Protégé de la Rose Noire

Co-director Donnie Yen, who also functioned as action director, had previously had a small role in Black Rose II as a boxing school owner.

The girls call Jim Lo to help them escape from Rose Manor but by the time he digs his way into the building they have come to enjoy the comforts there and no longer wish to leave.

They throw him in the bathtub but when he attempts to change his clothes he only finds women's fashion options apart from a suit for the DC Comics character Robin.

In their book Historical Dictionary of Hong Kong Cinema, authors Lisa Odham Stokes and Rachel Braaten write, "Donnie Yen's giddy action spoof Protege de la Rose Noire/Gin chap hak moooi gwai/Jian xi hei mei gui (2004) combined Lau's approach with action filmmaking and capitalized on the popularity of the Twins (Gillian Chung and Charlene Choi); in this latest version Teresa Mo plays 'Black Rose.'

The opening credits are a throwback to the days of Chan Po-chu with an update to the Powerpuff Girls and Charlie's Angels (the movies and the TV series).
