twisted son, Whitey (brilliantly portrayed by Mark Adair-Rios). But they go too far when Whitey doggedly pursues Alicia (Melissa Cordero), a witness to one of his murders. With ferocious determination, Alicia's sister, Lupe (portrayed by the talented Veronica Diaz-Carranza) recruits her friends who invoke their own courage and mystical forces to save themselves and their cultures from extinction. Superb cinematography and editing, visually rich lighting -- huge production value. Well done.
I really wanted to like this movie but it really does suck. The ending is so weird and makes no sense. The whole story is average at best. Wow I wish I could take back that hour and half I lost
