What it’s about. Due to a combination of bad writing, unnecessary and distracting directorial gimmicks (split screens, black & white, slow motion, etc.) and very inept subtitling, "West Down Girls" is almost completely impossible to follow, but I think it has something to do with the rivalry between two girls who are members of opposing street gangs, and the arrival on the scene of a third girl who is the childhood friend of one of them and the sister of the other. The (very few) action scenes are a complete mess. The film is basically an over-the-top melodrama and makes very little sense. I was too frustrated to even enjoy the beauty of Cheryl Yang and Annie Wu.
Who’s in it. West Town Girls stars Annie Wu as Porsch, Cheryl Yang as Gucci, Suzanne Shu-shen Hsiao as Pigeon (as Liliy Hsiao) and Yi-Fei Chen as Captain Lee Chun Kwon, among others.
