| This movie was a nitty, gritty crime tale about female cops who are pushed too far and are forced to go beyond the law to take down a nefarious crime lord. At first, I didn't think this film would be too good, but I ended up changing my tune when I saw how great the combat sequences were. But that wasn't the only thing that caught my eye. The acting talents of Carrie Ng, Sharon Yeung and Kara Hui were really amazing!
The one thing that had me on the edge of my seat and rooting for these beauties to win, was the torture that two of them had to go through. Carrie Ng's character gets violated by her former triad lover (Kenneth Tsang in his most villainous performance) in an attempt to free her gambling addicted husband (also an officer) from a gambling debt. And when her husband is killed and Sharon is framed for the murder, Kara must do everything in her power to find Sharon and clear her name. Sharon's character Ida is even doped up on heroin at the hands of evil Michiko Nishiwaki, who proves that she can be dangerous with just a menacing stare.
The things that these women are put through is heartbreaking and painful to watch, but none the less, you have to bear with it as they eventually try to find a way to turn the tables on their captors. Buy this movie today and I guarantee, you won't be disappointed! |
