"She" is a wild, tacky, cheesy amalgam of bizarre ideas, "inspired" by the writings of H. Rider Haggard. Hot off her appearance in "Conan the Barbarian", Sandahl Bergman stars as the title character. "She" is a goddess-warrior in a post-apocalypse (here, it's called "post-cancellation") future, populated by a rogues' gallery of characters.
Two brothers, played by David Goss and Harrison Muller, set out to rescue their kidnapped sister (Elena Wiedermann) from the clutches of marauding villains. Along the way, they will form an alliance with She, and have to deal with "pretty people" who are werewolves by night, a giant of a man (Mario Pedone) who wears a tutu, a mad scientist (Donald Hodson), and a comedy relief bridge guard (David Kirk Traylor) who actually multiplies if you cut off a part of his body.
This is good fun, at least to a degree. It does run the risk of being tiresome at times. It also goes on a little long for a movie with a "so bad it's good" type of appeal. But if you'd like to relax with something that won't overtax your brain, "She" delivers some amusing, silly entertainment, complete with a rock / pop score by Rick Wakeman and songs by artists like Justin Hayward and Motorhead. The production and costume design are most amusing, and viewers can have a high old time chortling over what passes for "acting" in this flick. That said, some performers (like Hodson and Traylor) do come off better than others. Gordon Mitchell is effective as an imposing commanding officer.
While more violent than expected, this was not a problem for this viewer. Audiences should find it fairly agreeable in terms of the whole "post-apocalypse cheese" genre.
