Robotrix

I finally sat myself down to see 'Robotrix' in its entirety. Having previously skipped a few chapters already to see what it looked like, I knew what I was in for. And the time was ripe now, since I felt in the mood for it. 'Robotrix' is a pretty damn hilarious kungfu-cyborg cheese-fest with lots of nudity, rapes (robots apparently do love to rape, and the female victims don't even seem to mind it that much), over the top violence & bloodshed and incredible idiotic attempts at humor. All this in a plot that doesn't seem to make the slightest bit of sense and is unaware of the fact that a conclusion of some sort always helps to wrap things up. Pretty insane flick, crappy special effects included. I liked it. But let me remind you that it's a bad movie: 3/10... Oh wait,... I just checked its page on here. It's supposed to be a comedy??? That changes things: 7/10! Haha.

A prince from the middle east is kidnapped by a mad Japanese scientist. He manages to kill Selina, who was the prince's bodyguard. Utilizing the latest in cyborg technology, Dr. Sara (Hui Hiu Dan) transfers Selina's mind and body to a robot. Dr. Sara's assistant is Ann, played by the sexy Amy Yip, and they all try to stop this scientist and save the prince. This movie is a category 3 film, and its full of violence and nudity, especially Selina, played by the also sexy Chikako Aoyama. That this works at all is a minor miracle, but it manages to be a crude but watchable action film. Crazy things happen, but the film is not meant to be taken seriously. If you don't mind gratuitous violence and nudity, it passes the time pretty well.

Or as others have said: Robocop mixed with Andy Sidaris. And while it has been a while since I last saw a Sidaris movie, if you have seen at least one of them you can guess where this is going. Now apart from nudity (mostly female, though there is one full frontal shot of a male one) and the Science Fiction part, there is the action part. And as over the top as the nudity and the story itself is, the action tries to top that too.

No holds barred - there is a lot of violence. Almost comical at times (and referencing the Flying Guillotine from the Shaw Brothers and other crazy movies) - but it does work. Really good to say the least. There is also Martial Arts - the movie is mostly fun and games then (with violent deaths and sex added for good measure).

Unfortunately at times it does get darker - and it may have cost it a bit of a higher rating by me. There are forced sexual encounters - that really were not necessary in my view, but I reckon they wanted to up the ante. Shame for being so dark and not being able to walk the fine line from start to finish - no pun intended.

If you gave a room full of college-aged males a small budget and a film-camera, this movie is likely what they'd come up with. It has everything the hormone-addled male brain would ever need - naked female kung-fu robots.

The amount of gratuitous (ie. not integral to the story) T and A in this movie is simply spectacular, not that there's anything wrong with that. And the fact that the A's and T's being exposed just happen to belong to two of the most popular Hong Kong Category III actresses just adds to the attraction.

If Mystery Science Theatre 3000 were on HBO, this would be the movie they'd pick for the premiere episode.

Highly reccomended, provided of course the wife, kids and neighbors are safely out of the room.

Not horror as such, but science fiction / action / adult comedy, this Category III film from Hong Kong is a definite beer and snacks movie. Although it may not be to everybody's taste, it's a fun movie for the most part (as is the case with many HK films, the humour can border on the tasteless).

The basic premise of the film is that a rather fetching and sexy lady agent has her mind transferred into the body of a robot following a shooting, thus becoming the ultimate sexy super-hero. Imagine "Robocop" meets "Charlie's Angels" with an adult touch and you've got the idea! The budget's not massive (and it shows) but it's worth watching if you're in the mood for something light after a more sober movie.
