If you know B movies then the title of my review should tell you everything you need to know. All of these films were either directed or produced by Andy Sidaris. These films all feature dead pan serious delivery while demonstrating some of the most ridiculous and over the top plots, dialogue and action. You must not under any circumstances attempt to take these films seriously or elicit any deep meaning from them. You'll just strain yourself. These are B movies made for fun. If you can let yourself go with the flow, you'll find yourself having a good time with this collection.
Here's what your green buys you.
THE DALLAS CONNECTION: I don't know what the Connection is, I'm not really sure it's even mentioned in the movie. But a team of gorgeous assassins is wiping out a group of scientists who possess some dangerous secret. Only one scientist remains and it's up to Samantha Phillips and her fellow agents to save them. There are some wacky death scenes, and a nice "Basic Instinct" style beginning which features the leader of the murderous trio, Julie Strain.
DAY OF THE WARRIOR: The Legion to Ensure Total Harmony and Law (L.E.T.H.A.L.) is hunting an evil genius known as The Warrior. Warrior's turn ons include diamond smuggling, porn and art theft. Best line in the movie is spoken by Julie Strain's character Willow Black;"I worked at Disneyland. I was one of the rides." Gerald Okamura plays a martial arts master named Fu. You will recognize him from Big Trouble in Little China, among many other roles.
DO OR DIE: This is the silliest movie in the Sidaris oeuvre. You've got Mr.Miyagi as an Asian criminal mastermind and Eric Estrada...period. Miyagi sends several teams of assassins after our fair ladies and R rated hijinx ensue. The colorful assassins remind me of the killers sent after Peter Sellers in The Pink Panther Strikes Again.
ENEMY GOLD: Now this is a great one! Evil assassins hassle our heroes whilst they're looking for Quantrill's Lost Civil War gold! There are historical flashbacks and characters named Jewel Panther and Becky Midnight. What's not to like?
FIT TO KILL: There's something going on here about a rare missing Russian diamond, but once you see Julie Strain working out on a balcony you'll forget about things like "Plot". For extra fun though there's a cool helicopter battle.
GUNS: Is this a sexy feminist comedy or a feminist sex comedy? I dunno that's too much thinkin' for me. It's also got Erik Estrada, Danny Trejo, oil wrestling and hand grenades. Sounds like a great week in Vegas.
HARD HUNTED: You can't spell PLOT without a T and an A....well... Anyway we have another of Andy Sidaris' version of Charlie's Angels for Men. The girls need to track down a nuclear detonator or blah-ditty-blah-blah-blah.
HARD TICKET TO HAWAII: The evil Dr. Chang plans on destroying the economy of Hawaii and only super-agents Donna and Taryn and their pet mutant snake can stop him. This cultural and intellectual extravaganza features blow up dolls, razor tipped Frisbees and skate-boarding thugs.
MALIBU EXPRESS: This is sort of a down home Burt Reynolds type movie except it happens at the beach, and stars an 80's porn star/surfer dude, Sybil Danning and a red Delorean.
PICASSO TRIGGER: A cool title but probably one of the least of Sidaris' films. A bad guy tries to ice all the agents involved in his brother's death.
SAVAGE BEACH: Smoking hot Agents Donna and Taryn wander around a humid jungle in tiny tops looking for lost treasure. They run into an old Japanese soldier who still thinks WW2 is going on and a bunch of baddies also looking for the treasure. Plenty of action but for me not quite enough wacky humor.
RETURN TO SAVAGE BEACH: The Ladies of LETHAL try to recover a lost treasure before a hoard of bad guys can snag it. This one has plenty of skimpy outfits, hot actresses, bad dialogue and explosions but it's not as wacky or fun as many of Sidaris' earlier films.

Though the picture quality leaves a lot to be desired, this set is a steal considering the number of movies you get plus the bonus content. Each film is presented in the same 4:3 aspect ratio you saw them on Cinemax back in the day and they spread the movies over three discs (two movies on each side). Chapter selections are available, and the bonus content for each can be accessed by going to the chapter menu and clicking the up button on the remote until the woman's legs light up! Right leg is either a videotaped intro from the late Sidaris himself (along with Julie Strain, who shows her breasts in each segment) or an interview with Andy and one of the actresses (several of these are from "Drive In Theater" and are hosted by Joe Bob Briggs). Clicking over to the woman's left leg will access the original trailer for the movie. Not the lowest quality I've seen in a set like this but certainly less than average for Mill Creek, this one is still worth the price for volume of material and bonus features.

from my review at insidepulse:
Andy Sidaris innovated entertainment as a director for ABC's sports broadcasts. He made the call to let the cameras linger on cheerleaders and women in the crowd during Monday Night Football and Wide World of Sports. He understood that home viewers didn't need to constantly see sweaty players and screaming coaches. They appreciated a little beauty mixed in with the man action. He took this simple formula from the stadiums and made it the focus of his brand of cinema. His dozen films featured on Girls, Guns and G-Strings don't stray from his formula of international espionage, hunky guys, Playboy Playmates, Penthouse Pets, gun play and titles that sound like Mickey Spillane novels. If the story got slow, he excited the screen by having his stars make love, shower or blow stuff up.
Sidaris made two films in the `70s that didn't have the impact of his '80s and `90s output. What was the difference? His hot period coincided with the VHS era. A low budget filmmaker could do well selling cassettes across the country to mom and pop stores instead of pursuing the theatrical dream. He did best with stores that wanted to stock sexy films that weren't classified as hardcore adult action. He produced just enough sizzle with his cast to excite customers without it turning X-rated. It should be noted that the films are not merely sexist entertainment about getting women naked. Sidaris does his best to balance the flesh with undressed hunks. Sex sells and Sidaris wanted costumers of both genders renting his films. Home video success booked the films on pay movie channels for their late night programming. Odds are high that if you were up at 3 a.m. in the early `90s, you caught one of his films on Showtime.
Malibu Express (1987 - 101 minutes) lets Darby Hinton (Firecracker) play a private detective with a gun as big as his mustache. He gets hired to uncover the killer of Contessa Luciana's husband. There's plenty of action, fire power and flesh in the intrigue. He insures video sales with Sybil Danning (The Howling II) cast as the Contessa. Hard Ticket to Hawaii (1987 - 96 minutes) features the first of Sidaris' muses in the form of Playmate Dona Speir (Miss March, 1984). She appeared in seven Sidaris movies and always played a character named Donna. This must have been confusing since her real name is Dona. Hope Marie Carlton (Miss July, 1985) is her partner. Her character's named Taryn. The two playmates are undercover operatives that nab diamonds bound for a drug lord in Hawaii. He wants his jewels back from them. Picasso Trigger (1988 - 98 minutes) kills off a top level agent with Picasso Trigger as his codename. Donna and Taryn are on the job to get revenge. It introduces Roberta Vasquez (Miss November, 1984) to the acting troupe. The movie received the ultimate honor by inspiring the naming of Raleigh band Picasso Trigger in the `90s.
Savage Beach (1990 - 94 minutes) puts Dona and Hope back on Hawaii as agents. They get tangled up in vaccines and Japanese gold. The major guest star is adult superstar Teri Weigel (Miss April, 1986). Guns (1990 - 96 minutes) dazzles in major star power with Erik Estrada (CHiPs, Chuck McCann (Far-Out Space Nuts), Phyllis Davis (VEGA$) and Danny Trejo (Machete). Dona teams up with Roberta to stop a South American gun runner based in Hawaii. Devin DeVasquez (Miss June, 1985) now joins in the Playmate reunion with Cynthia Brimhall (Miss October, 1985). Erik Estrada returns for Do or Die (1991 - 97 minutes) and brings along Pat Morita (The Karate Kid). The former Mister Miyagi plays a diabolical Asian crime boss that's hired hitmen to take out Dona and Roberta. Pandora Peaks puts her talents to work on the screen. Hard Hunted (1992 - 97 minutes) makes the girls go to the Mideast to recover a nuclear trigger. Aren't you happy that the fate of the world is being handled by Playmates? Fit to Kill (1993 - 94 minutes) marks the arrival of Julie Strain (Penthouse Pet of the Year 1993) into the Sidaris universe. The tall beauty plays evil as she helps steal a Russian diamond. Dona and Roberta hunt her down. This film marked the end of Dona's run as Donna. Do you think she gets upset when a fan calls her Donna?
While Sidaris didn't make family films, he made films with his family. His wife Arlene Sidaris was his producer. His son Drew Sidaris served as second assistant director on six of his movies. He also worked as 2nd AD on The A-Team, The Fall Guy and The Dukes of Hazzard. Drew got his chance to sit in the director's chair for two films that mom and dad produced. Enemy Gold (1993 - 92 minutes) went casting for new female leads using old Playboy magazines. Suzi Simpson (Miss January, 1992) and Tai Collins (appeared in Playboy after an affair with Senator Chuck Robb). They're being chased by Julie Strain as they hunt for lost Civil War gold. The Dallas Connection (1994 - 94 minutes) deals with a computer chip. But it's all about ladies with guns that go bang. New faces from old pages include Sam Phillips (Pet of the Month June, 1993) and Julie K. Smith (Pet of the Month February, 1993) and Wendy Hamilton (Miss December, 1991). Andy Sidaris returned to the helm for his film two films about the Legion to Ensure Total Harmony and Law (L.E.T.H.A.L.). Day of the Warrior (1996 - 97 minutes) stars Raye Hollitt best known as Zap on American Gladiators. The agents are out find the person that has cracked their secret database. Return to Savage Beach (1998 - 98 minutes) makes the L.E.T.H.A.L. ladies hunt down a lost computer disc. They should update this to a flashdrive.
They don't teach Andy Sidaris at expensive film schools. He ought to be a course like Hitchcock, Scorsese or Tarantino or Kubrick. He was a man with vision and a sense of audience. His independent carnal vision makes him part of a brotherhood that includes Russ Meyer and Radley Metzger. He made a dozen movies that entertained millions during the golden age of VHS. When he passed away in 2007, VCRs blinked 12:00 a.m. in his honor. Girls, Guns and G-Strings is his legacy in a boxset.
