Siblings Kwanny & Chung are left in charge of their father’s empire after he is assassinated by rival Chau Yung. After a series of tit-for-tat killings and a bloody massacre at Kwanny’s wedding, she is left as the sole heiress to her late father’s business. However, this means that she must now deal with an ambitious and ruthless family member who orchestrated the massacre and is planning to take over the business for himself.
This is the movie which features the iconic moment when Cynthia Khan in her bloodstained wedding dress grabs a machine gun and starts mowing down the villains like the bad ass chick that she is! Apart from a couple of exciting scenes for the action fan, this movie has a lot of boring screentime in the 1st half when you’re just twiddling your thumbs waiting for something to happen. Thankfully during the 2nd half the action really kicks in. It’s fairly standard stuff mainly consisting of gunplay. There’s also a welcome bit of hand-to-hand combat in the climatic showdown courtesy of Cynthia Khan, Billy Chow and a Japanese businessman and his blonde henchwoman. It’s certainly not Cynthia’s best movie but there’s enough here to satisfy any HK action fan.
No trailer but here’s the wedding massacre scene from the movie
