not as good as all the hype
... View MoreBlending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
... View MoreIt’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
... View MoreIt is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
... View More"Golden Queens Commando" it's a very entertaining and charming actionsploitation flick, its a "Dirty Dozen" rip-off but made in Taiwan, produced by Joseph Lai and directed by Yen-Ping Chu, with Godfrey Ho and Li Fu as writers, this film was as entertaining and action packed as you would have thought a movie with those names attached to it could be, it's superior to most of Godfrey Ho's work, which this film its often compared to.The best part of the film are the action scenes, they are fun, cheesy and crazy, quite bloody and memorable, but that doesn't mean that the action scenes are the only good part about the movie, it has a very good soundtrack, sure, the music its taken from other movies, but they use it very well here in a memorable and riveting way.The characters are very interesting and set this movie apart from your average exploitation film, the film has a sense of humor to it as well, something kinda of rare in these movies.I would recommend this one for those who are looking for a crazy and entertaining actionsploitation film, lots of cool scenes and funny moments that will have you entertained.
... View MoreThe dubbing of this film deserves an honarary Oscar. From the terrible choices of English words to the insults and even the odd accents, this film has it all. The kommandant of the prison steals the show with his fearsome speeches including berating the prisoners ferociously as "all-time losers!". Add to this 7 hot Asian babes all with their own special skill and a requisite Fat guy and... voila a cinematic tour de force. Lately this movie has been packaged as a Jackie Chan movie. This is a shameless sales pitch as Chan only has a small part in it. Nevertheless a true work of genius to be savoured.
... View MoreOne of the most humorous movies I have viewed for sometime. The pace was just right to keep the laughs coming.......the translation was great.
... View MoreOne of the best worse movie I've ever seen.....didn't stop laughing once.It was like a cross between "The Dirty Dozen" (except it is with seven women) and "Enter the Dragon". The translation into English is what made it so great.
