A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

The idea of this movie - a sexy female secret agent - was not a new idea even when this movie was made. However, it all the same had some great possibilities for both sleaze and action. Unfortunately, the potential was nowhere near realized by these particular filmmakers. There is no nudity by the lead figure or any other character in the movie, and while there is sex, it's so tamely staged that it could play in prime time television with absolutely no edits. When it comes to action, things are not that much better. The martial arts sequences are old school style, and not particularly well choreographed or directed. Occasionally they are lame enough to generate a slight chuckle, I admit, but not often enough. The other parts of the movie do once in a while generate some extra unintended humor, but the total number of laughs is pretty limited. The movie for the most part is pretty dull and feeble, and it's hard to believe it was an international success.

Cleopatra Wong is an agent for INTERPOL. Called off her vacation to track down a source that is flooding five Asian countries with near perfect money. The trail takes her from the Philippines, to Hong Kong, Singapore and then back to the Philippines where she ends up donning a nun's habit to enter a monastery that seems to be the source of the bogus cash.This movie doesn't make a great deal of sense but it does move along at a great clip. I don't think during the first half of the film more than three minutes pass with out some one getting beaten up by Wong. Its amazing, and amazingly fun, so much fun you don't care about the lack of sense. Unfortunately once Wong has found the source of the bad bills the film slows down as we are taken inside the operation and shown whats really going on. Its a not a good thing since the film not only to start to think about how nothing is making sense the film never fully recovers the momentum lost, even with a 20 minute long shoot out that ends the film (its a great guilty pleasure).I liked the film a great deal. I dislike the slow fifteen minutes in the middle, but as an action candy this is one heck of a guilty pleasure. Action junkies are advised to track this film down. I also can recommend it to anyone with a high tolerance for tongue in cheek action films.7.5 out of 10.(FYI: I've read, though I'm not sure its true that the final shoot out got the film in hot water in the Philippines since the Catholic Church objected to people in nuns habits firing shot guns and automatic weapons, and considering the number of people in habits, its not surprising)

Cleopatra wong. I first seen this movie in Luxembourg TV RTL an It was the last time I have ever seen It was year 1990. Cleopatra wong is really good action flick a beatiful female agent who is expert on martial arts beat all bad guys and sometimes killed them. She was portrayed like a female James Bond. She also was very free woman. However, this action classic from Phillipines is really hard to find. I have no idea where Cleopatra wong's video copies locates

This was my favorite movie when I was young (6 or 7 years). I don't really remember everything except for the fight scenes. All I remember of this movie is that the actress is beautiful and that she fights well! I try to find this movie for years.
