Such a frustrating disappointment

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Oh no! I wanted to write a plot summary of this movie but the other reviewer beat me to it by four days! I guess now I'll have to cut right to the chase. "Brush Up My Sisters" is basically a reverse Hong Kong version of "Police Academy", and the humor is not really of a much higher level. Also, it HAS been shot on video and that takes some getting used to. But it's still a likable movie, mostly thanks to the three female leads. Natalie Ng and Pinky Cheung are adorable, but Teresa Mak steals the show with her stunning beauty and focused intensity. However, if you're looking for lots of girls-with-guns action (and who could blame you after looking at the cover!), you'll be disappointed as there is very little of that. Footnote: the English subtitles are often illiterate and sometimes go by way too fast, but generally they can be followed. (**1/2)

This is a disappointing action/comedy. The premise is that three girls join the police force and go to the academy for their own reasons. One wants to get a gun so that she can use it to kill the murderer of her sister. Another wants to join the force so she can be near the cop she secretly loves. The third is really a reporter and wants to write an expose on a lesbian scandal in the police force. Its the type of thing you've seen a dozen times before better and probably an equal number of times worse. "Livening" things up in the second half is the fact that one of the girls ends up in possession of some stolen jewels and it goes from there. Its not very exciting and appears to have been shot on video (I was watching a VCD so the picture was down graded a bit) in a manner that was strictly by the TV book of numbers. You can tell from my lack of excitement in writing about the film how happy the movie made me feel. If you're stuck on a plane or some where you're going to be a while and don't have a choice this is probably worth a shot. Given a choice there are probably better things you could be watching.
