Babes with Blades

This film has decent simple fight and keeps you watching them. The score/sound is to loud during dialogue all throughout the movie. This apocalyptic movie is to clean for its genre and the actors are both good and bad. You make the call but you will see. The camera work is a lot of handheld, which makes the movie not enjoyable to watch. Especially during simple steady shots and the editting should of used longer shots etc. The main character is good at the her physical parts and the story is not original and no major feeling of caring about the characters. This would be great back in the 80s, but with todays technology and advances in independent films. It is a good effort. With a better backstory and plot the movie would have been better and longer.

Low budget but one of the better low budget films in our opinion and we watch a lot of low budget films. It is choreographed pretty well, better than the movie"Battalion," and way better than "Viking Siege" & a whole lot better than "Killing of the sacred deer" was choreographed. A way better plot and acting than the other low budget movies I mentioned. We watch a lot of movies in general and it includes low budget as well as high budget movies. I review them for their acting, plot, how the lines were said with feeling behind them or where they like robotic with no acting when they said their lines. Did the lines sound natural or robotic to better explain it. This movie maybe low budget but doesn't sound like it is the acting is very good and not robotic like low budget movie "Killing of the sacred deer" was where they said their line but there was no feeling or real acting behind what they were saying so it wasn't natural looking what so ever. Low budget films can be just as good as the high budget films when reviewing them look at them for their acting, and plot mainly and if they were any good.

I really loved the martial art choreography. Cecily, according to the birthdate was 41 when she made this movie, she directed, produced, and I guess wrote it. I found it mesmerizing although some of the lines were a bit corny. Cecily, Great job!

I like this movie. For once they show strong women warriors without all the T & A. It kind of reads like a graphic novel. Has some gore (come on, what's a sword fight without blood?), bit nothing too gross. If you like strong women and swords, you will like this movie.

My quick rating - 3,9/10. For a really hockey b-budget flick, this one does have its moments. Mainly Azura (Cecilia Fay) who does have some pretty good martial arts skills it seems. The fight scenes do tend to show off her talent, unfortunately the story itself, or the acting doesn't lend to much more. Instead this movie turns into a woman being taken prisoner in a post-apocalyptic future world by the evil, and horribly acted....well, he doesn't have a name. There imprisoned, she must fight to the death for a bunch of rich types in an arena, which resembles the warehouse where one of the film makers must work to earn his daily pay. Still, a very valiant attempt using some creative special effects that were 80s quality. Kudos for the effort, just take Fay, and give her a real script and you might have something.
