Baby Assassins (2021) This is a strange crime comedy featuring two teenage girls that are assassins. They are very good at what they do. Their bosses want them to share an apartment of their own and get part time jobs to look inconspicuous, but the problem is that they're sociopaths and they just can't put up with their part time bosses or customers without killing them. The blonde Mahilo (Saori Izawa) and her co-assassin, Chisato (Akari Takaishi) have more misadventures just coping with the straight world than taking out Yakuza gangsters. They are barely able to handle each other, but somehow it works for them. Both Mahilo and Chisato are reasonably likable and you find yourself rooting for them. The fight choreography is very good. The movie is humorous but not a laugh riot. I really enjoyed it.

I absolutely LOVE action movies and asian movies so when i saw the trailer for this, it was a no brainer for me, insta buy and watch. But boy was i dissapointed, one of the most boring asian flicks i ever seen, i hardly ever write reviews but it just had to be said. Dont be fooled by the trailer. The story seems to be truelly intresting but sadly the movie is like 90% of the time just in their appartment, where they eat or just talk or bs. This to me was even worse than a romantic chickflick. It starts out pretty strong but after that it goes downhill faster than the speed of light. Lol, wouldnt recommend at all to people who watch it for the actionaspect.

From the films title and cover photo you can pretty much tell what you're in for. What I didn't expect was how well acted, how well filmed, choreographed, funny and over all charming I would find it. Did I say funny ? It is funny! I think the two main characters really deliver charming, nuanced performances. Yes it's an admittedly ridiculous version of teenagers having to face the absurdity of modern times but it's well done even endearing. Think "The Raid" meets "Rurouni Kenshin" meets "Ghost World" meets something funny. I really liked it. I don't know that it warrants a sequel as I see is planned but as a one off I think it was really successful !!!

What do hired killers do on their days off? I've always wondered that and hey - here's a film ready to fill in the gaps. Chisato and Mahiro are teenagers who pull of a double life worthy of Donna Wilkes or Betsy Russell, as they're high school graduates with menial jobs by day and killing machines battling the yakuza by night, which arises when a battle breaks out at the theme maid cafe that they work at and gets worse from there. Martial artist and stunt person Saori Izawa - whose stunts were amongst the few highlights in Snake Eyes - plays the caustic Mahiro, with the laid-back Chisato played by Akari Takaishi. The team has great odd couple chemistry as well as the ability to move from moments of humor to action setpieces. The action moments take their time to get on screen, but when they do, they are more than worth the time we've spent with our lead characters. Known as Baby Walkure in its native Japan, this is the first - but by no means the last - film that we'll see exported to our shores by creative force Yûgo Sakamoto.

Interesting main characters, who are polar opposites in personality. They are quirky and kind of sympathetic, especially the less socially adept one. There is no significant backstory on their evolution into their "jobs" but just accept what it is and see how these two very different people mesh together. I really congratulate the filmmaker for the action choreography, which is extremely intricate and very well photographed. It is vastly better than most fight scenes in films these days, even very high budget ones. The story wasn't gripping, and there wasn't an opportunity for me, at least, to find much sympathy for anyone in the story. At least the dead were deserving of their demise. Still, I enjoyed it.

BABY ASSASSINS (C) is a Japanese made black comedy about two young female assassins who graduate high school, are forced to live with each other by their assassin company and are generally bored with their lives. They keep trying to find jobs but find themselves overcome with the tedium and take out their bosses. They spend a lot of time on the job searching aspect, including a good part of the movie at a maid café. As for a bigger conflict, one of the assassination jobs the girls complete puts them into trouble with local Yakuza - though it takes a convoluted and quirky path to finally have them all come together. Those expecting an action film should know it's just two action set pieces basically - an opening and closing one. The first is okay and the second comes pretty close to greatness. I recommend just checking out youtube for the two scenes and skipping the movie entirely. It's possible my disappointment can be chalked up to cultural differences here (comedy is always toughest to translate), but the black comedy here doesn't quite hit for me, the film meanders, and the action is ultimately a little too sparse.

This movie is not perfect first of, the slow pacing, messy writing, and dragged out scenes with decent fighting scenes. However what sells this movie to me is that these pong passed scenes gives you a sense of realism in a way that you don't often see in movies. Having the characters not doing much gives you multiple moments to think and really look into the situation where it doesn't really have to happen anything all the time which is just like real life. The actors in this movie is also a big factor of what makes this movie good, having the actors look like the age they are portraying is really well done in this movie and one of the main actors is not even a professional actor, she is an stunt actor so seeing someone new to this is really cooo on it's own as well as how the movie progresses throughout the story. Not great but definitely worth watching.

They are really cute maid. It is not a serious action movie. Just enjoy their pretty cute violence action. Don't think serious......They kill for a living not for fun. They have to be maid in maid cafe to be employee. Killing is just a part time job. Really funny.
