Travelers: Dimensional Police (2013)

Travelers [sic] uses almost every trick in the big book of Japanese sci-fi to keep your attention: hip-shaking leather-clad ladies doing low-angle high kicks, CGI explosions, speeding-tunnel time travel, skipping through parallel dimensions, a gothic Lolita with psychic powers, betrayals, exploding daggers and blood. There's also a lot of story packed in that would've fared better if split into a mini-series.
The result is somehow semi-enjoyable in a time-wasting kind of way. The director is a tokusatsu veteran and so brings that kind of fun to the proceedings. Without that, it would suffer.

2½ unnecessary wet cleavage shots out of 5

You'll remember her as the Invisible Dopant.

I'm not dissing wet cleavage but it was such shameless titillation that it drew too much attention to itself. I prefer my wet cleavage more subtle. :)

I didn't recognise her. It's been too long...
