Carina Lau and Joyce Godenzi are fabulous in

Carina Lau and Joyce Godenzi are fabulous in this girls with guns actioner! The late legendary Hong Kong director Corey Yuen’s action thriller She Shoots Straight (1990) effortlessly balances family melodrama with startling stunt choreography. She Shoots Straight boasts blazing action that has to be seen to be believed alongside surprisingly touching melodrama. She Shoots Straight may be up there with Corey Yuen’s greatest film My Father Is a Hero starring Jet Li. I was reminded of My Father Is a Hero, The Heroic Trio, Infernal Affairs, The Departed, as well as Double Impact. Joyce Godenzi is astounding as the lead heroine named Inspector Mina Kao. Her tearful dramatic acting is serious and moving with a subtle performance I loved. She’s also very beautiful and striking. Meanwhile, her jumping kicks, sweeping kicks, and ferocious fists are amazing. I’m very impressed with her. Carina Lau is so cute and funny as the fierce sister policewoman Huang Chia-Ling.

She shoots, but does she score? Well, between

She shoots, but does she score? Well, between the copious amounts of histrionic, clichéd melodrama with scenes that go on for way too long, She Shoots Straight provides some genuinely uproarious and well-done action that wouldn't be out of place this side of Michelle Yeoh. Corey Yuen certainly brings variety to the film's kinetic style, particular standouts being a shootout shot in infrared and the storming of a ship with every manner of melee weapon imaginable, Yuen understands when to add a dramatic weight to make a true impact. Complimented by a decent if cheesy score by Lowell Lo, while the performances of Joyce Godenzi and Carina Lau balance out the deranged villainous antics of Yuen Wah. She Shoots Straight isn't bad by any means but the story doesn't make me really care about any of its soapy sap opera characters beyond a surface level while the action is too few and far between but finally delivers that explosive Hong Kong finale that you wait the whole film for, it just really needed some spicing up during the first half.
