This is a supposed action comedy starring Sandra Ng, Ann Bridgewater, Elsie Chan and Suki Kwan as female cops who attempt to take on gang members. This plot device sounds interesting enough, but what lacks is a solid and intriguing plot that generates suspense. What also lacks is some hardcore action and much-needed humor.The story is slow at times and the attempted drama doesn't gain much traction due to the uneven plot. Much of the story is concentrated on Sandra Ng and Ann Bridgewater, while Elsie Chan and Suki Kwan weren't emphasized enough. A host of other well-known HK actors appear including Ricky Hui, Billy Lau and Lowell Lo, but too bad they weren't utilized enough as well.Overall, it is a slow action comedy. You wouldn't be missing much if you skip this movie over.Grade D-

"Operation Pink Squad" is a strange HK mix of action, drama and lowbrow comedy. The cover features four girls, and the Pink Squad IS made of four girls, but two of them aren't really important and are soon forgotten. The main leads are Anne Bridgewater and Sandra Ng. Anne has the lion's share of the action - the film begins with an incredible fight scene (her vs. Jeffrey Falcon), but sadly she has only two more fights after that: the one has no proper ending and the other is too silly (she is disguised as a clown). Sandra is in charge of the comic and dramatic elements, and she handles them well, in fact she is the main reason they work at all. Overall, the film is a mixed bag, and probably works better if you know that you should not expect a lot of action. (**1/2)
