Demented nonsense
29 October 2021
Well, here we go again! This is yet another Hong Kong martial arts effort which is what it is, and in this case that means a movie with a plot which seemed to make no sense whatsoever! Seriously, this is liable to induce mild nausea on you if you try to follow it. It seems to be about a woman who seeks vengeance on three men who raped her but then there is a diamond smuggling thing going on and then there are also some ninjas kicking about who seem like they are from a different film entirely. You know the latter are ninjas as they wear bandanas with 'ninja' written on them - isn't that always the way? They get involved in some fight scenes so over the top they are worth a chuckle or two and they seem to be able to disappear at will (somehow). The soundtrack is Hong Kong style all the way (i.e. Absolutely no recognition of anything poncey like western copyright laws), to this end we have a score compromising of choice cuts from Kraftwerk, Pink Floyd and Tangerine Dream (oh what production values this film must have). Needless to say, its all severe idiocy, although if you have a tolerance for this kind of thing you may enjoy this demented chopsocky exercise in biscuit-taking nonsense. Venture at your own peril I would say though.
