Member NoKUNGFUforYU Posted June 23, 2019 Member Share Posted June 23, 2019 You would probably like Angel Enforcers. Most of these girls with guns are one offs, even though they seem to play the same character. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Daxtreme Posted June 23, 2019 Member Share Posted June 23, 2019 Most of these movies are just carbon-copies of each other. But if you like that carbon copy... they're pretty interesting! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Boy_from_BRazil Posted January 27, 2020 Member Share Posted January 27, 2020 I know this movie by heart "Princess Madam" and I liked it very much. By the way I love these girls with guns movies. 😄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member sym8 Posted October 17, 2020 Member Share Posted October 17, 2020 Haven’t seen this since the early 90s so was pleasantly surprised that I liked it as much as I did on my second viewing.This Godfrey Ho movie(which is one complete one and not spliced with another)is well paced with some great fight scenes and shoot outs,the only down side is there are too many sub plots to contend with but well worth checking out👍👍👍 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DrNgor Posted April 25, 2023 Member Share Posted April 25, 2023 Princess Madam (Hong Kong, 1989: Godfrey Ho) - A woman decides to testify against her former boss, who used to be a crime boss but has now gone straight. He immediately tries to kill her, even sending an army of motorcycle gang of assassins after her and her police escorts, including Moon Lee and Sharon Yeung Pan Pan. So, while the lady is in the safe house, Moon Lee and Sharon Yeung have their own problems and lives to deal with. Moon Lee's husband has a one-night stand with Michiko Nishiwaki because she's always away for work, but Michiko has some evil designs on the couple. Sharon Yeung's father, played by the late Kenneth Tsang, is a former cop and was on the take with said former crime boss. When she finds out this fact, the story takes a surprisingly dark turn... By the end of the 1980s, it seems Godfrey Ho had stopped with the Cut n' Paste films and was trying to make "real" movies, starting with a number of GWG films, like this and Angel Enforcers. Although none of them are considered classics, they have their moments. This one has a lot of solid fight action and Michiko at her sexiest. Some people think that the Michiko subplot was taken from another film (which happened to also star Moon and Sharon), since it does feel a little divorced from the witness protection plot. It didn't like feel like a separate movie to me; it just felt like a strange writing decision to spend the second act of the movie on a subplot involving a secondary villain. Has anything ever been confirmed? The action is good. The finale eschews the fisticuffs in favor of going the full of John Woo, thus emphasizing the "guns" of the Girls with Guns moniker. Ironically, despite the name of the sub-genre, fans tend to prefer the fighting over the gunplay in these films, But occasionally, it's good to see a GWG film with some strong gunplay and I enjoyed watching Sharon Yeung doing impossible gun stunts. Add that to some crazy twists at the end, and you have a decent way to spend 90 minutes. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a little plot detail that Sharon Yeung's cop character is an orphan in both films. You could see Princess Madam as being Angel Enforcers 2. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Karlos Posted April 27, 2023 Moderator Share Posted April 27, 2023 Am I right in saying this has also gone by the title Iron Angels IV? There's also a cut, dubbed version called Under Police Protection. Very underrated girls 'n guns flick, I think. Yeung and Moon Lee make an excellent team. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member CaldoTheKid Posted April 28, 2023 Member Share Posted April 28, 2023 I'd heard of it and had it on my list, but somehow didn't realise or maybe I forgot that Godfrey Ho directed it. I think I'm going to bump it up on the list. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
