Its kitsch 1968 aesthetic, groovy music and the sight of a young Jane Fonda as a sex kitten space agent will mean this sci-fi romp has curiosity value for some but otherwise Barbarella, directed by Fonda's then husband, is leaden and only occasionally mildly amusing - one scene that opens with Jane Fonda's Barbarella singing operatically might raise a smirk.
