Naked Killer

Summary: 'Naked Killer' FOX release on DVD
Review: This is a great disc for the price, however, it has been trimmed of some violence and sexuality. If you want this film at full strength, find the Tai Seng release.

Summary: Wild and Sexy Killer Chicks!
Review: This is certainly one of the more wild Hong Kong action films I've seen in awhile. The action is cool, the women are sexy and the entertainment value is high. A genre piece to be sure, but it works. If you have any problems with women using their feminine wiles to get what they want, as well as a considerable amount of female-female violence, then you should probably run screaming from this film. Thoughly disreputable fun.

Summary: Beeping?
Review: This is not a bad film, but the Cantonese audio track is messed up. I mean like what's going on? It contains annoying annoying annoying beeping when the actors talk about something I guess is too R-rated or whatever, but the subtitles reveal it. Plus it's in Cantonese so like we and the kids don't understand it anyway!!!!! But what gives with the beeping? This is just pathetic. I'm referring to the exchange between the nerdy cop and the police chief or whatever at the crime scene towards the beginning. I've never heard anyone mention this. Is this just me?

Summary: Beeping?
Review: This movie is not totally irredeemable. First off, I'd get rid of the custom designer, a four year old girl can dress her Ken and Barbies better than the dressers of this movie. Along with the custom designer,I would also chuck the milliner and the screnwriter. Most importantly, I would give Carrie Ng more to do than appear towards the end. She is the only believable character and worth seeing. Chingmy is very pretty, but can get annoying but not as much as Simon Yam. I felt like jumping in the screen with a scissor and giving him a proper haircut, among other things. And why get in the pool with body suits on? If you didn't want your actors to be naked in the pool, then they should have been doing their stunts somewhere else, like the roof or on the fences. These are the areas where creativity lacked and lagged. I've always marveled at Hong Kong cinemas for their imaginative interpretations of what an action movie is suppose to be, but this on falls a little short. I did like Wai Yui as granny Les Killer, but it got a little too disturbing when she started groping the junior assassin in training. Wai Yui is quit good in this movie though. She gave the usual shoot out in the garage a new twist. Your money is not completely wasted, there are some high flying fight scenes, and some really funny moments, but laughable ones too. I'd say, Rent it before you buy it. Owning it means watching it a couple of times, shelving it away and when you get in a quirky mood, pop it in your DVD.

Summary: This Movie Was Wak!
Review: This movie sucked. It was a pointless film to start with, and the DVD just made it worse. I would very strongly discourage anyone from buying or even viewing this horrid film. Although this is only my opinion, if you are looking for a good action or thriller, I would suggest any of the "Die Hard" films.

Summary: Honest review
Review: This movie was just total junk. Sammo Tung is ugly...and the movie is so implausible, but has nothing to redeem itself in the way of interesting dialogue.

Summary: For Discening Viewers Who Like Sex & Violence
Review: What do you get when you mix together a bunch of very hot (yeeooww!) lesbian hit ladies. A great entry point for the uninitiated in the world of subtitled Hong Kong flicks. Yea, I love Fellini, Polanski, Welles, Hitchcock...all the great directors....love their stuff. But for a film that is just soooo damn sexy (the female cast is incredible, I wanted them to kill me!) you can't go past this all out action thrill fest. No, it's not deep, you don't get an understanding for the human condition, but you get an understanding of how sexy an action flick can be. You can well and truley keep Arnold Schwartzewhatever, I'll take Kelly Yao anyday.

Summary: Don't bother with this lame flick!!!
Review: Would give it -100 stars if I could.
I got this DVD as a present and all I can say is that it is not even worth re-gifting it!!! The story was mediocre, the acting was horrible, and the direction was haphazard. In all truth, I had put it on my wishlist 'cause most of the reviews were extremely positive. Now, I understand how not everyone is going to like everything. However, that idea does not excuse such a bad film.
There were a few things that could be considered o.k.: the costumes (wayy drag queen so, the ladies ended up looking a little too much like Barbie or Jem); the fighting (outrageous but pretty cool); the sets (totally cartoon-like).
If I had the power to turn back time, I would have liked to rent this DVD before buying it. Now I have no other option than to sell it 'cause I will never watch it again!!!
