Primarily a comedy

THE INSPECTOR WEARS SKIRTS is a typically knockabout Hong Kong comedy with a bit of action at the beginning and end to bookend it. It was produced by Jackie Chan and stars a wealth of female talent, mixed between female action stars and comediennes. I should note that this is primarily a comedy based around the female members of a training school; there are the usual set-piece hijinks at bars and parties and at a roller disco too. The comedy is very localised and Chinese in tone, but I found much of it fitfully amusing and cameos from the likes of Ricky Hui help immensely. Stanley Fung is also on top form and has a good repartee with Sibelle Hu. The action makes good use of Cynthia Rothrock and the ending is particularly frenetic, with Kara Hui and Jeff Falcon going at it and all manner of crazed antics for viewers to enjoy.

A celebration of female beauty, skill and courage

Following pretty much the same structure as the highly popular at the time "Lucky Stars" films, "The Inspector Wears Skirts" has action mostly in the first and last 10 minutes, and comedy, romance and a bit of drama in the middle. This causes the film to lag at times, but still, the action sequences are awesome and there ARE some legitimately funny moments as well, courtesy mostly of Sandra Ng. The cast offers a mind-boggling collection of beautiful women, but if I had to pick just one as my favorite, it would probably be the STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS Ellen Chan. However, it should be noted that the girls weren't picked just for their looks, but for their skills as well: they don't seem to be intimidated at all by any physicality required, they throw themselves into their roles with abandon and take quite a few "ouch" bumps (the action was choreographed by Jackie Chan's Stunt Team; IMDb says that Jackie also directed the film, but I'm not so sure this info is accurate). Overall, "The Inspector Wears Skirts" is uneven, but a definite must-see for Girls With Guns fans. (**1/2)

An Action Comedy that is more slapstick.

Actress Sibelle Hu stars as Madam Wu, a character that is spun-off from the "Five Lucky Stars" movie series. Here, she is in charge of training a group of female Banshee Squad Members of the Hong Kong Police Force. Next door to their academy is the male Tiger Squad Members, led by Inspector Kan (Shui-Fan Fung).

What started out as some rigorous training action quickly was reduced to a prolonged scene set at a roller-skating rink towards the middle of the movie, where the Tiger Squad members try to court the Banshee Squad members. This scene really dragged with unnecessary slapstick humor that distracts from the movie's main plot. The subplots of the members courting one another and the rivalry of Madam Wu and Inspector Kan are not interwoven into the story well, making you wonder what the main objective of this movie's story is. Some butt-kicking and gut-totting action do not take place until the end of the film.

So, if you are a fan of slapstick comedy, give this film a watch. If you are a fan of action movies only, watch the beginning, than forward to the end.

Grade C-
