Description:
Salma Hayek and Penelope Cruz have never been sexier as they team up for this hilarious, action-packed western! Determined to avenge the deaths of their fathers, Sara Sandoval (Hayek) and Maria Alvarez (Cruz) vow to seize the ill-gotten gains of robber baron Tyler Jackson (Dwight Yoakam). So, with help from a retired bank robber (Sam Shepard) and a jittery criminologist (Steve Zahn), these two beauties become unlikely outlaws, blazing a trail of larceny and laughter across Mexico!

First screened in Europe and scheduled for limited release in the U.S., Bandidas can now be viewed by all fans of the visually stunning duo, Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek. Set in Mexico 1888, Bandidas  is a Western spoof about two women, Maria Alvarez (Penelope Cruz) and Sara Sandoval (Salma Hayek), who seek to avenge the tragedies befallen both their fathers under robber baron, Tyler Jackson (Dwight Yoakam). Jackson, employed by the Bank of New York, is sent to Mexico to buy land and open banks to the detriment of local culture. Jackson kills Sara's corrupt father, Don Diego, while bandits burn down Maria's home. The two ladies band together for the community's cause. Under the tutelage of Bill Buck (Sam Sheperd), Sara and Maria develop bank robbery skills. When criminologist, Quentin Cooke (Steve Zahn), hunts them, they convert him with their strong moral sense and good looks. Like any Thelma and Louise-ish tale of women who take charge, Maria and Sara are foil characters who eventually become an invincible, sisterly team. This comedy is built around their bickering. For Sara, with European education and penchant of designer clothing, Maria is a hick who lacks refinement, yet Maria, horse whisperer, can fire a gun. The slapstick is overkill, for example when Sara wonders whether a bandana is Gucci or Prada. However, viewers will love Penelope Cruz on horseback and the two actresses practice-kissing their foe in a brothel. Bandidas is a light film with some laughs and mucho sex appeal. -- Trinie Dalton

Will the two stars get it on, make-out, or at least have a pillow fight? That's the question you the viewer will spend the movie asking, waiting in breathless anticipation for an answer. Well I'm not gonna give it to you. You'll have to watch it to find out. I wouldn't want to spoil the delicious anticipation you'll feel especially since it will keep you tuned in when things get slow. I will say that the girls have a scene where, dressed as French show girls, Salma teaches Penelope how to kiss a ... Read More

It's cliché-filled, but who cares? Did you see the box cover?! Every western has a few of the same scenes dressed up in a different manner depending on the cast. Afterall, villians don't wear white, and there has never been a Hayak/Cruz in skimpy-clothing-and-Wonderbra movie of which I'm aware.
I'm not ashamed to admit that I was looking for some nudity going into this movie, and was disappointed in the fact that neither of the leading ladies lost any lingerie. I thought that the cat ... Read More
