Compadres

Sorry, thats really bad... and far too long... its like the director didnt know if doing an action movie or a comedy, so he didnt either. No chemistry between the two main characters, everything painfully obvious, and the only good thing are some of the side characters who acted well, but didnt get enough lines...

México very rarely produces action movies, it's always comedy or drama, but this time they did it, and did it well! The scenes, the effects, the music everything fitted perfectly! The quality of the production is really good, so give it a try. If you're expecting an ACTION movie like the ones with The Rock or Jason Statham, I mean NO this is no the right movie for you. This is COMEDY, action comedy, and if you don't understand American humor then don't criticize this movie. The film has a lot of action and good fight scenes, guns, money, blood and the best, humor!

Maybe Omar Chaparro wasn't the perfect guy for the main role but he's a really good comedian so I have no complains. On the other hand Joey Morgan makes a great job with a more serious role. If you're Mexican you'll even recognize a lot of cameos from several celebs that I'm sure will make you laugh.

The movie is funny, perfect for relaxing a little bit, lots of laughs, very well done. If you have the chance go see it! If you like movies like The Hangover type, then you'll like this one ;)

Wow am I impressed! When I first saw this I thought to myself: " Well if they didn't get a cheap version of Jonah hill to make an American style Comedy Movie about nerds done by Mexicans. What a cheap gimmick." Yet that is not the case at all. When you give the movie a chance, you find out, that the ruddy "kid", Actually does a good job acting. He did a good job, unlike minor characters in low grade American Comedy movies. The movie actually has substance. I Enjoyed the many different types of Mexican Personalities portrayed in this movie. It gives International audiences a glimpse into personalities not typically portrayed even in Mexican Cinema. Whats really cool about the Film is that it feels like you're reading a Comic Book. Nothing too deep, while at the same time having enough Interesting Scenarios to keep you entertained, and the right amount of sentimentalism to keep you engaged with the Character's Relationships. This is the first Mexican Cinema Film in which I have seen the use of Odd Pair characters, which I believe was used effectively in this film. I personally enjoyed the Mexican Beauties portrayed in this Film. I believe it is about time someone portrayed what Hot Mexican girls actually look like. It was fun to see the director, allow the women to be themselves and portray normal Mexican girls instead of the typical seductive Spanish Señorita, Salma Hayek was turned into by her agents. Also, the amount of cameos by Major and Minor Mexican and Chicano celebrities was astounding. I really enjoyed that as a fan of these celebrities.

This Mexican crime caper comedy gets decent performances from its two leads Omar Chaparro and Joey Morgan, and, on occasion, its dark humor works. However, for the most part the preponderance of the movie is filled with strong violence, a number of gross-out scenes, many attempts at black humor that fall flat, and numerous crosses and double-crosses that can get quite tiresome.

The plot revolves around a Mexican police lieutenant (Chapparo) who must join forces with a 17-year-old hacker (Morgan) to try and find his kidnapped pregnant girlfriend, as they get caught up in a Mexican mob chase involving millions of dollars.

Overall, the film directed by Enrique Begne, just,in my opinion, wasn't consistent enough in what it offered. To me, it seemed to have its moments but then would regress again, and thus the low rating.

Compadres is a Film that would not get you bored at all, because it's pack with action, and when it's not shooting around it's having a blast joking around with every little situation it finds, jokes may be based in Mexican culture but any person with should get them with ease.

Movie may not be proper for kids but if your willing to take them it will be really enjoyable for them it has something for all the family. This comment are based in my opinion because I went with my family and they seem to enjoyed a lot.

All in All is super funny and enjoyable, it's perfect for days when you just wanna see and interesting movie and you just want not to over think every small detail.
