Stumbling upon the 2023 Mexican comedy "Fuga de Reinas" (aka "Queens on the Run") while perusing the available movies on Netflix, of course I opted to sit down and watch the movie, based on the synopsis. I hadn't heard about the movie prior to sitting down to watch it, however.
Writer Martha Higareda put together an enjoyable enough script for director Jorge Macaya to bring the screen. "Fuga de Reinas" is a road-trip movie with a bit more to it, and there were a fair amount of funny moments throughout the 96 minutes that the movie ran for, and the character gallery was definitely interesting, and those helped to set "Fuga de Reinas" aside from numerous other road-trip movies.
The acting performances in the movie were good. And given my very limited exposure to Mexican cinema, I have to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actress or actor on the cast list. But it should be noted that the performances on the screen were good, and they definitely had some good talents on the cast list.
"Fuga de Reinas" is a light-hearted comedy, one that unfortunately came and went without leaving much of a lasting impression on me. Director Jorge Macaya's 2023 movie is good for a single viewing, but there simply isn't enough contents to the script to support more than a single viewing.
My rating of "Fuga de Reinas" lands on a five out of ten stars.
