Compadres

I'm sure I would have enjoyed this movie more if I was ready for mostly subtitles. Most movies today have different languages, which is fine. IDMB lists this as English/Spanish. It should be Spanish/English. 95 % in Spanish. Agian that's fine if that is what you are looking for.

The rest is just to fulfill the character requirements. I know there are movies made all over the world for different audiences. Of course. Actually I watch enough movies wirh Spanish in it that I have been taking an online Spanish course for two years. Sadly Spanish spoken at normal speed is not for rookies.

All that being said Adios.

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.

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.

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.

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...
