Stars: Gina Rodriguez, Anthony Mackie, Thomas Dekker, Vivian Chan, Barbarella Pardo, Cristina Rodlo, Sebastián Cano, Damián Alcázar, Ricardo Abarca, Ismael Cruz Cordova, Erick Delgadillo, Mikhail Plata | Written by Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer | Directed by Catherine Hardwicke
Miss Bala is the English language remake of the Mexican film of the same name, released in 2011, directed by Gerardo Naranjo. The 2019 remake is directed by Catherine Hardwicke and features Jane the Virgin star, Gina Rodriguez as Gloria. A character who is caught up in a deadly game between gangland Mexico and Us forces, who plant Gloria in the midst of gathering intel on the former or face prosecution in the Us by the latter. Miss Bala for the most part, is an enjoyable little action/thriller. It’s never completely riveting or mesmerising in what it offers but sticks to what it knows with Hardwicke strong behind the wheel.
Performance wise it’s a mixed bag overall.
