Salam Hayek and Penelope Cruz two hot ladies on the heist movie.. What more do you want.. i don't know why everyone wants story in every movie. We need movies like these sometimes. The making and visuals are really amazing, so colorful. Its normal heist and revenge movie. Salma and Penelope makes it as fun ride movie. Don't believe all the nonsense reviews (Including mine). Just watch the trailer you will know. Worth for the time you spent.

In turn of the century Mexico, two very feisty young ladies who are worlds apart come together for a common cause. They've each lost a father thanks to the machinations of a greedy, conniving, evil robber baron, Tyler Jackson, played with gusto by Dwight Yoakam. At first, spoiled rotten bankers' daughter Sara Sandoval (Salma Hayek) cares only for a personal vendetta, but farm hand Maria Alvarez (Penelope Cruz) opens her eyes to the bigger problem of the exploitation of the Mexican people by people like Jackson. A big city criminologist, Quentin (Steve Zahn), follows the trail of the ladies as they embark on a bank robbery spree."Bandidas" is good, amiable, fairly light entertainment, that bears the marks of co-writer and co-producer Luc Besson. Directed by the team of Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg, it's a gorgeous widescreen combination of Western, comedy, and action film. It might be too silly for the tastes of some people, but others are sure to find it likable, funny, and charming. Certainly it succeeds as a showcase for the appealing leading actresses, who are at their sexiest and liveliest. Their banter flies back and forth, and they even fight over the nerdy Quentin, who becomes a believer in their cause.Zahn offers a good counterpoint as the straight man to their antics, and it's an amusing bit of irony that HE'S the one who gets naked in this story. Delivering solid supporting performances are Denis Arndt, Audra Blaser, Ismael 'East' Carlo, Gary Carlos Cervantes, Jose Maria Negri, and Humberto Elizondo. Sam Shepard gets a particularly delicious role as the retired bank robber who teaches Sara and Maria the finer points of that line of work.It may not be all that memorable, but "Bandidas" IS a pleasant diversion for a little over an hour and a half.Seven out of 10.

The main feeling we get watching is Luc Besson's fantasy to work with two of the hottest ladies in the world and he that he all made it last the longest possible unable letting those gorgeous sweeties go away. I could never let 'em go either without feeling like crying so I understand Besson, but still can't say it's worth the watch. People who attended theaters tow watch must have felt like they've been stolen their money and time while on a lazy Sundy afternoon it might fill a background ambiance well.Those two beauties leave you with something to remember but it's indeed something they'd do anywhere they get whether it's on a screen or in reality. Let's be honest, if it wouldn't be for them you rather not even think about how sour this citron might get! Luc, never repeat it!

Bandidas might have a lousy script, and very little in the way of decent action or comedy, but it does have four (big) things going for it: two of them belong to Salma Hayek and the other two belong to Penelope Cruz.Yes... the main (or only) reasons for watching this rather lame western are tucked down the front (and sometimes bulging out) of the stars' tight cleavage-enhancing costumes. The buxom beauties' magnificent mammaries steal the show, making the film just about worthwhile.Hot 'n' spicy Hayek and comely Cruz play two feisty señoritas—one a spoilt rich brat (Hayek), the other a peasant girl (Cruz)—who, with the help of a police forensics expert (played by Steve Zahn), become bank robbers in order to save their country's land and wealth from an unscrupulous employee of an American railroad company.Expect plenty of dull shootouts and dreary bank heists, interspersed with welcome scenes in which the stars' heaving bosoms strain to contain themselves within tightly laced corsetry (phew!). The highlight of the whole film sees the tasty twosome tie down a semi-naked Steve Zahn and pose for a series of sexy photographs, in an attempt to blackmail the lucky blighter! (personally, if these gals were to offer me a similar 'Kodak moment', the results would be on my MySpace page before you could say 'Ay, caramba!').Bandidas gets 1 point for each of the stars' breasts, plus an extra point for the incredibly silly Matrix-style knife/gun-fight at the end, giving it a rating of 5/10.
