This is the third Filipino George Montgomery war movie I've seen, the others being "The Steel Claw" and "From Hell To Borneo". Like those two, this particular one manages to be pretty bad. It has a promising premise, with its title suggesting sexy women pressed into combat. But all of the potential manages to be utterly wasted. The women in the movie don't start wearing uniforms and wielding guns until more than two thirds of the movie is over. And when they do, they practically do NOTHING - it's up to Montgomery to do 99% of the work. None of the action in the movie is the least bit exciting, and the comedy is utterly lame and even offensive at times. Movie also suffers from extremely low production values, with the camera jammed close-up to the actors almost all of the time being just one sign of the limited funds. If you want to see a movie where someone disguised as a priest trains some decidedly non-combative people into being soldiers, track down the spaghetti western "Guns For San Sebastian".
