   Is Miss Bala a good movie?

   • “Miss Bala” lacks the edge you would expect from this type of movie, and its story plays out in the most implausible way. The pieces are there for a thoughtful and thrilling crime drama, but they never come together to form a whole. Page 1 of 4, 7 total items. A great entertaining movie.

   Why was Miss Bala changed from Mexican to Mexican American?

   • Changing the main character of “Miss Bala” from Mexican to Mexican American adds a different kind of complexity to the story, like Gloria’s guilt over her inability to fit in with other Mexicans and when others mock her for being a pocha (a Mexican or someone of Mexican descent who lives in the States and loses their ability to speak Spanish).

   Is Miss Bala a feminist movie?

   • 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, changing its lead from a survivor to a superhero, as if the only way to liberate herself was by using the same violence that kept her captive.
