Wonderful character development!

What a waste of my time!!!

Too much of everything

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Shy Japanese schoolgirl Yoshie (adorable Noriko Kijima) survives a near fatal blow to the head. After undergoing extensive training and receiving a few body modifications, Yoshie decides to get revenge on the heinous criminals who killed her friend Ami and left her for dead.Loaded with plenty of outrageous violence and over-the-top excessive gore, but seriously marred by puerile humor (Yoshie has a machine gun that juts out of her butt), histrionic overacting, cartoonishly evil villains, dodgy CGI effects, childish sadism, dopey flashbacks, and an absolutely ridiculous plot (characters who were chopped up and bumped off in "The Machine Girl" are somehow both miraculously alive and intact!), this mercifully brief 22-minute short is quite simply too dumb and inane to recapture the infectiously trashy thrills of "The Machine Girl."

We have the villains and the guy who made the machine gun for Machine girl all brought back to life. It's not explained why. The villains spend a lot of time mugging at the camera (they know this short sucks and don't bother) and yeah, the gun maker puts a machine gun in the girl's ass. We don't see him put it in there.The ass machine gun was kind of embarrassing to watch. I was worried that someone would come into the room and see me watching it. "What the hell are you watching?"The only bit I did like is when the villains eyes pop out, that made me chuckle. And we don't see Ami in the movie at all, just in stock footage and we have a Lion King moment at the end. The film ends with the girl dancing away in the credits.

I really liked "Machine Girl", but this short was too ridiculous to enjoy. Somebody must have had some money left over after the main feature was in the can, and wanted to give his girlfriend a little more exposure.I would be lying if I said that I didn't enjoy much of Yoshie's training, and her peppy dances, but the plot(?), writing(?) and acting(?) ruined it for me. I would rather have seen a short in which Yoshie was saved from death, and trained to become a good basketball player, in Ami's honor. Or beach volleyball player ... that would have worked, too.If you watch this, do yourself a favor: ignore the story, and focus on the visuals, if you know what I mean ... and I think you do.

A 22 minutes masterpiece. Fans of Machine Girl, will surely enjoy this short cult flick. First of all, this is not a sequel to The Machine Girl. Its a spin off. The story revolves of Ami's friend(Noriko) who was killed and stabbed in the head by the Yakuza Gang Leaders Wife and after a week, she was saved by a mechanice(You don't say and I saw him being chopped off by Shurikens. The stupidity started to increase.) So, she remembered about her past and decided to avenge her friend Ami. Spoiling this short movie will ruin your motivation. Okay, it was entertaining and funny at the same time. Especially the Machine Gun on her ass. Mostly the short movie succeeded on comedy but not on action. The special effects are low and the acting is stupid(Really, Really Bad=Entertainment). Recommended for Fans.
