Gun Woman (2014)

Recommended Posts

'Gun Woman' (2014)...not any of those other 'Gun Woman's you are thinking of.

 

It's a violent gonzo gore-fest that would normally be lost in the straight to video gonzo gorefest rave in Asia.

 

It's as down-home Asian as a tentacle getting frisky with your watchamacalls. Desu!?

 

So what separates this from the pack? Well, it's trying to be La Femme Nikita. It's real earnest and serious. It is played entirely straight. There is not an ounce of humor in a film that features some of the most ridiculous things ever commited to screen.

 

When someone told me about this film, my first question was, '...so she's half-gun, half-woman...? Why can't she be a Gun Lady? 'Woman' is real impersonal for a protagonist...'

 

The response was unnecessarily cagey and danced around anything peripherally related to my goofy questions. This deception intrigued me and led me to this film. It's insane. More insane than normal asian cinema insanity.
