Jane Fonda was not only an excellent actress but a beautiful, if opinonated (remember Hanoi Jane?), woman. I watched this as a teenager and despite the "striptease" this has to be one of her worst. Hormones be damned, watching this was a waste of time. If you like Fonda, try Klute. She was an excellent actress --- but no one could survive this mess.

I purchased this movie because I always thought Jane Fonda was very sexy. I still believe that but this movie sucked. It was corny and everything from Barbarella's carpeted space ship to the costumes made me think "low budget".
You have to really be a Jane Fonda fan to tolerate this mess and even her many physical attributes could not make the movie worth seeing.

The zero gravity spacesuit striptease in the opening title is the best thing about this film. The rest is pure camp, but it's so bad it's not even bad enough to be funny. The plot, dialogue, acting, sets, special effects, and music are all horribly bad and boring. The most memorable line is, "An angel doesn't make love, he is love." But let me tell you, that angel was making plenty of love; unfortunately we never got to see any of it. Watching this movie now, I can see that the only reason it created such a stir in 1968 was because it snuck in soft porn to mainstream theaters. But this film is droll French humor; it has no morals or heart and as such is not a reflection of the "free love" and liberation of the times. What's worse, even the villains in this film are absurd and boring. If I need a fix of bad science fiction, I'd rather watch The Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

"Barbarella" next to "Cat Ballou" has to be Jane Fonda's signature film. What's amazing about both of those movies is that Fonda is playing the same role as the boot-wearing, gun-loaded, desperado heroine (even though they're in different genres) and they may be the two deepest roles that she's ever played. Looking through the still photos to this film Fonda's performance is almost like Dustin Hoffman in "The Graduate": It was a lightingbolt of a role that cascades on not only the movies, but pop culture in the late-60's. I agree with Jeff from Portland: The picture on the DVD is great and I believe this film needs to be re-released and be loaded with special features. There are two things I take notice on this: How great it looks (for which I have gone over) and the costumes. Out of all the costumes that Fonda wears the one that I'm floored by is the one where she wears a white unitard with breastplated armor and a black cloak wrapped at the back, a red utility breif belt, and black boots with the red stripe down the middle (not only that but it came with red fold-down crowns on the top of the boots; creating a stirup look like you would see on a baseball uniform). Seriously, should that unitard be in leather and not in cotton/spandex? Given the fact that it would be torn up in the scene between Fonda and the birds. On a personal note, I'm getting sick of hearing most of these reviewers here still badmouthing Fonda for what she did against Vietman. Those people should get a life (not to mention a brain) and realize that Muhammad Ali did the same thing and he almost went to jail and couldn't fight for two years while Fonda was no where near there. Where's the outrage in that? Anyway, back to the movie. I think it deserves to be a sci-fi classic while it has to come out as a Special Edition DVD. I know because I think the trailer to this film made me breathless.

This is a spectacular picture for stoned college freshmen of all ages. The script ain't exactly Shakepeare, but that's not why the college freshmen are watching it. An important film...NOT!
