Hello, Traxians!
A few days ago, we released what some are calling a new RiffTrax Instant Classic: In the Line of Duty 2: The Super Cops.
Before we go further, let’s clarify: you don’t need to seek out a movie called In the Line of Duty to enjoy In the Line of Duty II: The Super Cops, because it’s not really a sequel to anything.
You also don’t need to see SuperCop, because it’s not connected to that movie. Except that Michelle Yeoh is in both of them, but don’t let that confuse you. If it helps clear things up, this movie was originally released in Hong Kong as Yes, Madam! That doesn’t help clear things up? Yeah, it doesn’t.
Once you stop worrying about the dozens of confusing titles it’s been given in different countries and releases, there’s a lot to love about In the Line of Duty II: The Super Cops. First of all, it’s got young Michelle Yeoh and young Cynthia Rothrock kicking lots of ass. A likely Oscar nominee and our pal Rothrock, doing roundhouse kicks together! Speaking of Cynthia Rothrock, she comes to this movie equipped with a posh British accent. It’s dubbing, sure, but kinda makes you wish she’d had the same voice for Santa’s Summer House.
Thi action-packed, stunt-filled, martial arts extravaganza is totally bananas, and as is typical when we so thoroughly enjoy a movie like this, the riffing flows that much more easily. Here's the first five minutes just for you, dearest Traxians!
