Karate Girl (2011)

I liked the story, but the acting was bad. The costume department needs help b/c at the end they sent the lead actress to fight in a school uniform. Who goes to a fight in a skirt? Really! It just showed how sexiest some directors r & how they tried to fuel the school girl fetish. Yeah I said it! I would watch this again if it was remade w/ a little more content to the story about the sisters. There needs to be more background on their lives to understand the characters. Not just the time when they were split up. The villain was retarded & at times I felt was mentally disturbed. I figure he had obsessive compulsive personality disorder to be so hung up on a belt even if it was some famous guys belt. Neways I really don't care to ever watch this again & am kinda sorry I watched it in the first place. Even though it did have some pretty cool fight scenes.

At least better than High Kick Girl

This one actually has a story and a director, and it's alright. But I feel like the whole movie could've been much shorter.

The fights are okay. The acting is OKAY. They cast a lot of real fighters (including the foreigner who plays Keith (he also played a random guy in High Kick Girl). There's Rina Takeda whose acting is good and fights really well. I think everyone else's acting were pretty much alright, nothing that would break your immersion. Of course there are a lot of lame plot moments but there's no need to get picky on this movie. Just stop.

The story is not bad but it's worthless. All there is to it is the action, which doesn't holds the film together in this case.
Wouldn't watch again and I don't recommend.
