KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

ThiefHott Too much of everything

Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

christopher-underwood I think it is better to see this as the first in a series (of five?) rather than a sequel to Naked Killer. Whilst having been made with much the same squad this a very different film and has led many to see it who wouldn't otherwise, hence the surprisingly low average core. This truly is a rape comedy and therein lies another problem, understandably for some viewers. Oh and the 'angel' of the title refers, I believe, to the mask worn at the start. Anyway despite or because of all that I love it and if you like sleazy cat3 films, you will too. Jaw dropping stuff all the way with lovely girls, fast action and sex, nudity and of course rape barely without pause. Even the brief police investigations and the court scenes are amusing. Not for everybody but what is?

gridoon The "sequel" to the cult Hong Kong hit "Naked Killer" (which, unfortunately, I have not seen yet) is, according to all sources, a much different film. Not the best way to get acquainted with modern Hong Kong cinema, but a fair enough ride for more seasoned fans. Meandering and unpleasant at times, with the usual uneasy Hong Kong mix of different tones, but technically well-made; Chingmy Yau's charming presence and Simon Yam's good performance make up for a lot of other deficiencies. Warning: the DVD subtitling is OUTRAGEOUSLY bad; not even eight-year-old kids make so many grammatical and spelling errors in each written sentence. (**1/2)

Eegah Guy Advertised in some places as a sequel to NAKED KILLER, this is a much different film in style and tone but using some of the same principal cast members. NAKED KILLER had a joyful exuberance in its blackly comic tale of rival lesbian hitwomen. RAPED BY AN ANGEL is a much more grim tale of male/female relations both tender and brutal. In typical Hong Kong film fashion, the cute scenes of Yau and Yam dating are intercut with the brutality of prolonged rape in a parallel story. Like I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE, the multitude of violent rape scenes make this a repellent film viewing experience while also being fascinating in its shameless exploitation of rape as entertainment, despite the use of comic relief to make this more acceptable to a wider audience. While never eroticized, what this ultimately does is trivializes the act. The film is undeniably effective but just don't expect another NAKED KILLER even though Chingmy Yau gets to play another tough chick character. Well cast and slickly-lensed, this is not a film to watch on a first date.

paul-195 sleazy film, very cheaply made. beware: the film is notorious for it's graphic sex/rape scenes, which are CUT OUT on the english release on the "made in hong kong" label.
