Iron Pussy is the attractive spy girl who has everything that a girl should be - She has both perfect manner and figure. She is now ready for her next mission - disguising as a maid in a mansion of Madam Pompadoy to investigate her suspicious business. Being very patient from an evil senior maid who keeps bullying her, Iron Pussy is finally destined to meet Tang, the hunk son of Madam Pompadoy. At that moment, Iron Pussy realizes the conflict in her heart between love and her own mission that needs to be completed.
Really disappointing movie, one joke stretched out for an hour too long - would have made a great 30 minute short. Opens very promisingly - the scene where the hero is working at 7-11 and gets the call from the Government and transforms into Iron Pussy is funny, and there is a good lookalike Thai cabinet- the Thaksin is worryingly lifelike! After that though, I was thinking about where we should go next - and Lek didn't even retain her enthusiasm for as long as me.
Wait for '2046' to come out on DVD instead - wonderful movie, as was 'Closer', I thought.
