Barbarella (1968)
4/10
Classic erotic adventure is now dated and silly
21 May 2005
"Barbarella" was famous (or rather infamous) when it came out because Jane Fonda was naked, her husband directed the movie and it was therefore quite controversial. Now it's come out that she/her book/tabloid magazines claim Roger Vadim used to make her have threesomes with other women. Somehow, it seems appropriate given the nature of this movie.

It's intended to be an erotic adventure and the opening credits depict Fonda cruising around floating through her space craft absolutely naked.

That's really all the movie is. Fonda running around (or floating around) wearing little, if anything at all.

If that's your sort of thing, you'll probably dig this. Otherwise, stay far, far away.

2.5/5
