Spoonixel Amateur movie with Big budget

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

gridoon2018 Usually when you see a video / DVD cover with a picture of a well-known star but a title that you don't recognize, it's a movie made early in their careers before they got famous which gets re-released to capitalize on their current fame, even if sometimes they only play a small part in it. Well, at least in the case of "Carlita's Secret" the cover doesn't lie: Eva Longoria IS the main star of this movie. The script (co-written by three people who have barely worked on anything else) is a complete mess (lamest part: after being witness to a club shootout at a club that results in a cop's death, Carlita (Longoria) changes her name and after a few years no one recognizes her, despite the facts that she looks EXACTLY the same, and she even works as a dancer at the same club!), most of the male characters can barely complete a sentence without the word "f**k" in one of its variations, and what little action there is is amateurish at best, but the film does tick off many of the right Eva Longoria boxes: she dances seductively, she kisses another woman, she wears a bikini, she fires a gun, etc. Plus, her co-star Alejandra Gutierrez (a Playboy Playmate) is a total knockout as well. So not all is lost. ** out of 4.

truefilmfact I saw the movie and spoke to one of the cast members here in LA.It could have been a five star movie if the producer and executive producers would have allowed the director to fully shoot and edit the film as he had envisioned it.The original script was very week when it was given to the director. But the director made it work even though the producers forced him to cut pages and shoot important scenes under an hour. I think all cast members including the director did an outstanding job under the strenuous environment that all had to go through.I was informed by a cast member that the director also functioned as the director of photography for the first week of production and did all the hand-held camera work for the entire film and there is evidence to prove it and yet the producers neglected to give the director co-DP and/or camera operator credit on the final release film. This cast member also told me that the director was willing to edit the film at no cost to the production company but the producers denied him the privilege to edit his film.Also, the use of fowl language gangster rap music in a Latino film especially over well acted dialogue scenes between Eva Longoria and Maria Bravo is of poor taste from the producers and this definitely killed the movie for me. Carlita's Secret was fun to watch and it showed talent in the director and actors. Can't wait to see the director's next movie.

thedapp Why Why did I watch this movie? Well, during the past weekend I was hanging out at my friends house and he wanted to watch this movie because of the lead actress. I wasn't excited to see it, nor was anyone, but we had nothing better to do.How bad is it? Sound - 0/10 It's pretty bad. The sound volumes are very annoying and there is a constant barrage of wind in the background. The music overpowers the dialog in almost every scene. Plus the gun shots sound like popping plastic bags. Music - 0/10 Very lame background music. Sounds sort of like cheap porno music, yet there's no naked girls. Plus there's this one rap song that repeats the word "mutha-f-cka" that plays in almost every scene. Durring one instance, it was on a loop for 12 minutes.Girls - 4/10 It didn't really do anything for me, nothing to rave about.Action - 3/10 I'll give it 3 more action points than it deserves. The gun scenes in this movie are hilarious... Comedy - 6/10 It's a very funny movie because of how bad it is. I love the bar line where the cop goes up to a girl and says "Hey sweetie, can I buy you an orgasm" and then he lays his hand on another girls butt cheek... Classic.Overall - 1/10 Please don't see this movie. Life is too short to waste.

LamontSmith Don't get me wrong. I love independent films. But that is not what this was.This was a travesty of film-making. The director must have quit halfway through the film. Here's my biggest beef with this "movie". THE MUSIC. Did the producers owe a debt to some local rappers because the soundtrack is so bad that it's actually funny. Whether the scene is sad or serious or funny, it's the same horrible rap music.The plot is ridiculous, the set design was non-existent, the dialogue was enough to put a baby to sleep. They literally walked out of jail with not so much as a chase scene. Horrible.If Eva Longoria wasn't in this monstrosity and my curiosity to see her wasn't prickled, they would give copies of this away at the local shooting range for target practice.Horrible. I gave it a two only because of Eva.
