(Avg. 3.5)Bandidas is a 2006 Western comedy film starring Penélope Cruz and Salma Hayek, edited, produced and directed by Norwegian directors Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg. It tells the tale of two very different women in turn-of-the-century Mexico who become a bank robbing duo in an effort to combat a ruthless enforcer terrorising their town. This is the first movie that Cruz and Hayek have starred in together. It was a co-production between France, the United States and Mexico. Despite the lackluster reception, it gained a cult following due to the film's lead actresses Cruz and Hayek.
