The title character injects energy, colour, and confusion into every scene she is in and she is in nearly every scene. On the few occasions when she takes a break, Malcolm McDowell plays… Malcolm McDowell. That sneer hasn’t changed since Clockwork Orange (1971).
While the story and characters are derived from a comic book series, the film lacks the subtlety and finesse of that original! It is all ‘Slam! Bam! Wham!’ and repeat for its runtime.
There is no story just action and reaction. There are no characters just a blur of movement. But there is plenty of that. I watched it with one eye while doing crossword puzzles. It didn’t distract me. Although I admit I enjoyed some of Tank Girl’s antics.
