Released in the UK in 2015, but shot in 2011, Warrioress has digital video quality that's so 2007, but does make up for it with impressive fight choreography and a crunchy sound design. The cinematography is just above Irish television i'd say. Don't know why i said that, but i did. Though there are some great vistas that raise this bar. The tone of the film is playful and the screenplay and actors are in unison achieving that. The cast exactly know what kind of film this is and pull it off.

For a film titled Warrioress, it succeeds at meeting expectations, which let's be honest, are satisfying those with preferences to big, strong women let's just say. The costume design throughout is cute, inventive and flattering with even a little upskirt to please the weebs and some of the women fighting are genuine martial arts experts which just give me so many jingles in the legitimacies let me tell you.

Thanks to the entertaining choreography on display, the film moves along at a brisk pace. One of the worst things these bargain bin films can do for me is to not live up to its advertising and Warrioress' box art definitely is a little overcompensating, but i have sure as hell seen worser examples of mis marketing. If you want Xena warrior princess set on the English coast, they by all means go crazy with this.

My quick rating - 3,8/10. The women that fought in this movie were actually quite good, especially Cecily Fay, but beyond that, it wasn't a movie. They attempted to piece together a plot but to no avail. It was more of a showcase of what I can only assume was a group of people, mostly women, that trained at a martial arts dojo of some skill and decided to make a movie. If there was a tiny budget, and some written story, the actresses (i do not mention actors, the men in this were horrid) could have pulled it off. Remember her name though, she should get some work at some point for a good look with well rounded fighting skills.

Downloaded and watched this last night - in a hurry and couldn't find anything better.Read the IMDb reviews first so had an idea what to expect.I don't mind this sort of film usually - the trick is to lower your expectations and try to meet it on its own level.There will always be something to enjoy - some interesting scenery,amusing dialogue,a very pretty girl,a good bit of action or a story which holds the attention but oh dear what a dog's breakfast. Rotten dialogue,unintelligible plot,primary school nativity play acting,seedy production and direction.I just managed the first half and spent the rest of the evening staring at the wall and enjoying the relief.Cecily Fay is a champion in the Indonesian martial art of Pencak Silat and she was 35 when this film was shot.She "wrote" it as well and obviously it was designed to be a vehicle for her to show off her skills and nothing else (and to be fair there was nothing else so it succeeded on that front and for that reason I gave it a 3) Surely people in the film industry (and presumably there must have been one involved in this debacle) must by now realise that you cannot make a medieval/fantasy/martial art type film with a molecular budget- it is never going to work.This is a film that should never have been made.
