World War II: Allied Command learns that in 60 days three Japanese generals and an admiral party at a bordello on a tiny Philippine island. It's fortified and hard to attack, so a creative, cynical major gets the assignment to figure something else. With the help of Paco, a Filipino guerrilla leader, the major devises a plan to put four women assassins among the prostitutes. He must recruit and train them, convince his general that an unarmed woman can best a man, and get them on the island. The rest is up to them. An imprisoned killer, a nurse with a fatal disease, a chippie on the lamb from the mob, and a Filipina whom the Japanese assaulted are his team. Can they do it? Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com>
I bought this at Poundland for 50p, simply because I found the concept so amusing, and it was amusing for about 12 minutes, before it became really, really boring. By the end my brain had actually melted after staring at cheap sets, awful acting, stupid plot and joke script for 90 minutes. This is quite possibly the most awfully produced film I've ever seen, and yet I think it achieves its aims. Given that these aims seems to have entirely consisted of showing women in scanty clothing talking about sex, with about three minutes of actual action these weren't hard to fulfil, but nevertheless these were achieved, so it gets two stars, one for the catchy name and one for the low intentions it must have started with. Don't watch it.
