This is an adaptation of a long running Anime. The lead characters are two "chalk and cheese" policewomen in Tokyo. Natsumi is the tearaway Tomboy while Miyuki is calm and efficient. Of course, they clash at first then become friends. The anime was a combination of action with a lot of knockabout fun.
It is a bit of fun and about as gritty as Tom and Jerry. One of the male leads is played by a former Basketball star and a villain is played by a WWE wrestler from the US. That is about the level of acting.
The action is limited by the budget and some of Natsumi's anime abilities are not used ( such as using her feet to slow the car! ). On this point it must be pointed out that the fighting is truly unconvincing. Our two tiny policewomen do unconvincing air kicks in the vicinity of villains, who then go down like Jurgen Klinsmann.
One for the fans of the anime only.
