Unabashed Jane Fonda Hotness
Added 2/22/2010
Fabulous movie. Old-skool Star Trek has a threesome with the Labyrinth and Conan the Barbarian, while Boris Vallejo only wishes he was there ...and the deliciously badass sex-kitten Barbarella is born. Full-on seventies kitsch, with shag carpet rocket-ship interiors, killer dolls, rockstar costumes, and unabashed Jane Fonda hotness.
And let's not forget the raddest, most titillating title sequence ever...

Barbarella
Added 1/30/2010
Unless your into the kitchy, sexist period, this may not appeal 2 all. I enjoyed it because it was so over the top. Jane Fonda, obviously still learning her craft, didn't have a lot of range. She mostly just showed off her body in a new outfit, almost, every new scene. The storyline was laughable, but for all you Music fans, this is were Duran Duran got their name from. As long as you don't take it seriously, it is very campy.

Campy, psychedelic SciFi treat.

When she was still young and gorgeous, Jane Fonda got the starring role in Barbarella. Barbarella is the main character in this film, who's on a space mission to locate Durand-Durand, a villain who's trying to take over the world. Barbarella wears outrageously sexy outfits, travels in a wildly decorated spaceship, and meets many strange creatures along the way, that she has to do battle with.
Barbarella's sex appeal is off-the-charts, and this film is oozing with a piping-hot erotic ambiance. Interestingly though, Barbarella has sex with other characters, in a most futuristic way. She takes a pill to 'tune-in' to her partner's psyche. And no bodily contact takes place during this sort of 'sex', except hand-clasping. Apparently, orgasm is achieved when the sex partners complete an ecstatic fusion, of their minds and souls. However, Barbarella does enjoy a sexual tryst via the 'old-fashioned way', with a man she meets during her travels.
Jane Fonda was brilliantly cast as the heroic, buxom Barbarella. Her on-screen charisma, is vibrant and compelling. Milo O'Shea as the evil Durand-Durand, does a decent job in his role. So does John Phillip Law, as the pure and gentle angel, Pygar. His perfect body and square-jawed, handsome face, made him a devilishly attractive 'angel'. Anita Pallenberg played the Great Tyrant, with femme fatale relish. The lesbian sexual undertones between her and Barbarella, were absolutely sizzling.
One of the best things about this movie, is the incredible special effects and gadgetry. Long before the flashy Star Wars series premiered, Barbarella contained some amazingly creative costumes, decorations, and scenery in general. The overall tone of this film, was deeply influenced by the uninhibited adventurous spirit, of the late 60s. Especially with regards to its bold, exciting sexual themes. For those who are Jane Fonda fans, and/or are devotees of 60s SciFi films, Barbarella is a fun-filled, juicy slice of 60s camp psychedelia.

Man movie, corny, cheap sets, corny story lines. Along the lines of Quest for Fire.
