Tank Girl | 1995 | R | - 3.6.5
Sci-fi film, based upon the comic strip featuring a no-holds-barred feminist.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - In a brothel, plenty of near-nudity in a short scene. A man is forced to disrobe -- briefly seen from the back and from the front, with hands covering the critical area. A woman shown in bra briefly. A little bit of kissing goes on. Tank Girl is in love with a mutant half man/half kangaroo.
VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - It's really a film about blowing stuff up. There are shootings, explosions, some dismembered bodies, a small girl placed in danger of drowning, a man squashed under truck wheels, a man's hand is skewered, a man walks on glass in his bare feet. Then there's this device that is plunged into people and extracts the water from their bodies.
LANGUAGE 5 - The F-word is used once and scatological language is used frequently throughout the film.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Survival of the fittest.
MESSAGE - Good triumphs over Evil, even when Good is unconventional.
CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
Gladiator II - 2.7.2
Wicked: Part I - 3.4.2
Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin. - 1.5.3
Emilia Pérez - 6.6.7
