Silk
When the heat's on no one's smoother than...
Directed by Cirio H. Santiago
Produced by Concorde Pictures, Solar Pictures
A brisk 1980s action-crime thriller centered on a tough female cop uncovering a larger criminal conspiracy, driven by momentum and genre convention rather than depth.
Silk, the toughest cop in Honolulu, busts small time smugglers only to reveal a larger syndicate smuggling Asian mobsters into the States by buying the identities of Hawaiian citizens.
