VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Freaktana A Major Disappointment

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

leplatypus For the purist, this one shouldn't be considered as a super heroine but like a basic masked vigilante (she has no super powers). So maybe Famke's charm and kick skills can do the trick for a few minutes but honestly after nearly one hour i was just terribly bored... Loeb may be an award winning comics book writer, here he just tells nothing: sure the movie is funky and colored as it's about fashion, spotlight and nightclubs but the action and characters are totally forgettable! I'm sure that even the comics are more dynamic than this dreadful stinker!

gridoon "Model By Day" is not a very good movie: it's clumsily directed, poorly scripted (who could the "mystery opponent" be? Hmmm, look at the cast), the editing is a disaster, roughly 70% of the action appears to have been performed by stunt doubles, and the cinematography is annoyingly soft-focus. What it does offer, however, is Famke Janssen, one of the sexiest actresses alive in my opinion, in a leather outfit and butt-kicking mode. This movie was made one year before "Goldeneye", and I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the people who picked her for the role of Xenia Onatopp had seen her here first: those eyes...those legs...that attitude...and ESPECIALLY that biting of her lower lip that she does so often...watch this movie if only to see her. It also probably served as an inspiration for "Black Scorpion" from 1995 and the subsequent TV series of the same name. (**)

ProfessorPeach Despite the credits proclaiming otherwise, this film was almost certainly written, cast, lit, filmed, scored and edited by a fourteen-year-old boy. No other excuse exists. The crash helmet is the killer costume addition. Sure, it's got eye candy. However, Famke Janssen was just starting to get a foot in Hollywood's door then and can be forgiven. Sean Young, on the other hand, can't. Shannon Tweed has been happily knocking out rubbish like this for ever so there's no change for her. Imagine a really poor pilot episode for some awful new Saturday afternoon series for teens. Then imagine switching on to it when it's halfway through. That's what it's like to watch this from the beginning.

General Comment This was shown on the TV last week. Unusual movie, nice to look at, but predictable.It's easy to call this movie absurd. Well, I suppose it is. But then, so is a plot about a bloke getting dressed up as a bat and fighting another bloke dressed up as a penguin. (Not that I'm drawing any kind of comparison with the Batman movies. But therein lies the inspiration, I think).
