Tank Girl

Pros: female lead action hero
Cons: plot, acting, storyline

You haven't seen it rain for 30 years. You live on a planet that has taken on battle with many comets and lost every one. You can't get water except from one really bad monopolist. Your arch-rival is a nemesis not to be taken lightly. If all of these...

Pros: Post-Apocalypse, Lori Petty, Soundtrack
Cons: Not overly memorable

Back when adaptations were becoming the rage, Tank Girl will be remembered as one of the more outright failures...well, remembered by those who recall it at all. Like the similar Barb Wire (1996), it bombed bigtime at the box-office. Unlike ...

Pros: Lori Petty's terrific portrayal of Tank Girl. Good effects, makeup and set design.
Cons: Gets a little too silly for its own good at a few points.

Tank Girl is an energetic and extremely quirky little post-apocalyptic film. Most people I know who have seen it either love it or hate it, with no one taking the middle road.

Based on a British comic strip by the same name and...

Pros: well, it's Tank Girl, innit!
Cons: poor storyline, even I could have thought of a better one!

I actually read some of the Tank Girl comics a few years ago and this movie is quite a watered-down portrayal of that violent, anarchistic, anything-goes universe. That said, I still like the movie and of course I own a copy.

The movie is a...

Pros: cool costumes, great music, and a girl driving a tank
Cons: none

"Tank Girl" brings to life the wacky Austrailian comic-book heroine and some of her friends. It's weird, crazy, and tons of fun, much like the comic book. It's the action movie for girls!

Lori Petty plays Rebecca, aka Tank Girl....

Pros: She kicks evil villian butt! great everything! really funny!
Cons: none

Tank Girl is Lori Petty!

Recommend?
----------------
Yes! I would highly recommend this movie because it is funny, hilarious, and just out right gut busting!

Stars:

Lori Petty

Pros: Wild crazy fun! Colorful and imaginative.
Cons: May be a little too weird for some.

While this movie isn't for everyone, it was definitely the movie for me. It's just pure unadulterated outrageous fun! And outrageous is the operative term here. It's based off of a comic by the same name, and while I haven't read the comic myself, I hear...

Pros: The TWISTED METAL of dark comedies
Cons: Too odd for some

Tank Girl (1995, R)

I don't know what it is. Maybe it's just that I'm a New Jersey mallrat. Maybe it's the fact that I'm a lifeless film geek who can fall in love with a story about a girl and her tank. Then again, maybe I'm just...

Pros: Great costumes, excellent cast
Cons:

Lori Petty was the best pick for this movie. The others who tried to compete for this role were Janeane Garaffalo, Demi Moore, Drew Barrymore and Christina Applegate. No one even came close when it came time for casting. Don't get me wrong, I love the...

Pros: Characters, plotlines, costumes, animation intermingled, soundtrack, and laughs galore!
Cons: There's no sequal to it yet.

From the first time I ever saw this movie, I fell in love with it. I bought the DVD recently so I could watch it as much as I liked. At this point I believe I've watched it about 5 times since buying it. I love this movie so much because if you break it ...

Pros: Lori Petty's red bra
Cons: Don't get me started

Normally, I'm all about any movie with a sexy woman in the lead, especially when intercourse with a marsupial is involved. However, I feel that Tank Girl failed me.

First of all, if you're one of those people who are interested in plot, then...

Pros: Grrl Power
Cons: the "monsters" are pretty un-monster like

One of my all-time favorite "chick-flix" is hopefully sitting in your VCR right now. If not, run out to the video store and rent or buy it now. The casting director for this movie is blessed for having picked Lori Petty for the part of Tank...

Pros: A funny movie with great use of color.
Cons: Not very true to the comic....but what movie is?

I don't care what critics think. I never have. Which is probably why my favorite movies are all considered "cult" classics...the critics pan them while they are, in fact, highly enjoyable romps through fantasyland. This is one such...

Pros: FUn to Watch
Cons: reworked doom and gloom

Tank girl..... just what can you say about the title. A girl and her tank
not and girl and her puppy so that should give you a clue that this is not on of your run of the mill I'm a girl and need a guy to protect me film...
As true to the doom...

Pros: none
Cons: confusing plot; makes no sense

I saw this movie because my boyfriend wanted to. I could not even get into this movie. The plot made no sense to me. This is one of the worst movies that I have ever seen. A silent movie would have been better then this. I would not recommend anyone...
