Here's a review of a film that's all too typical of the types of releases we're seeing this year.
Title: Shark Special 56: Cybe-Guard Gandiva
Starring: Asami
Directed by: Katsuyuki Hasegawa
Running time: Two hours
There isn't much that's special about Shark Special 56: Cybe-Guard Gandiva other than perhaps the special effects. This movie, about a super heroine taking on some funnily dressed baddies in a sci-fi setting, focuses on three rape scenes that are stagy and get tiresome. All three rapes have less tension than a national election where you just know who's going to win (sorry, I couldn't resist).
The star, Asami, is attractive enough and has some nice moments where there is a true look of anguish on her pretty face. But she rarely says much more than some grunts and groans and often doesn't effectively sell her scenes.
Don't even ask me about the plot. This sci-fi adventure has something to do with Asami battling villains who wear Birdman-type helmets. Asami, who's dressed in a black vinyl jacket with a white front, a white body suit, black stockings and black boots, starts the film with some decent fight scenes against the male villains. But the men ultimately overpower Asami and hold her down in a gold chair.
A pudgy guy (an Attackers regular) leans down and starts licking the left side of Asami's pretty face. He then gets a big vibrator and runs it against Asami's clothed breasts. He pulls down Asami's top to expose her left breast and runs the vibrator against her nipple. The villain moves down to Asami's lower area and adjusts Asami's body suit so her pussy is exposed. The loudly humming vibrator is then run against Asami's pussy in a good scene with some great squirming and jerking by Asami. When she climaxes, it's believable.
Asami is thrown to a mattress on the floor and some villains pin her on her back. Some sci-fi magic helps pudgy guy strip to his black undies and he climbs on top of Asami, strangling her neck and licking her choking face. There's a great moment here when the pudgy villain grabs Asami's head and forces some French kisses on the struggling heroine, at times licking her gritted teeth.
The villains move Asami into a seated position and force her to blow the pudgy guy. The villains then hold Asami in different positions such as missionary and doggie as the pudgy guy rapes her. Asami is still fully dressed here, with the bottom of her body suit adjusted to expose her pussy for rape. It isn't an issue, though, as Asami looks quite sexy in her heroine outfit. The rapist finishes by cumming in Asami's pussy, and then forcing Asami to wipe the cum on her middle left finger and place the cum-stained finger in her mouth.
The movie's next rape is a gang rape. Four villains grab Asami and expose her body, lifting her light blue kimono up to reveal her bare breasts and her white panties. Asami squeals and protests as the four guys lick her body, sucking on her tits and forcing her to kiss one guy. Asami is forced to blow one guy, and then her panties are removed and she gets fucked by different rapists in various positions such as missionary, doggie and reverse cowgirl. This segment concludes with a missionary screwing, with the villains holding Asami down and one guy sucking on her right breast as a rapist nails her. Once again, the rape finishes with a guy cumming in Asami's pussy.
A fight scene follows and then it's time for another gang rape. Asami is once again wearing her sexy black and white outfit from the first scene. She begins by confronting a guy with a powerful sword that sends off funny sound waves. The sound waves make Asami drop her sword and wrap her arms around herself, shivering. Shuddering Asami glares at the villain as the sword's waves overpower her. Her eyes then roll back in her head and she collapses.
When Asami awakens, three guys are fondling and licking her body, with the pudgy guy once again licking Asami's pretty face. Asami's jacket is stripped off and some type of lubricant is poured on her body suit. The guys adjust the body suit to expose Asami's breasts and pussy so they can finger her, lick her pussy and suck on her tits. Asami is forced to blow all of the guys, and then her top is pulled down and different guys do her in positions like doggy, missionary and reverse cowgirl, occasionally blowing a second guy as she gets tapped. At this point, she isn't really being restrained, and the bonkings look more like vanilla sex than rape.
For what it's worth, the non-sex moments in Shark Special 56 include some interesting visual effects and opening credits that are pretty funky. Too bad the producers didn't put as much effort into the sex scenes.
My grade: C
You have to wonder if some of the guys at Attackers have lost their mojo. It sure looks like they wanted to make a better movie. Without understanding the language, it was clear some effort had gone into telling the story (whatever it's about) and the production values were top notch. Unfortunately, the rape scenes were predictable and uninspired and generally lacked edge. Shark Special 56: Cybe-Guard Gandiva has a few decent moments, which I'll clip for YouTied, but I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend it.
