Apparently, America gets itself into a second civil war in 2017. Mercenary, bounty hunter, and bar owner, Barb Wire, lives in the last free city of Steel Harbor. She needs to get some special contact lenses and some woman named Cora to Canada for some reason or another, to help her ex-lover, Axel, who I guess fought in the civil war with her or something. I don't know. Either this movie doesn't really try to make any of its plot clear, or it does try and fails spectacularly.
1996's Barb Wire is a piece of crap. This is a cinematic dumpster, and not the kind that's fun to dive in. There is literally not a single worthwhile moment or element in this film, from its bland and lifeless characters, to its pointlessly nonsensical plot, to its anonymously-styled action scenes that completely fail to register. This is one of the worst major releases of the 1990's, a total steaming turd that can't even be repurposed as fertilizer. Pamela Anderson Lee is never going to win a Daytime Emmy, but she certainly deserves better than this stinker.
