Bang Bang Betty

"Bang Bang Betty" kicks off with the introduction of Kiara, a veteran known as Bang Bang Betty from her combat days. Now working as a lawyer with a desire to atone for her past, her life takes a dark turn when her informant is murdered, and she narrowly survives a brutal attack. With no alternative, Kiara taps into the combat skills she honed during her military service to confront a notorious crime boss. Director Alexander T. Hwang delivers action-packed sequences tightly and beautifully edited . The lead performances by Kakra Nunoo-Brown as Kiara and Emily Rose Hernandez as Valerie are backed by a stellar supporting cast, including Marc Anthony Wazer as Darnell and Daniel Moen as Mathew, who injects humor into the narrative. The well-choreographed fight scenes and action sequences are executed at a professional level, making Valerie's character a true standout and eliciting cheers from the viewers.

This movie starts out with a bang (ha) and keeps it moving from there. Who doesn't love a good revenge movie with the setup of Hang 'Em High? Betty is left for dead, but crawls herself back to the land of the living. From there we get to sit and watch as she wreaks havoc on those that did her wrong.

There's a bunch of cool photography in this movie when Betty is hanging on for life. It's also fun to watch this gal use her hand to hand combat skills to pummel pretty much everyone she comes into contact with, moreso because the whole lot of them deserve it.

Great casting, needle drops, and some over-the-top villains and henchmen round out a good time here. Don't miss it!

At its best, this is like a low-budget Kill Bill. It has solid action and welcome touches of humor. The standout in the cast is Kakra Nunoo-Brown as the title character. She's strikingly beautiful but also warm and approachable - that is unless you get on her wrong side as her enemies soon discover. I wouldn't be surprised if her career took off and she became a household name.

Gerald Parrish is also good as her mentor/father figure Ray - though their bonding and subsequent training sequence is a bit rushed. Still, I enjoyed their playful banter.

Emily Rose Hernandez is the other cast standout, both tough and beautiful, though with a vulnerability that wins the audience over.

Good Tubi popcorn flick.

This is a story of justice and vengeance done in a fun style. The movie starts sexy, adds some action, which leads to a big shoot out, showdown in a desert town. The direction is solid, the cinematography beautiful, and if the pacing slows down a bit towards the third act, the action ramps up again for the final shoot out. The performances are good, some a little underplayed to let the drama push the story along (this is a revenge story after all) but Emily Rose Hernandez lead performance holds the story together. There are some standout supporting performances including Kevin Caliber bringing the macho energy to his role and, especially, Mariah Padilla as one tough bad b**** whom I would have loved to have seen more of in the movie. This is a popcorn movie that is fun and melodramatic in the right amounts.

Bang Band Betty has a fun and all around cast and supports each other. With characters that find tehmselves rediscovering who they are. And how they lead to moments of betrayal and loyalty amonsgt each other.

Driven with motives that bring events leading up to new stages. Antagonists reveal more than it seems with corner moments of suspense.

The action has very well round choreography and elevates contact of fights and perfect timing of action.

The setting of scenes and DP work and Directing brings the best in the actors performances. And making the film enjoyable to watch and see the story move in excellence of syncrony achievements.

Very fun to watch and see soemthing action pack again in movies!
