Editorial Review:
Jane Fonda's memorable, zero-gravity striptease during the opening credits of this 1968 Roger Vadim movie is the closest the film comes to a liberated marriage of wit and sex. Based on a French comic strip, the story concerns the adventures of a 41st-century woman, who pretty much gets it on with whomever asks. The sci-fi sets were pretty interesting at the time, though they look rather anachronistic now. Appreciated today mostly as a camp classic, the movie is actually more trying than anything else. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - too edited from movie I saw at theater
I wish the r rated version I saw at the theater was on dvd. Fonda in the movie I saw at the theater left nothing to the imagination as I saw her completely naked from head to toe & she was beautiful. This PG version is just campy with none of her nudity. If you like this type of movie you would be better off buying flesh gordon.
Rating:  - NO "plot," but that first scene...
I'll never be politically correct. DEAL with it. But I purchased Barbarella for the space ship/shag carpet/striptease, and...well, I've wasted money on other things before.
Rating: - Campy but so much fun!

Rating:  - Jane Fonda Should Have Been Punished, If Not For Treason, For Starring In "Barbarella"
"Barbarella" is extremely degrading to women. It begins with the title character (played by a very young Jane Fonda) performing a strip tease during the credits. Barbarella is extremely silly and ignorant. She can't fix anything when it is broken and is always becoming trapped in a dangerous predicament. A man is always having to rescue her. Unable to say "No," she rewards them with sexual favors. Is this the type of heroine we want our daughters of this age, or any age, to emulate?

Rating: - Barbarella: Queen of the Galaxy
Jane Fonda's transition from innocence to experience---a documentary of the anti-culture doing its thing. It is Fonda showing daddy and the Hollywood establishment that she is a big girl and will take pleasure where she finds it. As Queen of the Galaxy, she does just that. Durand-Durand is the actor who played Friar Lawrence in Romeo and Juliet. He tries to kill Barbarella with ecstasy only to have his machine shorted out by this insatiable woman. I saw Barbarella at a drive-in. I was drunk and had to watch it again ... Read More
