Barb Wire

“Don't call me babe!”

Certified Crap. CrapScore 66, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
Pamela Anderson runs a nightclub in a fascist future and gets dragged into a resistance plot with suspiciously familiar romantic complications. Leather, explosions and extravagant posing turn this Casablanca-shaped action comic into a lively midnight detour.
