Siskel & Ebert's bad review

Siskel & Ebert laughed at “Sheena” on their show in 1984 and wrote it off as a “bad movie.” You can watch their review here (it's only 2.5 minutes): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2734Wkj2zg

Despite their negative appraisal, "Sheena" is very effective for what it is: a comic-based flick about a beautiful, but formidable jungle woman akin to Tarzan, a journalist she meets (Ted Wass) and their fight against evil oppressors. What were they expecting, “Chariots of Fire” or “Gandhi”? Films should be critiqued according to what they ARE and aspire to achieve, not what they aren’t. My appraisal of 7/10 reflects the happy medium between the Grade B plot, dialog & acting and the Grade A African locations (Kenya), animals, score and Ms. Roberts.
