Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
宛如上世纪九十年代的硬派动作片，暴力、粗俗，又不乏英雄主义与伤痕过往。当保守平权和超级英雄大肆其道，似乎人们早已不愿再去触碰源自西方世界先前的干涉原罪而导致的恐慌症候的虚构演绎——动作惊悚片恰恰是最通俗而震慑的精神洗礼。马丁·坎贝尔或许是如今世上最后几位用流行电影于严肃和浮夸间书写前一世代遗留问题的创作者之一，当然这或许暗示了这批优秀行活动作片导演的过时，但他们依然真正把握着动作场面与深度叙事间的精确分寸以及经典动作类型电影的技法腔调，并因此在当下意外重铸出了这一类型本已不再背负的超现实下的现实指涉。
开场的深入虎穴杀老大还不错。可惜后面就变成了老师被杀门徒复仇的俗套故事。
就是整体很完整，没啥亮点，打就完事的感觉。
中世纪版的《杀死比尔》，第二部公主被活埋，然后依靠中国功夫破土而出，继续复仇...
结尾两人对射，其实还可以延展的更好，可惜了，感觉有些仓促
更新：剧情果然就是shit,和简介有啥关系？果然就是看女神打戏了…
中规中矩没什么可圈点的武打片。麦姐演感情戏一如既往的容易用力过猛
40多岁的人和一个快70岁的人，真的CP感有点弱了，就不能找一个帅一点的小伙子嘛，体会一下像萧亚轩的快乐也可以呀…
又是杀手又是特工又是孤儿又是被救又是培训成全能型~
我是想看张静初版的门徒，结果歪打正着的看了李美琪版的这部，评分也不至于这么低吧，这种类型的枪战片子，从小看到大，不就是BUG满满么。所谓的爆米花电影，就是看着打的爽就可以了，剧情不那么重要。
有几个打斗场面太好看了，看得我一个人在家欢呼。在牢房里那段，末尾回忆那一段。有些部分太过血腥残忍了，不喜欢。还有就是，这男的那么老也不帅为啥愿意跟他睡？
过时的大女主杀手片，还喜欢玩点烧脑和文艺，绕来绕去的也不算有趣，70岁的迈克尔基顿演这个角色是认真的吗，褶皱的皮肤和稀疏的头发，从头到尾的油腻感，在说出kill me or fuck me 的时候，这部电影彻底毁了。李美琪还行，没完全老去。
最后你都说累了还一枪干掉情人是几个意思啊？
过时与复古之间是当有一条清晰的界线的，在此基础上去探讨所谓西方后殖民时代的创伤与反思只能是彻底的牵强。
全剧最多的就是废话，动作戏不够干脆，吊胃口，剧情拖沓，没有一点代入感，故事情节交代不清楚，真的是浪费时间。
Cineplex. International Village. 没评价里写的那么难看但是真的有点长了....
观感很糟糕，基本没有比较赤激的段落，豪华阵容一点儿用都没有，这不合理。🙄
这杀手跟尼玛逗你玩似的。这文戏跟尼玛强行植入似的。这剧本跟尼玛城乡结合部小文青强拗国际大文豪人设似的。总之，就是“不专业”，是那种连“爆米花流水线影视产品”都不敢或不屑于直面承认的不专业。21/09/03
马丁坎贝尔快八十了，一个会拍动作片的老手，上部《英伦对决》值四星，但这次的剧本实在太陈旧，Maggie Q被女特工角色彻底困住，全片最酷的其实是迈克尔基顿，为他设计的两场打戏值得一看，其余可快进。
逻辑性差的不可说。要不是特效还可以看下.都难得拿来打法时间。
