Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With soft box office and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for anyone who likes to be kept guessing and action fans. If you loved Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair or Escape from New York, start here.
The mood: Tense.
The pace: Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 30 min.
What might put you off: Rated R: meant for adults.
It's in Cantonese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

A mysterious woman, known as Madame M, kidnaps forty pre-teen girls and transports them to a remote island to train them as the most deadly assassins. CIA operative Jack Chen follows the case for 6 years with no leads, but when a series of assassinations begin to occur, Jack suspects that Madame M is back in business.
