Where do I start?! The terrible writing. The terrible story. The terrible acting and The terrible direction. Only a simpleton would be entertained by this ...movie, if you could call it one? This director stays making D-Movies. From the stupidity of "Bearry" to the disaster known as "Something in the Woods", one has to ask, how in the hell does this guy keep making films?

How does a lawyer takes the law into her own hands and dishes out justice? How is said attorney not know of her supposed boyfriend's illegal activity? Who the hell is this Ray character? Why does Ray's daughter flip-flop so damn much? The entire cast needs acting lesson! Oh yeah! What's with the CGI explosions?

Again, only an imbecile, a simple minded idiot who doesn't know one iota about movies inside and out, will be entertained by this pass poor movie.

Bang Bang Betty is an interesting action/suspense/drama with a very strong and fascinating female protagonist. Kiara, the main character, is a veteran and a lawyer, and an all around cool woman. Kakra Nunoo-Brown gives a fantastic performance as Kiara Sommers, and really makes the audience root for her in her quest. I thought the filming locations were excellent, very cinematic and interesting. The cinematography was also excellent, along with some pretty epic drone shots of the landscapes. The gun shootouts were really well done and I thought the special effects were solid, especially the blood.

Overall, it's a fun ride, but there are some glaring flaws that should be ironed out with the director's next one.

There is some awkwardly long takes where characters are just standing around, the most glaring one being the fight between Valerie and Matthew at the end. It looks like she does something to his arm, then just stands around and waits for him to fight again, and he's all better. Maybe there was a in between cut that had him fix his arm or something?

Acting wise, about three characters are great, the rest are questionable at best. Val, Kiara, and Matthew have the strongest performances, the remainder are good to "first day acting" performances.

The fights are by far the strongest part of this! Highlights include Kiara fight between two officers that pull her over and Valerie and Matthew's fight (save for the aforementioned break in action). The gunplay is all right, it looks like a lot of the folks didn't quite know how to hold the weapons, but most of them reacted fairly well. I'm betting we were able to get a stunt team to do a lot of the work, but had to ask some of the actors who hadn't practiced before to participate later on.

It's great for a bee movie, and you can tell there are great ideas and great performances in here, now it's just up to the team to polish all of it up and make it awesome for the next one!
