Leofwine_draca As an early Taiwanese kung fu film, A GIRL CALLED TIGRESS isn't too bad at all. Polly Shang Kwan headlines the cast and is at her physical prime in this one. She plays a dual role here as two sisters, one of whom has been kidnapped by persons unknown; the fighting Polly goes searching for her sister and teams up with a youthful Kam Kong before he was typecast as a villain in kung fu movies. Inevitably their hunt leads them up against a criminal gang busy buying up land and terrorising everybody around.The real villain is, of course, Yasuaki Kurata, which is a given as soon as you see his name featured in the cast list. Kurata is on strong form too and the good news is that A GIRL CALLED TIGRESS has plenty of action to see it through. It needs to have, given that the plot is very straightforward and not really in-depth enough to sustain a feature film, which is why the running time on this one is so short.
