Unfortunately, they invariably fail.&#8221; It&#8217;s certainly not for all tastes, and is so bad (in so many ways) that you may groan more than you laugh &#8212; but there&#8217;s something endearing about the sight of strong women wrestling their way to the top, beating up bad guys when their boyfriends wimp out, and joining forces like a true superhero duo. Many watch this film for the extended female wrestling scenes (which become tedious if you&#8217;re not a fan), but its primary enjoyment (such as it is) really comes from the AWFUL dubbing.
