Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

pcernea-1 I don't understand people who give a movie like this a low rating because of a few plot holes, or because it's not the paragon of realism. If total realism and an airtight plot were the goals, these movies would lose a lot of their charm and just become the unremarkable action flicks you see so much of nowadays. This movie is a fantasy. And it eclipses many films of its martial genre precisely because it has so many and such creative fantasy elements. And hot chicks, did I mention the pretty girls?OK, if realism were the goal of this movie, the gangsters could all pull out guns and plug sweet Etsuko full of lead. Instead, we get something much more entertaining. We get a mohawked assassin who shoots darts into people's necks, a defrocked priest who shoots armor-piercing arrows out of a gun, seven Thai-boxing amazons with hairy armpits, a police agent who works as an exotic dancer and has a tattoo of a rose on her inner thigh, a karate school that chants its philosophy of mixing power and love to us for a while, and more... And did I mention the most sadistic of all villains? A hedonistic drug lord who sports a Vega-style claw on his hand, tortures Li Long by continually giving him more heroin, tortures Tina by having a gorgeous femme fatale whip her, all the while maintaining a bevy of bathing beauties that let him fondle them at will. It's not cheese, because all the fights are cool, the villains are really truly evil and sadistic. All the exaggerations are done with purpose, like in a painting of Dali.The movie maintains suspense with plenty of plot twists. In a run-of-the mill flick, Tina Long might kill Hammerhead right off the bat. Instead, he overpowers her, and kicks her off a bridge. Some of the dramatic scenes are truly poignant, right out of a Shakespeare play with terser dialogue--the brutal scene in which the old man is forced to betray his own niece, the suffering of Li Long as his sister rescues him!Not the least of what makes this movie great is the abundance of hot girls. Just when you think there's enough to keep you happy, they keep adding more. First there's Tina Long herself. Then there's the exotic dancer--right at the get-go, what more can you ask for? Then there's Emmy. Sometimes the girls even play-fight each other, and then end up hugging. All in all, I think it's safe to generalize that it's much more appealing for straight men to see hot girls kick butt, than brawny guys, and this is something that Quentin Tarantino realizes and capitalizes on.Finally, this movie is clearly anti-drug, or anti-hard-drug, but it clearly rises above propaganda like Reefer Madness, because it portrays the horror of heroin addiction in a quite realistic way. It even weaves this creatively into the film by using heroin as a torture device, a great plot device which I can't recall seeing often in movies.

dee.reid "Sister Street Fighter" is one of the best examples of the grind-house experience that Quentin Tarantino is always raving about in his movies. (For the record, I caught the original Japanese-language version with subtitles on Showtime early one morning last week, so I didn't have to worry about crappy dubbing.) The movie is a sequel/spin-off of the hugely successful "Street Fighter" films with Sonny Chiba. In Chiba's place, however, is Etsuko "Sue" Shihomi, who I must say is one of the most lethal screen vixens I've ever seen. Along with other high-kicking martial arts movie females, like Michelle Yeoh and Angela Mao (the latter of whom is best known for her role as Bruce Lee's tragic sister in "Enter the Dragon"), Sue Shihomi is not only very beautiful and very young (she was only 18 in "Sister Street Fighter"), but she is a true force to be reckoned with. Like Sonny Chiba before her, she uses a wide range of deft and lethal Karate moves that prove just that: she is a true force to be reckoned with. In "Sister Street Fighter," she plays a female Karate expert who is looking for her older brother after he goes missing while on an undercover assignment for the police involving drug trafficking between Hong Kong and Japan. That's really all there is to the plot and all you need to know. The director, Kazuhiko Yamaguchi, isn't concerned with plot very much, and instead relishes in the intensity of the well-choreographed and executed fight sequences. As I said earlier, Sue Shihomi is a true force to be reckoned with, and she doesn't merely beat up her opponents, she destroys them with every lethal Karate punch/kick combo you can imagine. Fault can be found, however, in that the director seems directly fascinated in showing off Karate, rather than the various other fighting styles on display in "Sister Street Fighter." We also have a variety of weapons styles including kama, nunchaku, sai and three-point staff in addition to the Thai national sport Muay Thai (the "Amazon Seven" women); I just think that it's a little nationalistic to feature all these styles and make it seem that Japanese styles reign supreme over everything else. And you would think that with such diversity, these fighters would be given their due in their fight sequences but they're often defeated too quickly and easily, which if they'd been given their due would have allowed for some much-needed diversity in the fight scenes. But it's a minor annoyance, over all. Although she's not as intense as Sonny Chiba (he does have a small part as a Karate master who helps the Sister out) before her, I recognized in Sue Shihomi the makings of a true star and someone who definitely had some sort of crossover appeal. It's a shame that it seems that she quit making movies and decided to settle down with a family. Anyway, I'm giving the Sister in "Sister Street Fighter" her due; she's a beauty, and a kick - and that is one lethal combination right there!10/10

movieman-138 Sonny Chiba made the first two movies first off...and he is barely in this one..I dont think he said one word in this entire film and when they show him...it doesnt even look like it IS HIM! Anyhow what I liked about this film is out of the three i saw this has most nudity and there is one scene when a father is forced to watch his daughter be raped...that was pretty funny maybe thats not the word..but out of the three i rate this one last not by much...I'm off to see the fourth in this series...from what i heard its even worse...I'll let yall know.

EL BUNCHO In many ways a film that a nine-year-old would have made, SISTER STREET FIGHTER has very little grasp on reality or coherent storytelling, but who cares? When a movie is this entertaining, all bets are off!Sonny Chiba protegee Etsuko "Sue" Shiomi stars as a badass who goes up against a dizzying array of villains, each crazier than the next (my favorites being the basket-headed dudes). The plot really is beside the point here, so drink a few brews and enjoy!!!
