Chicago TribuneMichael Phillips
Ladron plays like a telenovela without the melodrama. The characters are brightly drawn archetypes, and the humor's very broad. But the tone is nice and brash. Read full review

USA TodayClaudia Puig
There's a new heist film in town that follows the conventions of the genre and then adds a couple of fresh and endearing twists. Read full review

Miami HeraldPeter Debruge
There's nothing so artistic about it as to attract the same art-house crowd that braved subtitles to discover "Nine Queens," and yet, it's professional enough that Spanish speakers will be glad to have a heist movie on par with "Rush Hour 3" or "The Pacifier" made in their native tongue.
