Ludicrous plot, appalling script and childish acting -- this film is awful in almost every respect and gets worse and worse as it progresses. I find it barely believable that this even got made, let alone released.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

I mean I've watched some dogs in my life, but this, this right here is the worst MA film ever. It is way over the top bad. Like really, a mid-air vertebrae twist to end the final bad guy???? C'mon man. Not to mention standing on his head before that with a full camera spin only to jump back down to attack him. Hot Garbage.

Pretty fair action movie with a title that has absolutely nothing to do with the film. The choreography of the fight sequences is above average. The story is a bit weak and hinges too much on coincidence, but the beautiful and deadly Maggie Q is showcased so who really cares?

The premise of Naked Weapon is promising, but it never fully utilizes this premise. Still, Naked Weapon is a fun slice of ridiculous action cinema. The film works quite well as an action film thanks to great choreography that seems like it's trying to mimic the fight scenes from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and The Matrix. While the film as a whole is great, the second half of the film loses steam when the story throws in haphazardly-written, bizarre, and unintentionally hilarious drama. The story loses its focus in the later half of the film and the film becomes a strange, but entertaining mess with a lot of unintentionally funny moments (You wanna know what's the best option regarding a kidnapped friend? Have sex in a nice beach setting for a while and then try to go rescue them!). Despite many ridiculous moments, Naked Weapon is a really fun action film with awesome action scenes, cheesy acting, beautiful women, shameless sex scenes and nudity, and many goofy moments.

This Hong Kong action movie is directed by Tony Ching Siu Tung and the screenplay is written by Wong Jing. The story is pretty lame: Madame M (Almen Wong) kidnaps 13-year-old girls from around the world, to train them on a deserted island as assassins. In seven years, they have to fight each other for the fittest one only to survive? but Madame M decides that the three of them deserve a contract: gymnast Charlene Ching (Maggie Q), kickboxer Katt (Anya), and Jing (Jewel Lee). Of course, there is always a CIA agent somewhere, this time is Jack Chan (Daniel Wu) who stayed on the trail of the girls since their disappearance? I would not waste too much time on the story, though. For acting, it is definitely B grade, except Maggie Q and Anya who were noticeable on the screen... directing is something which I got used watching Hong Kong movies - just good enough to be watchable! Camera work has some good shots in slow motion but most of the choreographed fighting scenes are useless posing not real fighting. Some of the scenes were so cheap that will insult your intelligence (let me know what do you think of the rape scene if you ever waste time watching this movie). I will recommend this only for people who are hooked on action movies with hot chicks and love some idiotic CIA agents who cannot drive or kill.
