"Michelle Yeoh and Cynthia Rothrock are the perfect team-up, showcasing their outstanding martial arts ability as a couple of ass-kicking cops in this 80s action movie classic. With electric fight choreography, appearances from Hong Kong legends Sammo Hung and Tsui Hark, this film is pure Hong Kong action movie gold. With one of the most exhilarating climactic fight sequences!" - Nida Manzoor, Chicks, Kicks & Flicks season curator and director of Polite Society

Michelle Yeoh and Cynthia Rothrock star as a couple of tough-as-nails police inspectors investigating the murder of a British agent in this incredible action showcase, shot in the inimitable Hong Kong style of the time.

Launching both a successful franchise (the In the Line of Duty series) as well as an entire sub-genre of action cinema (“girls-with-guns” – a genre which did not truly exist before this film), Yes, Madam! is one of the most important and influential action films of its era.
