Hustler Squad

A dirtier-minded dozen, this uproariously fun Filipino actioner clearly doesn't take itself all too seriously, but it has a higher calibre of acting that makes suspension of disbelief much less of a chore! An amicable group of hard luck women are stridently put through their militaristic paces, excitingly montaged into a sultry squad of sinewy, savage hearted scarlet women! The risque plan is to place them within a late-night soiree, swollen with Army big knobs, luridly liquidating the libidinous Japanese high command with their finely honed feminine harms! Deliciously schlocky stuff that, happily, remains consistently entertaining until the blazingly bellicose climax!

The likeable performances are uniformly excellent, making it easy to root for our scintillatingly saucy assassins sordidly essayed subterfuge! Surprisingly, for a ribald, low budget exploitation flick, the zesty dialogue and robust characterisation is distinctly above average, and any shoot 'em up starring charismatic cult hero, Vic Diaz is always time well spent! A sparky, easy on the eye cast, rousing Gung-Hoe action, and quality repartee raises Gallardo's boisterous WW2 bullet-fest above the mire of B-Movie mediocrity. 'Hustler Squad' is a righteous discovery, a bona fide Grindhouse gem that is both intentionally, and unintentionally funny!
