'Barb Wire' is a 1996 film based on the Dark Horse comic book series Barb Wire. The film was produced by Brad Wyman and starred Pamela Anderson. The movie was a vehicle for Baywatch star Anderson, intended to enable her to cross over from television to movie stardom. The acting in the movie wasn't half bad it was decent to average really, Which are by; Pamela Anderson as Barbara "Barb Wire" (she really thin well decent acted fun, blonde/Sexy action babe and kept me want to watch this movie, her voice was really dark & mystery which I liked & didn't like and she was different a brilliant bounty hurting action-packed), Temuera Morrison, Victoria Rowell, Jack Noseworthy, Xander Berkeley, Steve Railsback, Udo Kier and the rest of the unknown cast members were alright in the film, the Movie is like a post-apocalyptic remake of "Casablanca" set in a strip club & all that. The genre (which I thought the Action & Sci-Fi blended in fabulously) in the Movie Action & Sci-Fi was brilliant as the Action was really decent (mostly on Pamela Anderson) & the Sci-Fi is bloody excellent in this movie. The Movie is set in the future as the movie reminds me of 'The Terminator', other action & other superhero like 'The Batmen' & 'Superman' before this movie was of course, it had some black dark humour in the movie, the movie is more of a rare guilty pleasure that will only satisfy some people (like me & others) as I don't think this movie is all that bad a people say it is, but the movie can get to fast (as it was really fast-pacing on scene to scene & got really muddling) & that it got really odd at times, the storyline/plot was average but did keep me on interest, it was a really hot & sexy movie as what Pamela Anderson was wearing was totally hot & sexy & she was a sex symbol in 90's (with her well know role on Baywatch & her well know sex tape in the 90's) and overall the movie wasn't that bad as people say & I thought Pamela Anderson was fantastic in the role and movie.

The Film most Famous & notable for its opening first part which was a turn on for man (as people say) but I didn't think it was Pamela Anderson (Bless her she had a miscarriage on the set of film which I really feel for & you got to give her some credit she did her best in here role, which was perfect for here) best but she did do great & wear a hot outfit (Not saying) I think the movie (to Me) is a camp classic & is a great film off Pamela Anderson as I think she is a ace actress (she not the best but decent) and she was amazing in the movie, I thought it was brilliantly directed & well acted film, don't get me wrong it had its moment (mostly at the end of the film) as I think the story/background just got plain/boring & I think they just didn't bother any more, while being cheesy & stupid is was a shame that the ending was shit but I loved the quote that was said at the end of the movie and the movie did spark up with a full good old action & music setting towards the movie, with great theme & sexy/hot outfit this movie was enjoyable to watch.
