I was hoping for something more. I really do always go into Asylum movies hoping for the best, and this time was no exception. Problems arise very quickly with this attempt at making a good movie with the characters always seeming to be completely confused. It feels like the actors were not sure one scene to the next if they had been trained to fight yet, or if they were still supposed to be the victims. (The only time the "gentleman's" club is called the Kitty is by the girls as though that was actually from a different story that had to be changed, it is not even called that by the DJ working there. Also the girls spend 80% of the movie out of school, and the same percentage of the film in school uniforms that don't match.) There are all of the obligatory scenes that you would expect from a movie with this title, the training montage, the short skirts, the violence both sexual, and vigilantly, but the topper is the strange girl on girl love scene in a cage that could not have been at a worse place or time. Over all I did not Enjoy the movie for what it was, or what it could have been, and can not really recommend it to anyone. There is a dark side to this story that is well filmed, and hard to watch, but most people should never actually watch things like that, or think that other people should. If you want a good movie this is not it, mixed up, and badly edited trying to make little spaces seem large with no effects just looks like a play.

Had a bit more care been taken this might have been a good movie.

And when I saw it was made by The Asylum, I knew it was going to be that type of bad!

Not that the title Asian School Girls was not a big clue.
This movie falls into so many stereotypes, I'm surprise there wasn't a car chase were they could show off how awful Asians are suppose to be at driving, but I guess that would have put the budget at 20 dollars.
Give it to the house of Mockbusters they showed balls being straight up serious with this one.
It's almost like a Soft-core porn without the simulated sex scenes, completely geared towards anyone with a dragon chick fetish
In all fairness, the movie could have been better if the studio was not so obliviously exploiting Asain girls. It had a great Kill Bill-like revenge plot that focus more on hot chicks looking hot than paying homage to Asian cinema
It does have so bad it's good potential,and there is nudity, but it can leave you feeling shameful that you found pleasure in it.

viewable B-movie

A low-budget film - with second-hand furniture as a backdrop, local buildings as a location, a scenario with absurd accelerations in the story, an acceptable narrative, cute naïve conversations, quite a lot of boob eroticism. A B-movie that can be enjoyed on a lazy Sunday afternoon with your mind at zero.
spit on your grave this is not.

this was a diffcult movie to watch not because it was bad but because it was not bad enough. when i see a title like this i expect ghost panty levels of what the f#@k japan but instead i got a crappy boring r and r film. this move need to be more crazy and not boring like it was. the breakout scene is what the movie should have been. not just one scene of hot Asian girls killing people with swords that should have been the whole movie like suker punch crossed with spit on your grave.
the acting in this film is what you would expect crappy. the fx are better that most films by the asylum except one blood effect that took me out of the film.

Not groundbreaking, but entertaining enough for what it was...
paul_haakonsen11 October 2019
Right, well given the title of the movie, you might be thinking you're in for quite something else, but alas this actually is an action thriller, as listed on IMDb, and not some sleazy porn movie.
Sure, the movie does have its share of lewd pseudo explicit nudity in many scenes. Scenes which are quite unnecessary and really doesn't serve the movie any purpose, aside from showing off the main Asian female cast. Of course, there is some in the audience that will enjoy this, and director Lawrence Silverstein is definitely cashing in on that. I, personally, found it to be wholly unnecessary for the movie and had to fast forward through minutes of scantily clad naked dancing scenes.
Well, if you look past this pointless nudity and showing off the Asian female cast in this manner, then the movie was actually adequately entertaining for what it turned out to be. Sure, it was cheesy, campy and predictable, but it a B-movie fashion, where you enjoy these guilty pleasures of watching these low budget and often horrible movies. But once in a while, these B-movies actually turns out to be entertaining; and "Asian School Girls" was one such movie. God, that title still is abysmal to write.
The acting in the movie is pretty much as expected. The Asian female cast were doing fair enough jobs, but given the fact that there was a heap of pointless nudity, it sort of took away from the overall performance of these actresses. It made it sleazy in a sort of creepy manner. They acted well enough, performed the action and martial arts scenes well enough. Now, don't go expecting this to be a grand martial arts performance that will put the likes of Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Iko Uwais, Tony Jaa, etc. to shame, because it will not.
"Asian School Girls" has that special B-movie quality to it that makes it actually fun to watch, and it is worthwhile watching if you have nothing better laying around to watch.
I am rating the 2014 "Asian School Girls" movie five out of ten stars. Hardly a movie that I will be watching again though, but it proved entertaining and enjoyable enough for what it was.

these type of revenge films are not new to the audience this is not even a theatrical release its just missing Steven Seagal it features some violence & hot Asian girls nothing more the story is bad i have to agree with critics & other reviewers here i expected something worth the money but got nothing.
the plot:few school girls are raped by some gang now they want revenge after one of their friend is dead plus a cop is on their trail.
the cast:i would not mention all actors name except the girls they delivered some action specially Sam Aotaki.
if anyone is expecting some rated r scenes or nudity they will be disappointed its not a soft core flick move on please the film could have been turned out better if the makers did not repeat the old plot or add cheesy dialogs into it.
overall watch Asian School Girls 2014 only if you are stuck in nostalgic mode of 80s & fantasize about young girls in sexy clothes my rating is 4/10.

One of the Most Offensive Films I've Ever Seen
xavant_gardex29 March 2017
The title and cover art led me to believe this was going to be a fun, tongue-in-cheek Roger Corman/Tarantino-esque action flick. Perish that thought and burn it with fire.
"Asian School Girls" is literally about Asian schoolgirls...flaunting just about every Western stereotype about Asian women. That's it. It's not ironic or deliberately schlocky. This doesn't even qualify as one of those "so bad, it's good" films. The entire production has the appearance of a soft core porno that was hurriedly converted into a micro-budget revenge thriller after being rejected by HBO-Z. Which is a shame, considering had it stayed a porno, one could suspend a whole lot more disbelief. Like how four obvious porn actresses inked from head to toe could pass as 16 year-old highschool girls.
I've said enough. This is one of the most cringe-worthy, racist films I've watched in over 33 years of life. Anyone giving this garbage positive reviews is either a huge creep or friends with the director.

This is the worst film I've ever seen. On the same level as Spring Breakers. These 4 girls enter a club with fake IDs. The rest is soft-core porn, violence, and other graphic things. This shouldn't even be released, this should be BANNED. If I made a movie like this and pitched it to someone, it would get rejected immediately. From the graphic closeup of scratches on someone's crotch, to the scene where 2 of them make out and a bare breast can be seen, to the rape, this is nothing but hardcore porn. It's also a bit racist, and you can tell with the title and the movie itself. Finally, it's by The Asylum, need I say more? This'll hold a place in my heart in the most malicious sense. A pornographic, violent, quarter-racist monstrosity. I give it minus infinity out of 10. Basically Sharknado is pretty goddamn awful from what I've heard, but this...
Good girls go rogue for revenge
Chase_Witherspoon31 January 2024
A trio of mixed race Asian school girls (replete with plaid mini-skirts) take revenge on the crime syndicate responsible for their gang rape in this sordid ultra low budget thriller.
The trio are a force to be reckoned with as they utilise their remarkable martial arts skills and newly acquired leather attire (it's important to look the part) to their advantage, seducing those who will bring them closer to redemption. Despite the outrageous plot, gratuitous nudity and sexual violence, the story is generally coherent and reasonably engaging if technically limited by the micro-budget. Overall it plays like a live-action semi-erotic comic, complete with inept crooks and bloody, over the top violence.
If you're up for topless katana fights, junk twisting sadism and even some soft lesbian bondage, then you're in for a good time. Everyone else be warned and stay well away.

mybackup91121 December 2014
Here's the deal... I'm an old fart and I've been watching porn long before the Internet was a household norm and yes I watched this flick figuring it would be soft to medium porn. Now that I've admitted that, I wish to point out that I was NOT saying during the movie, "Don't just stand there, shoot the asshole(s)!" They wasted them and the fight scenes weren't as trite as they usually are... and not the typical stupid gunfire scene(s) where 'they can't hit the broad side of a barn 10 feet away.' The dialog and most scenes were somewhat credible, and the chicks were hot. I could post more but I'm telling why it was better than most B-movies, and not ruining the storyline for someone that might decide to watch it.
I don't know what people expected from a movie called "Asian School Girls"
Seth_Rogue_One24 March 2015
Looking at the ridiculously low user-rating and reading some of the reviews I can't help but to wonder what people actually expected from this movie.
Did they expect the sharp-witted dialogue of WES ANDERSON or mindbending twists of David LYNCH?
If so then that says more about them than this movie.
I know what I expected, girls that are easy on the eyes and that kicked some ass.
And guess what? My expectations came true.
I actually thought it was gonna be pretty bad or so bad it's good but it's actually half-way decent.
Yeah there are a little too long strip-scenes that probably could be cut down a little to keep the pace up the movie, but overall it was a pretty cool revenge action flick with "good enough" acting when it comes to ASYLUM standards.
And unlike many other ASYLUM movies that are incredibly monotone and repetitive this one almost constantly entertained and there was almost always something new happening.
No it's not a masterpiece but I think it served it's purpose and was well worth the watch.

YOUNG, HOT, AND ASIAN
nogodnomasters7 September 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Four Asian looking high school girls go to a nightclub and get drugged and raped. Suzy (Belle Hengsathorn) does the classical Asian thing and jumps from a building. The remaining three decide to go "I Spit on Your Grave" all over their assailants...if they can find them. Hunting them down means working at a strip joint, buying weapons, and learning to fight at night while going to school during the day...and without their parents noticing their absence.
The plot is fairly absurd. While the tattooed girls dress the part, i.e. white shirts, short plaid skirts, they are not the classical Japanese girls who giggle and act shy. This story takes place in L.A. The acting is bad. In one scene the girls are dressed one way and then when the camera returns, they are dressed differently. The first time the girls killed someone, I was laughing out loud, it was so bad.
8 stars for completely all the wrong reasons. Not recommended for serious viewers. It is Asylum.
Perv Guide: F-bomb, rape, nudity (Sam Aotaki, Catherine Hyein Kim, Minnie Scarlet + uncredited strippers)

It wasn't bad as a low budget movie
DrDumb25 April 2024
The rating is 3.4? Com'n people, it's a low budget film so what do you expect. It wasn't bad don't expect it to be a brilliant one. Storyline was easy to understand; a lot of violence and torture, and so on. I thought it was an erotica movie but I didn't see any sexually explicit scenes just some topless and sexy scenes so it wasn't. I believe it's a movie with crime, violence and action. As a cheap budget film, the acting was bad. Those actors/actresses were like amateurs and had no previous training before making the film. The background music was loud and messy, like what you would normally expect from some "cheap and sleazy" movies.

reallydarkfilm18 August 2014
9 out of 10 because the acting was off a little. Overall love this movie. I'm a filmmaker and I know how hard it is to make a movie. This movie had all the elements. Great looking cast both male and female. Great camera work and it has action. Great job to the cast and crew. Can't wait to see more. Sure it's not a muti million dollar movie. There's hot Asian women kicking ass in the streets of Los Angeles. Nope they don't look like high school girls. College would've been more believable. There's action drama supence. What more can you ask for. It's an indie that's gritty. If you don't like gritty movies this maybe to much for you. And those giving bad reviews I ask you what movie have you made?
