Corey Yuen directs Michelle Yeoh, Cynthia Rothrock and John Sham in this Hong Kong martial arts movie where two female cops team up to catch a gang of incompetent petty thieves who are in too deep with the big villains.

An absolute blast when it is focusing on Yeoh and / or Rothrock. Our Michelle gets a vibrant cold open where a flasher sting operation mutates into thrilling Dirty Harry inspired shotgun carnage in the streets. Rothrock has us at hello by performing a kick up over the back of her own shoulders that bends the laws of physics. The comedy subplot involving the bumbling crims is the curse of this genre. These longueurs are too broad and diverts us away from the buddy cop powerhouse we bought the Blu Ray for.
