OPERATION PINK SQUAD (Chinese name meaning something like ‘Mighty Women‘) starts out as a comedy about a group of undercover female police women, Sandra Ng, Elsie Chan, Ann Bridgewater and Suki Kwan dealing with a lot of sexist jokes etc. Not much of an original concept, but then it changes to non-stop action with a serious story unfolding. But even that’s still nothing special. Ng Man Tat is the bad guy in this one, and plays his gangster role well. Sandra Ng as always helps keep the comedy going, and Ann Bridgewater does a lot of physical fighting, something she does not always do.

All in all, nothing special, but was one of the first action movies back in the 80’s I saw that caught my attention, but nothing much more than an average HK police story. One of the funniest moments from Sandra Ng is when she is trapped in the room listening to rather loud music (it’s worth seeing to understand!). Don’t bother with Operation Pink Squad II though, not if you like this genre, because it turns stupid with ghost and stuff, and is not really related to this movie at all.

Only available on VCD, unless it was released on DVD under another name (like the Operation Pink Squad II was given)

Rating: 3/5
