Rica 3-Juvenile's Lullaby

As in the preceding two movies the juvenile delinquent named "Rica Aoki" (Rika Aoki) has been brought to a reform school and has to establish herself among her peers. The leader of the female delinquents in this reform school is known as "Tornado Oman" (Masami Souda) and in order to maintain her leadership feels that she must get Rica to recognize her authority. Naturally, Rica has no intention of following anybody's lead and because of that a fight breaks out which is eventually stopped by the guards with no clear winner being established. Not long afterward, Rica breaks out of the reform school and becomes involved with a young Amerasian girl by the name of "June" (Yoshie Ichige) which results in other problems for everyone concerned. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this third film in the "Rica Trilogy" pretty much carried the same general themes as its other two predecessors. Likewise, the fact that it followed the same standard plot, failed to address its low-budget overtones and lacked intensity, didn't particularly help this movie in any way. In short, it was pretty much the same old thing--only less entertaining. For that reason I have rated this film accordingly. Slightly below average.

plentiful action, slapstick comedy, dramatic interludes, and bellicose baguette battery!

I can strongly recommend the fiesty final instalment in this iconic, fabulously zesty girl-fight trilogy! Heroic, yet ill-fated, Rica's violent saga concludes in a suitably exhilarating fashion, once again featuring some stirring W. I. P action! With nary a dull moment, Rica 3: Juvenile's Lullaby even a propah brillo breadstick battle which proves Rica is no less deadly with common foodstuffs than her whirlwind fists! Irrepressible, kind-hearted, brave, cunning, and resilient, this sexy, street-fighting siren takes on a sex-trafficking ring, proving proficient at spearing these vile oppressors with a harpoon gun!!! Kozaburo Yoshimura's exciting feature has plentiful action, slapstick comedy, dramatic interludes, and bravura baguette battery!!! As always, Rika Aoki is never less than captivating, and composer, Jiro Takemura's bouncy soundtrack remains a highlight!
