Scorpion

Japanese action flick about a girl criminal who the cops are after. I now realize this is part four of a long series of films about a female prisoner (701), but it kind of stands on its own if you know that going in. She had broken out of prison it seems – which is why they were hunting her in the first place. They rough her up pretty bad and some guy that works at a strip club finds her and hides her away to recover. Apparently this guy has been in trouble with the law before, so the cops kind of know his shtick. They also rough him up pretty bad. They track him to his hideout where he's got the girl stashed. I realized about now, that she really hasn't spoken through this entire film. Hilarious. They catch the guy and then bring him in for questioning (aka beating). Then they roll his mom into the room to guilt him into a confession. Scorpion spends some time in prison and then the true scorpion comes to the forefront. I won't ruin the ending, in case you've seen the other three. It's a decent movie, but I will now have to go back and see the other ones for the full story.
