The Inspector Wears Skirts

 


The Inspector Wears Skirts (Top Squad) Directed by Wellson Chin 1988.

Cynthia Rothrock aka the female Chuck Norris early in her career did mucho kick ass buddy cop flicks, this one starts off with exploding ninjas and an impressive choreographed battle. 

When you see that Golden Harvest logo it means there’s a high percentage you will be pleased. The slipcover art is impressive. The skirt unit are an illite fighting team training their butts off for something, it’s not clear yet. 

campfire circle jerk?


The girls in the bunker talk about urine. This movie has lots of toilet humor and for some odd reason Nazi jokes!! The subs are very different from the English language version. 

Ricky Lau from Mr. Vampire shows up as a lunch worker. He gives one girl he deems over weight a raw egg. Ohh shit----it’s an old school roller rink where one dude with a ball-cap screams Heil Hitler! I have no idea why? 
The egg represents your ovaries


The Nazi wears overalls too, I thought I’d mention this. There’s more off-putting poop talk. We are in the clutches of a Golden Harvest production so we’re not safe! Wow---we’re treated to a rockabilly musical number as kids dance and clap. 

Rockabilly is thee real "Devil's Music"


The girls say Yes, Madam to their superior which reminds me where’s Cynthia? And also there’s a series of films with Michele Yeoh and Ms. Rothrock that carries that title. 

She's not your fuggin punching bag dude!


I feel bad for this Amy character played by Sandra Ng. The Nazi who dresses like a 4 yr old plays slap fight with her and busts the poor gal's lip. It’s all in good hijinx or the comedic timing of SKIRTS.


Heil Mayor McSleaze


The all girl squad look down on individualism which is fucked up. Amy and the Nazi loser hit the dance floor. That’s right we’re in a nightclub now. Coke is definitely a sponsor, the beverage not the stimulant. The girl's attack a cheater and scar his hand with a heated up metal pipe. 


SWOON!

Rothrock returns after an hour! She shows up wearing acid washed denim. They reveal her character name as Madam Law. 

CAUTION REAL FLAMES!

There’s a goofy Police Academy training montage. It’s pervy but there’s no nudity, it’s violent but in a comedic way. I recommend watching the English language dub because the dialogue is very entertaining (it differs vastly from the subs). If you liked this one there are 4 sequels to look forward to. Shing Fui-On the actor from Blue Jeans Monster appears as a thug. The last battle has a blonde guy who does "monkey style" kung-fu. The fight choreography is fuggin wonderful!

It's streaming on Tubi and 88 Films offers the physical media blu-ray with extras. I watched the interview with Rothrock (who still looks stunningly beautiful currently).
