China Cat (1978)

Sequel of The Jade Pussycat and this is something different and interesting. This time this isn't a Johnny Wadd's investigation but another detective agency trying to get the statue from him. Best way to resume this film is Charlie's Angels for adult

The story start when Charlie call his agency to give a new mission to his Charlie's Devils and like in Charlie's Angels we don't see his face and he is busy with a woman. As I said the mission is to get the Jade Pussycat. 

The first assignment is for Sandi and it's an easy one, getting her secretary job back from Wadd. Of course she's hired.

Paula Wain

Next Shari must seduce Wadd to get access to his apartment (to steal or copy his key I guess). Johnny being Johnny this isn't that hard to complete.

John Holmes and Jennifer Richards

Next part of the plan takes two teams. Sinthia keeps Wadd busy while Barbi and Shari search the jade statue in his apartment. 

Eileen Wells

While searching Barbi and Shari fell on a key (the key with SFAC written on it) so one goes to try to get some information about it and the other stay to continue searching. Barbi finally find the bag but Wadd arrives at the same time, a chance she was prepared for this 😏  

 

Cris Cassidy

After something I won't spoil for you she takes the bag and goes back to the agency filled with a feeling of accomplishment... too bad this is the wrong statue in the bag.

The plan didn't succeed but Charlie has another ace in his deck, he send an Asian hit woman to go get the Jade Pussycat... she failed too of course.

That was sure enjoyable to have something different since I just watched ten of them in a row and it's a very good Charlie's Angels' take-off. As usual the casting is great (sadly Desiree Cousteau is wasted in a nothing role) and it did a good job as a direct sequel.

Not the best film in the series but it easily in the top three with The Jade Pussycat and Tell Them Johnny Wadd is Here.
