This episode starts of a la James Bond, as Zero Woman (Mikiyo Ono) is swimming, apparently alone, then all hell breaks loose.
The diminutive beauty appears to meet her match with a character taken right from the WWE. But, she manages to prevail. As she does with a really dumb hit-man who lets her get all the way across the room to get to her gun. Dude, you really should find another line of work.
The big drawback to the film is that the action comes rarely and the time is filled with dreams and flashbacks to others. Do we really need to spend valuable film stock watching someone eat noodles and look out the window? We get the impression that Zero Woman is a really unhappy agent. But, that is not surprising when a guy she is having sex with gets blown away before he can finish the job, leaving her high and dry. You really felt for the waiter that tried to cheer this babe up. Even he couldn't get a smile out of her; and he couldn't bring home the bacon, either.
I do have to say that I really enjoyed the photography of Hiroshi Takase. The picture was incredibly beautiful.
