Review:

Butt kicking girl. Check. Substance? Style? Passion? Nothing. A rather dismal selection that fits the strengths (or lack thereof) of the trailer, but does very little else.

• Trailer: D

Review:

Poor production values, incessant martial arts violence, this looks very much like every other film in the comedy/fighting genre that it's hard to take seriously.

Oscar Prospects:

Very doubtful.
