Sister Street Fighter: Hanging by a Thread

Jim McLennan from the website "Girls with Guns" gave the film two and a half stars out of four, criticizing its lack of originality: "...if you watch this back to back with the original, it's almost going to seem like a mockbuster rather than a sequel, albeit made by much the same people. One semi-significant difference is that replacing Sonny Chiba, you have Kurata, playing a martial-arts master who joins the Osone gang with his own agenda. The opponents for our heroine are still the same selection of fighters with different talents, each introduced with a caption describing their origin. But these seem significantly more restrained than first time round, outside of the transsexual killer with her lethal fingernails".^[2] Don Anelli, writing for the "Asian Movie Pulse", opined: "While on the surface providing pretty much exactly what's needed in terms of fine martial arts battles and a simplistic story to set that up, Sister Street Fighter 2 comes off as a lower version of the original in most regards. As it's still worthwhile and watchable, give this a chance if you're a fan of the first one or a general film of these kinds of films from that era, while viewers who aren't into martial arts efforts or weren't fans of the original should heed caution".^[3]
