Rachel Talalay’s TANK GIRL
(R, 1995, 104 min)
By 2033, Earth is a wasteland—its rain cycle destroyed by a comet, leaving the planet a barren desert. With water in short supply, the tyrannical Kesslee (Malcolm McDowell) runs the show as the head of the all-powerful Water & Power Corporation, controlling every drop of precious H2O. But one thing Kesslee didn’t count on? Tank Girl (Lori Petty) and her badass sidekick, Jet Girl (Naomi Watts), refusing to bow down. They team up with the mysterious rebel Rippers, a band of wild, genetically enhanced fighters, to take down the corrupt regime. Tank Girl is a high-octane, punk rock explosion of action, humor, and rebellion that made it a must-see for fans of '90s counter-culture. With its irreverent tone, unforgettable characters, and unapologetic style, it’s a film that celebrates defying authority with outrageous fun. Whether it’s Tank Girl’s attitude or the madcap adventure, Tank Girl is a gleeful reminder that sometimes the most unexpected heroes are the ones who get the job done.
