Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
Etsuko Shihomi goes after the criminals holding her brother and runs into a seemingly endless supply of specialist fighters. This is tough, lively martial-arts pulp, with colourful opponents providing the excess. The fighting deserves appreciation alongside the outrageous villain business.
