Two Tigers
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. The drama propels into a highly emotional and sensitive story about two women who are independent and ferocious in guarding affairs of their heart, even though their individual jobs lead many to believe that they are only cold-blooded and materialistic.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
These comments pertain to home video only, as I continue to prefer the big stuff in theaters.After plowing through Watchmen today and Beowolf yesterday, I really appreciated this movie, as one would appreciate a Burger King whooper. Sure, it is a brainless junk movie, but I like watching the action babes and Andrea Osvart is one hot babe.I am really tired of bloated big budget confusing movies seemingly with just big special effects and fight scenes comprised of stupid wire work.Action scenes are limited as are the fight scenes, but at least they are real looking. Mostly, the movie is all about following Ms. Osvart around as she goes about her assassin job. And I will follow her anywhere. Also, the music and Shanghai are highlights, as mentioned by other reviewers.Let's not take this movie seriously because an assassin should be someone who is very ordinary looking and very forgettable. One final reason to like this movie, is no one has named it the worst movie ever made, yet.
At first glance (the cover) You will expect an action packed martial arts movie with sword fighting. In all honesty this could not be further from the truth. The acting is poor and the scenery is nothing you have not seen before. As far as the martial arts goes (the little that there is), It should have been left out of the movie all together. As previously stated, It is obvious that the lead actress has no clue what she is doing and few fight scenes were filmed terribly. Selena Khoo, who plays the part of Lin is probably the best actor in this movie and that is not saying much. I believe this film relies entirely on on the attractiveness of the actresses and their willingness to appear nude on camera. While this may be what some are looking for it is not what I was looking for upon selecting this title.There is a lot of "Broken English" but this does not bother me though I could see how it would bother some.In short, The MPAA rating of this movie gives a better description of what you will get than anything else. This movie is nothing more to me than a poorly written and filmed fantasy adult soft-core.This film is not even a "b-movie"
Frankly put, I spent half the film wondering if it was a porno or not. Gratuitous skin scenes that bring nothing neither to the plot nor to the action make for a drawn-out movie that drastically dilutes whatever "action" was supposed to be there. As has already been noted, the fight scenes are nothing to phone home about, although I did find that the dojo scene was slightly better thought-out than the rest of the film. For the rest, the action is quite lacking. No planning before hand, no surprise in execution, no problem with the getaway, and a very lame showing of local mafia add up to nothing to get excited about. Add to that the school-level camera angles, bad pronunciation all around and a total absence of any sort of anticipation and what you get is a porno film - without the hardcore sex. The single redeeming feature of this mess is Mrs. Osvart's body. Fine though it is, it's hardly enough to carry a film.
Wow, this movie is horrendous. It was made in collaboration between the Italians and the Chinese and it doesn't seem like they got any of the casting right either. The main Asian girl in the film can't even speak correct Mandarin and the acting throughout the movie is just terrible. Please save yourself the time and go watch a better movie. The lines written for the movie are really cheesy and cliché and half the time I just skipped through the talking, especially when the Asian girl tried to speak in Mandarin. I think the whole point of them making the movie was so they could make a movie that contained female nudity and some sex scenes. The cinematography for this movie looks amateurish at best. The budget must have been like $10,000 or something since the shooting scenes looked really fake. There is a hilarious scene where the girl is stripping and the dude is sweating like crazy because he's probably never seen a naked girl.
