Editorial Review: Amazon.com: The Year is 2033. Earth has been clobbered with a comet, civilization has been destroyed, and it hasn't rained in 11 years. Nearly all the water on the planet is controlled by the evil Water and Power company, which is in turn controlled by the even more evil Kesslee (Malcolm McDowell). Who stands in the way? Some mysterious mutants called the Rippers and, of course, Tank Girl. Lori Petty plays Tank Girl, the wisecracking, defiant heart of the movie, as kind of an inner child gone wild. Unfortunately Petty can't quite carry a movie on her own--her zingers frequently fall flat and she seems to be continually worried that we still like her. Luckily there's Naomi Watts as Jet Girl to save the day: smart, shy, and inherently way more appealing than Tank Girl. Tank Girl is based on the comic of the same name, and it is visually an eye-popper. It's worth watching for the insane set and costume designs alone. --Ali Davis Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Happy I found a copy of thisIt's a sweet movie and the person that had it keep the movie in great condition. Rating: - classic film babyone of my favorite movies of all time.... you know that is if you like low budget b movies. overall, it's funny and it is great for a collector like me. Rating: - Best movie, everThis is seriously the best movie ever made! Well, maybe not. But it is one of the most fun. You can't go wrong with Tank Girl. Minus one star for the DVD for those of us who remember the laserdisc. When are they going to release a special edition? Rating:  - A Cool Comic ClassicI have to admit I'm shocked and a little appalled that this film doesn't get more recognition than it deserves. It's based around the comic character of the same name, the comic design was based around the punk era look and many will recognise that the art and stories are particularly anarchic and totally absurd. Unlike many other comic book to film adaptations, Tank Girl keeps true to its comic roots, if only to fade away to tone down the sex a bit. During the course of the film, it tries to keep ... Read More Rating: - Keeping comic book movies comicalThis campy cult classic keeps on delivering. Maybe parts of the sound track are stuck in the mid-90s. Despite that, the after-the-crash survivalism (a la Mad Max or Resident Evil), the evil corporate lords, and the over-the top goofiness all remain as fresh as Tank Girl's mouth. The plot? Well, it doesn't spoil anything to say that the good guys win in the end. This movie isn't about its plot. Instead, it shows the power of brashness in its purest known form.
