Movie Reviews of Tank Girl
Movie Review: Lori Petty, Lori Petty
Summary: 5 Stars
GREAT!!!! I think Lorie Petty is a great Actress that is so under appreciated and under utilized . She is a really good actress . I would love to see her in more films. This movie is so different from any movie I have ever seen, I loved it .
Not only does it entertain but it also has a message, well really more than one message. If you appreciate movies that are different and not the same old cookie cutter movie than this one is for you! It is original, It is funny , serious , stupid and crazy but when you put it altogether you get a great Sci-Fi movie with a lot of heart. If you have never seen this movie you really should!
I can't say enough about this movie with out telling you about it. Just take a look at the cover art and you will get the idea. I really had to hunt to find this movie on DVD and I'm so glad I did. Enjoy
Movie Review: Tank Girl DVD! no extras???
Summary: 5 Stars
From the first minute I saw the movie I was hooked, the charcters are fantastic and the film just so rich in design and content.It's also one of the funniest things i've seen in ages with the humour pouring from it!
I was however sad to hear that many scenes had been cut from the film and that a DVD would never be released. I started up an internet protest to get MGM to release it on DVD with the footage and here it is! This DVD is out due to the fans who protested for it!
I am still angry that have not included ANY extras or the cut footage and after much arguing with MGM i dont think they ever will replace the footage! Anyway check out www.tankgirldvd.8m.com to see what bits they have not included on this disk and sign our online from to try to get them to put more stuff on the disk! theres still time!!
Movie Review: Some problems with this DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
Completely unrelated to the actual movie which is GREAT!, this DVD is the only one I have ever had that has problems playing. Not in my portable DVD player, not in the Sony reference player, but always hangs the player when play is attempted in the Sony 300+1 model 860 CD changer. And it hangs sometimes in the Daewoo player, but not more than 1 in ten starts.Other than that this is action packed and great fun. Lori Petty brings a spark to her role that is marvelous. Set in a post apocalyptic frame of reference where water is the commodity that controls power in the society, Lori Petty's character rocks as a rebel against corrupt societal control.
Awesome for teens plus, probably not great for the kiddlets.
Movie Review: Campy? Yes! Fun? Definitely!
Summary: 5 Stars
A lot of people really don't like this movie. In fact it has made some of the lists of the worst movies ever made.
I totally disagree!!! This is definitely a funky, campy, hilarious, silly, and predictable movie that is just plain fun! When I saw it in the theater we just about fell out of our chairs because we were laughing so hard. I believe the only reason we weren't thrown out of the theater is because everyone else was laughing and enjoying the movie just as much as we were.
I do keep putting this one in the DVD player and watching it over and over. Defintely one to put in when you want to enjoy a funny movie and don't want to think.
Movie Review: Comedy and Costumes
Summary: 5 Stars
Tank Girl is fabulous, as long as you go in wanting to see a comedy film full of cheap thrills, killer props, and a super wardrobe. The evil-bad guy with the "Water and Power" company is a relatively uninteresting villan, which makes the conflict rather one-sided. Lori Petty makes a perfect Tank Girl, a bold and daring heroine, with her mad-stylin' tank that matches her look perfectlly. While the plot isn't entirely original either, it doesn't really matter. The props and outfits, plus entertaining dialouge makes up for it entirely. I also loved how it sticks to its comic-roots and uses comic panels intermitely to add extra flair.
This movie rules. period.
