Never Say Regret	comment	Never Say Regret, also known as Escape to Hell is a 1990 action movie starring Yukari Oshima, Max Mok and Kara Hui (who co-starred with Oshima in Burning Ambition released the previous year).When Okura (Oshima), a Japanese tourist and the only daughter of a wealthy Japanese tycoon gets framed for drug possession in mainland China and thrown into a corrupt prison, a team of mercenaries led by Jimmy (Max Mok) had to bust her out. But as they're making their escape through the border towards Hong Kong, the triad leader responsible for the frame-up who is a rival of Okura's father, shows up in Hong Kong as well, at which point Okura and Jimmy (who had his own reasons opposing the triads) decide to take the law into their own hands and shoot their way to revenge.

Never Say Regret / int_21e5b9c7	comment	Failed a Spot Check: Okura, for some reason, NEVER considered checking her coat’s pockets before leaving her hotel, and at no point did she ever noticed the drugs inside while taking a ride from her hotel to the airport, queuing towards the ticket counter, and making her way past airport security. Keep in mind that unlike other movies involving a frame-up which drugs would be hidden in some concealed pockets or stitched into the victim’s attire, here the drugs are simply slipped in a side pocket of Okura’s coat.
