Blood on the Canvas: Karate Girl

kg

I don’t know about you, but watching an awesome, balls-to-the-wall fight gets me pumped up and ready to take on the world. This week’s Blood on the Canvas highlights not one, but two, talented women in Karate Girl. In this Japanese film, Rina Takeda and Haruna Tobimatsu play sisters who’ve been separated after an evil butthole kills their father. Despite being apart for many years, the sisters fight their way back to each other and avenge their father. All in all Karate Girl is a solid film, with a solid, if a bit unimaginative, story and some great fight scenes- including a couple of brawls which stand head and shoulders above the rest. Below you will find a 12 minute supercut of the best fights in Karate Girl, including two separate smackdowns and then the lengthy, spectacularly choreographed finale. Enjoy!

This is the Action Flick Chick, and you’ve just been kicked in the ass!

    Wow, really? These fight scenes were … Not good. These girls obviously have zero ability to fight and don’t even pretend very well. Give me Gina Carano any day, or even Milla Jovovich for crying out loud.
