Lady Scorpions

Cynthia Rothrock has aged: at 67, she can no longer fight as she did in her youth.

She has difficulty delivering a high kick. Not to mention that she's put on weight...

The film is uninteresting, the story shaky and the acting barely average. Add some annoying musical score.

I couldn't get to the end of the film, it's too boring to watch.

The 10 stars are probably bought, or they're people who are affiliated with the movie crew or producer.

Don't waste your time, this film is bad. But if you need help to have a good sleeping night, try it :)

And Mrs Rothrock should retire from making action and karate films.

Cynthia Rothrock should team up with Steven Seagal. He's been through the struggles of navigating the Medicare/Medicaid network. Finding a suitable long-term elder care facility.

Back in the day, she kicked some serious ass and now she can barely kick above her expanding waistline. Watching these aging "action heroes" stumble through their moves is cringeworthy and sad. Using their name recognition to boost careers of other, 2nd rate actors. Best advice from their agents would have been to invest in real estate. Quit the acting gig while you were on the top. Not to end your career on lows like these less than "B" grade movies.

And yes, I've said the same thing about Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Nicolas Cage, etc. Are you simply pandering to the Boomers?

I have no idea why the director producer or writer decided to make her the lead actress has gone to crap even though her whole life she's just been a television martial artist and has never for tournaments in like fighting tournaments so really martial arts was really for tv she wants some championships in form whatever the heck that is.

She can no longer fight now for TV either she can't kick very high at all so they've had to use it because it show this movie is not CGI. You can tell her they've had to use Body doubles a couple times for her kick because you watch her most of the time her kicks are pathetic, she could barely run and her acting is really gone downhill.

Meanwhile, you have the girl that should've been a lead actress Caitlyn numerous arts championships, starting at the age of six decided at the age of 24 to retire and get into stunt work, which got her into some roles. She's actually a pretty good actress. She is an amazing martial artist and you could see it in her punches it blows my mind that she doesn't have the lead role, they should've made her for her daughter and her grandma her mother getting information from her separately and her having the call and that's about it so just really having Grandma's voice and then maybe at the end the Grandma comes and helps this whole thing you make Cynthia the lead actress in this when you have lightning in a bottle that you're not using if you use it and wrote the script a little bit differently you could've had a movie that was like a seven piece of garbage so I'm not sure if Cynthia's dating or married to producer Director writer I hope you got something like that I was really looking forward to this movie and then I got very disappointed to.

Well, the 2024 crime action movie "Lady Scorpions" was not a movie that I was familiar with. And since it was a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give the movie a fair chance.

I am a little bit amazed with the fact that writers Stephen Carolan, Bruce Del Castillo and H. Daniel Gross collectively couldn't manage to churn out a more profound or layered script and storyline. Sure, the movie was watchable and entertaining enough for what it was, but it just wasn't a memorable movie. In fact, "Lady Scorpions" is a movie that you will watch once, then bag and tag it. However, it should be noted that if you enjoy the semi-plotless martial arts movies from the late 1980s and early 1990s, then you might get a bigger kick out of this movie. The movie was light in terms of storyline and narrative, and was carried by the fight scenes and action.

Of the entire cast ensemble, I was only familiar with Jeff Fahey and Cynthia Rothrock. The acting performances in the movie were fair, but nothing outstanding or memorable though.

The movie does have a fair amount of action and fighting, and it is essentially that which keeps the movie afloat.

Watchable for what it was, though I doubt that I will ever return to watch "Lady Scorpions" a second time.

My rating of director Bruce Del Castillo, whom also wrote and starred in the movie, movie "Lady Scorpions" lands on bland five out of ten stars.

Alena Moore (Cynthia Rothrock) is a drug enforcement agent. She has been to get criminal head Lucien (Jeff Fahey) for years.

Lucien warns her to stay away as he has a big deal planned. His wayward son has different ideas, knowing that Alena will not stop interfering.

He attacks Alena's daughter Lacy (Caitlin Dechelle) and then abducts the grandaughter.

Now both Alena and Lacy who are both experts at martial arts unite to find her.

Lucien is not pleased that his son has gone rogue.

Lady Scorpions is a generic action thriller with an awful script. Director Bruce Del Castillo who has worked on some Quentin Tarantino movies, tips a hat to films like Kill Bill.

There is plenty of action, Cynthia Rothrock fans would be happy. There is no denying that she is over the hill. The rest would find it disappointing. Some of the movie is just dumb.
