Cleopatra & the Casino of Gold

Ok, so this is not a HK film, but it certainly has HK sensibilities and it does take place in HK.

Cleopatra (Tamara Dobson) goes to HK to track down the supplier of drugs into the US. This turns out to be Stella Stevens and watching her attempt a little kung fu is almost funny enough to watch the film. She is not quite as ludicrous as Shelly Winters was as the villainess in the previous Cleopatra Jones film – but it is pretty ridiculous. A Chinese fighting femme sidekick soon joins Cleopatra and the two of them tear HK apart. A lot of action – both of the gun variety and the kung fu variety. I enjoyed this film much more than I was expecting and the scenes of HK back in the early seventies were an enjoyable bonus.
