Immensely entertaining cheapo action thriller with personal fave Cynthia Khan as a mainlander police captain who goes undercover to destroy a Chinese-Phillipines-Hong Kong drug and counterfeiting racket. (Long sentence: you can breathe now.) Jaunty HK cop Yuen Biao is assigned her partner, and once they penetrate the gang, it's nothing but guns, fist-fights, chases, and explosions. Full of irresistible B-movie details (a hound rotating in a Phillipines restaurant's rotisserie window, a police van with a taped-on POLICE label, an affluent drug lord being chauffered in a shiny Toyota Corolla, catfights in a women's prison, a muscular U.S. commando who crushes human heads in his bare hands). The film's tastefully obscure title is just a bonus.

(3/4)
