Purely Joyful Movie!

Nice effects though.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Sunny Justice (Carter) is a spunky female kickboxer not afraid to take on a man in the ring. This quality is going to come in handy, because she stumbles onto a small-town conspiracy that could go, eventually, all the way to the top. Upon the death of her sister Suzanne (Paris), the mayor of a dusty ol' town named Los Olivos, Sunny returns home, and after speaking to the Sheriff and Suzanne's boyfriend, Steve Colton (Singer), and local yokel Zeke (Rooney), she discovers the culprit: an evil land developer (yes, another one!) named Rivas (Gorshin) who is also dumping toxic waste into the old mine (presumably where Timmy from Lassie got stuck every week). Deciding to cut through the bureaucratic red tape, Sunny reconvenes her old commando unit, an all-female fighting force sanctioned by the U.S. Army. Here is the team, along with some of their relevant credits:Kim (McCormick) - from Hawkeye (1988) and Showdown (1993) - Chris Barnes (Catherine Hickland) - from Robowar (1988) - M.J. (Marjean Holden) - from Ballistic (1995) and Automatic (1995) - Josie (Patricia Tallman) - known for her work in horror movies, and had a small part in Road House (1989) - Heather (Kathleen Kinmont) - we all know her, but for those who may not, she is the former Mrs. Lorenzo Lamas and was in a bunch of his movies, such as CIA Code Name: Alexa (1992), Final Impact (1992), and Snake Eater II: The Drug Buster (1989), among others, but she also starred in plenty of stuff on her own such as The Art of Dying (1991) and Gangland (2001), to name just a few. And in further non-Lamas Lamas news, this movie reunites Kinmont, McCormick, and Branscombe Richmond (in a tiny part) - all seen in the show Renegade. - and, of course, Sunny Justice (Finn Carter), who, coincidentally, was on an unrelated TV show called Sweet Justice a few years later. And her sister, the hot mayor (Cheryl Paris), was in the unfortunate Liberty and Bash (1989).Will this power-packed team of fighting women get to the bottom of the conspiracy and get their man? Find out today!Sweet Justice is essentially a cross between Hell Squad (1986), China O'Brien (1990), and Frame Up (1991). To paraphrase our friend Cool Target, the first 30 minutes are kind of slow, but after that, things pick up and become very enjoyable. In Frame Up, the Evil Land Developer (perhaps we should start now capitalizing it and calling them ELD's for short, we see them so much) was Dick Sargent, and here it's Frank Gorshin. Maybe aging TV actors are drawn to the role because it's so perfunctory? It must be like a working retirement for them. Gorshin puts in a wacky performance, even Riddler-esque you might say? Mickey "Maximum Force" Rooney (he's synonymous with Maximum Force, isn't he?) puts in a top-notch sit-down role, but to be fair, it's tough to tell whether he's standing or not because of his height. When one of Rivas's goons punches Zeke in the face, that's when all bets are off and the girls get their SWEET JUSTICE.It's your classic "assemble a team" movie, and we always enjoy those. You really have to admire anyone who's willing to drop their job to go on an illegal killing spree with their buddies just because one of them enlists you to. There's even a classic training montage and shreddin' guitars play on the soundtrack during fights. You've gotta love it. The women and their diverse personalities and fighting styles keep it from becoming boring. We thought another title for the movie (or another like it in the future) could be "EMPOWERMENT". You get the idea.The team leader, Sunny Justice, is a pre-The Fight (2001) woman who takes on men in the ring. She was truly ahead of her time. And in Street Corner Justice (1996), Marc Singer played the immortal Mike Justus. Sunny Justice and Mike Justus together again at last. We celebrated. Singer has never looked more like Kevin Bacon than he does here. Maybe it's the hair. While Finn Carter takes on the Cynthia Rothrock role from the aforementioned China O'Brien (there's even a fight in a gym just like in that movie), we thought that if Sweet Justice were made today, the part of Sunny Justice could be portrayed by Gina Carano.Featuring the prerequisite sax on the soundtrack, as well as end credits ballad "The Glory of it All" by Sherry Cameron, Sweet Justice is rollicking entertainment, perfect for video stores of the 90's. Released by Triboro on VHS at that time, Sweet Justice is sweet viewing.

Sweet Justice sees a female posse fighting against corrupt elements formed after the death of its leader's (Finn Carter) sister. I only watch this because it featured Kathleen Kinmont as a member of this posse and it is very good that she shows off her fighting skills in this movie. It was extremely nice that Kathleen was naked with the other female cast members in a sauna scene and it is not the first time that I have seen her naked with other women as her nude scene with Barbara Crampton in Fraternity Vacation is something I will always treasure. Sweet Justice culminates in a long-drawn shoot-out between the posse and their adversaries. Sweet Justice is only enjoyable if one leaves their brain at the door.Sweet Justice is of a curio to Babylon 5 as it featured Patricia Tallman and Marjean Holden who would later become regulars in Babylon 5 and its spin-off Crusade respectively.

This nutso action flick stars Finn Carter, the acting challenged daughter of former State Department spokesman Hodding Carter III, as Suuny Justice, a lady boxer out for revenge when her sister is murdered by local hoodlums. The fact that she boxes is referred to at the start of the film and then conveniently forgotten once she returns to her home town, where wicked Frank Gorshin has too many fingers in the pie. Unbeknownst to the locals (including Sunny's former main squeeze, a lawman played by Kevin Bacon-lookalike Marc Singer), she has had extensive training as a member of a super secret, all-woman Special Forces unit. When Sunny decides she's in over her head, she rounds up her fellow lady veterans, including Kathleen Kinmont and several other large-breasted women who enjoy soaking in hot tubs, for some good old fashioned man-pounding. This cut rate, direct to video feature from Triboro Films wishes it could have been produced by Golan-Globus. At least Gorshin seems to be having fun.

I have seen this movie twice. Personally I am a big fan of these kind of movies in which you see lots of females fighting against men. In this movie -containing a ridiculous plot- the attractions are 6 beautiful girls revenging the murder of one of these girls' sister. All girls have been former military commando members but never been brought in service because they were supposed be too vulnerable according to a higher hierarchy. Sunny Justice who's sister has been killed by the corrupt sheriff gathers all former female members together to revenge the killing and to prove for themselves that they certainly can destroy men if necessary. All member are martial art experts and do some exercises before they come into action. When at one point the whole bunch of bad guys are in the village, the girls gang strike with brute force. What you see next are lots of m/f fights. In all the fights you see the men being beaten the shit out of them. Especially one scene shows an impressive fight between a busty girl (with the hair-band) beating the shit out of a man with nice kicks and punches. She finishes him with a flying kick in his chest. Later on in the movie the fights are done with guns and stuff. This shows less interesting scenes. But nevertheless if you like movies with a plot even a recent born baby can comprehend and you like goodlooking lethal babes, this movie is definitely a must rent.
