Editorial Reviews

A statue of The Virgin has been stolen, and the girls of Police Branch 82 are on the case! When the thief offers them a cut of the ten million to join him, their response is rather pointed - like a knife in the back. Then again, their methods usually lack a certain subtlety. Shooting through a maze of civilians isn't exactly a maxim of law-enforcement handbooks. Neither is their combination of high heels and hair triggers, but as long as they keep the sizzle in their stakeouts, no one will question their results. Handcuffs aren't just for justice anymore.

At the opening of this movie there is reference to Christmas time. I'd suggest to fans of this genre who still have Christmas money on hand..buy it! I really enjoyed Police Branch 82 upon buying it 3 years ago and still enjoy watching it now. PB82 is the kind of movie that will not be tossed in a heap of "got tired of these" videos. The clothes, the lighting and overall appearance of the movie make it great to watch. The women are really attractive too! Put the kids to bed before watching this one as there are unrated type scenes in it.

Being a big fan of Asian cinema and Harumi Inoue it is no surprise that I found this film as enjoyable as I did. However I what is surprising is why I like it. Yes there is the great John Woo action/directing I have loved for 10+ years, yes there are plenty of women showing off there bodies, great villains, awesome visuals and silly humor. The reason this film is high on my list, and Harumi Inoue helps, was the characters and plot. The ying and yang cops added to an already fantastic script. They also deviated from the normal dirty harry/partner cop movie with some neat little twists. They also treated Harumi Inoue character with great respect. She wears some amazing dress that give her a sexy style (WOW), she never gets even semi-nude. The production of a dubbed movie, which I am against, was perfect. Yes this is no citizen Cane or Woo's killers. but I could not think of anything better to watch on a lazy Sunday with a beer in hand.
