| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Intent to Kill |
|---|
Tracy Lords plays a cop. Scott Patterson is her partner and live-in lover for the past several years. The two are trying to bring down a Vietnamese criminal gang. But one day she comes home early and catches her man in bed with another woman. She turns her anger into vengeance on the job--and savagely beats up a criminal being arrested. The police captain played by Yaphet Kotto thinks she is a little too stressed out and takes her off the gang story. She turns to other crimes, but secretly keeps working on bringing down the gang. She is ultimately involved in their eventual capture.
