The greatest movie ever made..!

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Breath-taking African scenery and Tanya Roberts, one of the most beautiful women ever to appear on a movie screen, provide lots of lovely things to look at but don't QUITE distract one from the central truth of this movie, which is that it stinks. The plot is simplistic, predictable, paint-by-numbers 80s action junk about evil mercenaries doing something evil, the dialogue is so bad it almost works as camp or self-parody, and the primary musical theme is so annoying and unsuited to the milieu it needs muting. You almost want to extract images of Tanya running about in her Fredrick's of Zimbabwe bra top and thong, taking showers under waterfalls, riding her zebras, and bouncing, bouncing, always bouncing... and put them to better music, with the dialogue cut out. The movie itself is just jaw-droppingly awful, but Tanya is just so fabulous, no (hetero male) viewer cares, as the camera lingers on her glorious body and gazes into her empty blue eyes, so blank and uncluttered by comprehension or thought. TV D-lister Ted Wass is along as her erstwhile male lead, and is so amazingly bland on-screen he makes Tanya look charismatic by comparison, no small feat. As adventure fiction, it's pretty much garbage. Enjoy the eye candy.

I have seen this movie 25 years later on DVD.I am really astonished when I saw 4.3 user rating on top of the page. I am sure this movie deserves much more than that. It would worth more than 4.3 points even if there were no animals . I give 10 points mainly because of the animals .I must say that this is film about kind of a lady jungle hero.I would recommend this film to children if there were no savage scenes such as shooting,bombing and killing both innocent people and animals.Sheena (Tanya Roberts) is a sexy young girl who brought up by native Africans, has special kinetic powers and can communicate with animals.First of all it is not a boring movie.Landscape is amazing. As for the animals, they are incredible. Director John Guillermin did a superb job in this film with these animals.I will not go into detail about the film but recommend you to buy or rent DVD and watch this movie.

The film for the period was good. It was an adaptation of the women in the movie Tarzan. Sheena had excellent environments and photographs but the base was good. This film had the beautiful actress Tanya Roberts and its thanks. The environments show a 'africa and uncontaminated healthy and the link between this woman and Tarzan animals. The Charlie's angels tried to make this movie for 80 years could be fine. The actress was physically a little 'lean arms were fairly skeletal and the breast was little short, was not a woman but increased for the role that was to run and in one thousand ups went well. The film, I repeat, was a response to male Tarzan although as usual on this website prefers to lay sea everything that was part of anni'80. It 'a tradition!!

This film is painful to watch most of the time. However, it is so bad, that anyone with even a little taste in cinema will start howling with laughter. The director clearly used as few words as possible to direct this film, and the acting is truly awful, making this film unintentionally funny. Ted Wass actually does act in the first scene and in the last, both shot on the same airplane, leading me to suspect that those were filmed before he met his co-star, the truly inept Tanya Roberts. After meeting her, it is apparent that Wass realized just how bad an actress she was, and gave up trying, producing a monotone performance for the rest of the film. Tanya Roberts may have been good looking but her acting range is limited to one expression where she screws her face up in an effort to look like she is concentrating (I thought she might just have been constipated throughout the filming since that is what her one facial expression suggested to me). The best actress in this whole mess, Elizabeth of Toro is killed off only a quarter of the way through the film, which brings the level of acting way down. The production clearly was filmed on a shoestring budget where they couldn't afford to re-shoot anything. Even the casual viewer in the theater is able to spot the wire the model helicopter is being guided by when it crashes (your not supposed to be able to see that), and there is never any kind of a herd of animals on screen in this African jungle movie, just one of any type at a time. If you watch carefully you will see the occasional shadow on the ground which doesn't belong to any actor in the scene(it must be a crew member's). The plot is blindingly obvious with absolutely no surprises or dramatic tension. The script is also very poor, with cheesy dialog running throughout it, and you can predict lines and jokes far in advance of their being said. Actually, the limited script helps as it means you don't have to suffer through Roberts trying to speak. So go to the film and laugh at it, and learn what not to do when producing a movie.
