Review of Sheena

Sheena (1984)
Jim can't fix it for the bad guys
25 May 2002
Although Tanya Roberts is a terrible actress, "Sheena" isn't unenjoyable. The photography is beautiful, there's a nice score by Richard Hartley and you can get a laugh at the scene where a helicopter is downed by some very obviously fake birds. British viewers will be intrigued by actor John Forgeham (who plays the evil Colonel Jorgensen) - he's a dead ringer for ageing DJ Jimmy Saville (of "Jim'll Fix It" fame).

Rather amusingly, critic Pauline Kael, ruthless scourge of many films better than this, actually liked "Sheena"!
