Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
... View Morean ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreActress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
... View MoreI am a native of Northern New Mexico and I am familiar with the writers, actors and extras in this movie, so I really wanted to like it. My rating of this movie is a 3, because I really didn't get drawn in like I would have liked to. The story line was confusing as to what exactly happened to make Whitey do the things he was doing and I was never really convinced what role his family played (drug dealing was the assumption). The writers stayed as true to their roots of Northern NM as they could, but I believe this was to their detriment because the targeted demographic seemed to be too focused on the filming location. The technical production of this movie was good and the main actors were good as well, but I was just let down by the overall flow in how the story was written. I think Diego is onto something and is a talented artist, and I just hope he doesn't give up on his new craft of movie making.Worth watching, but was hoping for more from the writers.
... View MoreBLAZE YOU OUT is a handsome first feature by directors Mateo Frazier and Diego Joaquin Lopez and their talented cast and crew. Set in northern New Mexico, the film is a masterful tapestry of stunning landscapes and human drama. Life would be normal in this Latino and Native American town except for the evil - a cunning drug-dealing matriarch (Elizabeth Pena) and her seductively twisted son, Whitey (brilliantly portrayed by Mark Adair-Rios). But they go too far when Whitey doggedly pursues Alicia (Melissa Cordero), a witness to one of his murders. With ferocious determination, Alicia's sister, Lupe (portrayed by the talented Veronica Diaz-Carranza) recruits her friends who invoke their own courage and mystical forces to save themselves and their cultures from extinction. Superb cinematography and editing, visually rich lighting -- huge production value. Well done.
... View MoreThis movie ROCKED!! I enjoyed everything about it....the music, the nice rides, the bad guys that you love to hate, the breathtaking landscapes and cool artwork in the background, but most of all I loved the story! I was on the edge of my seat, waiting to see what happened next. I thought it was extremely well written and the actors did an amazing job portraying their roles. The characters were well developed and believable. Great to see strong female Hispanic and Native Americans figures in a film! The villains were well played too! I loved the dialogue and the scenery. The more I watch it, the more I like it. We need more movies like this. Blaze You Out is a MUST see and a definite favorite of mine already. I would absolutely recommend this flick.
... View MoreWell, I apologize in advance to those of you like myself who wasted time watching this god awful movie. Most, if not all of the movie, made no sense. Whoever wrote this script should seek another profession. This movie was well advertised, but man was I disappointed. I really felt that this movie would actually be worth watching. Well, there's a couple of bucks from the red box which I will never get back.Where do I begin, the two women that played sisters couldn't act at all. They probably could of casted some better looking women who could of acted as bad as these two did, just saying. The bad guy in this movie which I thought was the middle eastern dude from 40 year virgin acted terrible. This movie had a sex scene in it, which I couldn't understand why. This movie had actors trying to either play native Americans or Mexicans, I had no idea I was so confused. Also, the individuals in this movie had jobs. They were either tattoo artists, sculptures or painters which brought nothing to this movie. This movie had decent visual effects, but was really over shadowed by how the movie was as a whole to include the poor acting and total confusion throughout this film. This movie is not even a B-rate movie, it's just terrible.The only bright spot which was small, was the music. Probably would look into snatching up the music CD, but that's it. Do not watch this movie, not even if your paying money into the red box, that's money you could use buying food from McDonald's dollar menu.
