So much fun. A real Female superhero

Yes you read that right. Nine!! Oh it's B-grade. Cheesy. And so much fun. It's more than the 3 stars some give it. Pamela does MUCH more than show some cleavage. She even does many of her own stunts. Back when stunts were dangerous too. You can do FAR worse than this film. Especially lately.

Wham! Bam! Thank you Pam!

To be perfectly honest with you, my appreciation of this movie is almost solely based on Pamela Anderson's breasts. I'm not going to waste your time and claim anything else. Take Pammy out of 'Barb Wire' and you are left with something highly mediocre. The story, action and other characters are simply by-the-numbers and I really cannot be bothered discussing them. It's Pamela's film pure and simple.

It wouldn't be over-stating it to say that I thought the opening credit sequence was quite good. Pamela in tight black leather, half out of her top being soaked by a hose? I would say there's four good ideas in there, all in one. Unfortunately, this is where the film peaks and we are only two minutes in. Sadly, a story kicks in at this point and spoils things. But seriously Ms Anderson is perfect for this flick. Her pneumatic figure couldn't be any better for the role she's playing. She is quite ridiculously sexy throughout the entire picture and the film frankly flags when she is not on screen. She is more than serviceable in this action role too. It's worth pointing out here that I am a big Russ Meyer fan and, therefore, it's perhaps no surprise that I have a huge weakness for dangerous, sexy, buxom women. The biggest compliment I can pay Pammy, therefore, is that on this showing she would not have looked out of place as one of the lead bad girls in 'Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!' High praise but quite frankly true.

The only criticism I can level at Pamela here is she doesn't get naked enough.

fully B

It's 2017 during the Second American Civil War. The "Congressional Directorate" had overthrown the American democracy. Steel Harbor is the last free city. Barb Wire (Pamela Anderson) runs a mercenary operation out of her nightclub.

This is safely in the unmitigated B-movie territories. At least, the filmmaker seems to be fully aware of its cartoon comics aspects. It doesn't pull back from it. It embraces the Nazi allusions and Anderson's exaggerated curves. In fact, her acting is half achieved by her two best assets. Sadly, she doesn't haven't much else to fill the screen with the rest. She should be trying to inject comedy no matter how cheesy it sounds. It can't really get much cheesier and that's not this movie's weakness. This movie is just not able to go full camp and Pamela is not a good enough actress. I would compare this to Johnny Mnemonic (1995) where Keanu Reeves is simply better. It's no contest. It eventually loses steam in the second half.
