Kekkô Kamen: Surprise

By this fourth installment of the campy naked super-heroine saga, the novelty is pretty much wearing off. The third film switched the locale from a celebrity school to a swim school; this one moves it yet again to a music school – but the rest of the proceedings are still pretty much the same. The young girls are still tortured by the masochistic instructors and principals, and Kekko comes to their rescue with her nunchakus and magic muff. Added for no real reason is an outside agent come to investigate the school but who never really figures in the plot. The third film has some honest comedy that was genuinely amusing beyond the overall campiness of the idea and its execution; this fourth film just stretches the concept into the obligatory and its lack of creativity lends little interest to the adventure.
