Miss Bala Ratings & Reviews
FilmWeek (LAist)
Tim Cogshell
This film suffers from its Hollywood-ization... It's all so slick.
Film Comment Magazine
Michael Sragow
Miss Bala provides the first feasible argument for our southern neighbor to pay for building a wall: to keep Hollywood hacks out of the country.
Rolling Stone
Bilge Ebiri
This Hollywoodized remake is mostly generic and uninspired, but it also proves that Rodriguez has the makings of a true movie star.
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
Miss Bala offers a self-flattering vision of American strength, as one focused gun-toting gal strikes a blow for her gender while cleaning up a skirmish in the ongoing war on drugs.
Tribune News Service
Rick Bentley
[Director Catherine Hardwicke] gets solid performances from the actors, especially Rodriguez. If only there wasn't the mindset that movies made for an American audience can't end on a negative note.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Anyone thinking about plunking down the bucks to check out "Miss Bala" this weekend: You DEFINITELY deserve better than this.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
The souped-up plot is certainly indigestible, and there's a steady stream of bad laughs, but something genuinely frightening comes through: a woman's sense of disempowerment by men on all sides of the law.
Salon.com
Gary M. Kramer
Hardwick's film is gleefully entertaining in a B-movie kind of way, zesty yet also corny at times....For those who go along for the wild, undemanding ride, it makes for a good Friday night action flick.
Associated Press
Jocelyn Noveck
Rodriguez and her fans deserve better than "Miss Bala," a disappointingly bland and formulaic Hollywood remake of a much grittier and bleaker Mexican thriller.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Hardwicke's latest is undeniably generic.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
The film is calculation impure and simple. It's a box-ticking exercise in female jeopardy, survival and empowerment, oppressively efficient in its relentless way but unrelieved by emotional resonance.
RogerEbert.com
Monica Castillo
Although the new Miss Bala gives its lead character the agency to fight back and outsmart her captors, the film overdoses on its own message of pop feminist empowerment.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
Achieving tonal balance between sociology and schlock is no easy task, and this film doesn't pull it off.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
It goes so far it becomes cartoonish.
New York Post
Rob Bailey-Millado
Overall, "Miss Bala" is a misfire - but its leading lady is No. 1 with a bullet. And that's a beautiful sight to see.
NPR
Chris Klimek
Resourceful and athletic without ever becoming superhuman, Rodriguez is easy to root for.
AV Club
Jesse Hassenger
It's the kind of thriller about violent turf wars, corruption, and sex trafficking that's rated PG-13, in case some 11-year-olds want to see it unaccompanied.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
You see Gina Rodriguez's infectious, light-up-the-sky smile only a couple of times in "Miss Bala," and it's just enough to make you wish that she were in a different movie.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
It's mostly left to Rodriguez to carry the absurdity on her shoulders, and the fact that she makes it so watchable is a real testament to her abilities. Next time, may the material rise at least halfway to meet her.
The Playlist
Kimber Myers
Miss Bala fails both when judged on its own merits and when compared to its predecessor. Just like Gloria in the film itself, Gina Rodriguez is the only hero here.
