Sweet Karma - 2009 ***


I'm not sure what I was expecting from this film, but it was actually pretty good and the story was quite a complex one. It might be worth watching more than once. It centres around a beautiful Russian girl (shown above with barely anything on of course) who wants revenge for her sister's murder. She goes about this by infiltrating a dodgy underworld strip club and becoming one of the dancers in an effort to get near to the perpetrators of the crime. Now I know what you are thinking, and no, it's not cheesy, or even particularly sexy. It actually shows a pretty realistic picture of the sex trade and how girls end up in this horrible situation that they cannot escape. Added to which as it's not American it doesn't try and rely on bimbos who can't act and instead focuses on proper talent.
