4K UHD Review - China O'Brien II

X2

In "China O'Brien," the small town of Beaver Creek was saved due to the efforts of an ex-cop and her pals, who managed to rid the area of criminal influence. However, peace could never last for long, forcing the eponymous character to return to action in "China O'Brien II." Co-writer/director Robert Clouse doesn't have the benefit of hindsight with the sequel, which was shot at the same time as the first "China O'Brien," tasked with creating two defined adventures for star Cynthia Rothrock and her martial art moves. Perhaps a little break between chapters was necessary, as Clouse delivers a similar study of supercop action in "China O'Brien II," only the follow-up is less interested in the needs of pace and a tiny bit sloppier in execution. There's still the central appeal of Rothrock in motion, kicking and punching bad guys, but the helmer almost seems to be winging it at times, which slows the movie to a full stop before physical activity wakes it up again.
