THE ADVENTURES OF IRON P*SSY - any good?
Saw a listing for this R3 Pal DVD on the eThai site:

Found a writeup for this movie on another site (see below) and it sounds entertaining. Anyone else see this? Is it worth getting?
======================================================
The Adventures of Iron P*ssy
She’s gorgeous, she’s dangerous – and she sings! Male convenience store clerk by day, fabulous drag queen/ secret agent by night, Iron P*ssy must yet again come to the rescue! In this feature-length reprise, award-winning Thai director Apichatpong Weerasethakul and Michael Shaowanasai (who also plays Iron P*ssy) have created a spy-thriller-kung-fu-musical-western-forbidden-love story that, like our heroine, defies convention.
Iron P*ssy is called into action to investigate a secret cache of foreign money that has turned up in Thailand’s banking system. Drug money? Funding for terrorism? Our fearless (and always impeccably dressed) heroine must go undercover and infiltrate socialite Madam Pomidoy’s mansion, posing as Lamduan, a maid. But Iron P*ssy is no mere maid, she’s also a fabulous singer, as well as the epitome of the ideal Thai woman! When Pomidoy’s crooked son, Tang, falls for her (and she falls for him), Iron P*ssy is torn to discover the truth about Tang…and about herself! In a shocking and glorious ending, Iron P*ssy’s sidekick Pew comes to the rescue, and Madame Pomidoy, Tang, and Iron P*ssy herself will never be the same!
THE ADVENTURES OF IRON P*SSY is a non-stop, karate-chopping, glamorous romp, with smart editing and a sharp sense of humor. (Especially clever are the dubbed vocal sounds that are way over the top.) Iron P*ssy sings, dances…and loves…her way to a safer world!
