Storyline

This action story takes place in Shanghai, China where Gilda, a stunning blonde 'femme Nikita' is commissioned to take out an important Lebanese official. As a professional killer, her real identity is kept secret. Her boss has arranged a new name and profession for her in Shanghai as the new manager of an information technology company. She takes up residence in a beautiful condo where she gets to know her neighbor, Lin, a beautiful Chinese girl who turns out to be a high-class call girl. Their friendship develops as they help one another along the way as they are betrayed by their hearts for men who turn out to be scoundrels.

User Reviews

Tiger is most dangerous when is wo...men .

Italian director, Hungarian main actress, pretty bad English (undubbed).

Filmed in Shanghai mostly, and some shots of city are best part of this 'creation'.

Story doesn't deserve any attention: it is just stolen from some other, higher grade movies (this should be some D-grade).

So, we have attractive female assassin, another attractive female, some love, some sex/nudity, some twist, shooting and extremely miserable fight scenes - because main actress has no clue about kung fu, all scenes were cut to milliseconds and shot from very close - to see only hand (leg) and target of punch - pih...

Spoiler alert: ! (sic)

End is as original as whole movie: happy end at pool under bright sun :-)
