Anton Bitel Little White Lies coherent plotting takes a backseat to the fast-punning dialogue (inevitably misfiring in translation) and the hard-hitting, acrobatic action set-pieces (which work in any language).... Rothrock truly is the film’s weapon of mass destruction... Jun 19, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Peter P The movie itself is average, typical Hong Kong style actioner with some silly humor. But it's fast-paced, very energetic and with tons of intense fights. You watch this movie for Cynthia Rothrock, and Cynthia Rothrock you get. She has some spectacular scenes. It's a great showcase of her skills and fearless attitude. Fans of 80s Hong Kong martials arts movies should definitely check this out. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/02/23 Full Review DanTheMan 2 When your film opens on shots of 80s New York playing to the tune of not quite Crockett's Theme by Jan Hammer, you know the filmmakers were cooking. Blonde Fury aka Lady Reporter has the unique distinction of being the first and only time a Western actress has ever had lead billing in a Hong Kong film, with Cynthia Rothrock turning in a fun and charismatic performance to boot. Blending the hard-hitting style of Corey Yuen and the graceful acrobatic choreography of Mang Hoi into a movie that's tremendous fun but sloppily put together. The story is way too convoluted for its own good supported by way too many characters, although the performances from its cast are deliciously hammy in particular Roy Chiao and Ronny Yu, they just lobbied with some pretty awful dialogue. Despite its issues, Blonde Fury hits that sweet spot of the 80s and 90s Hong Kong cinema, taking the very rough with the very smooth, not all the comedic beats land but the punches certainly do. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/30/23 Full Review William D Awesome martial arts movie. Cynthia Rothrock is at her best. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
