Cherry 2000 (1988)
Director: Steve DeJarnatt
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
After a minimal release in the US this tilt at cultish sci-fi wnet straight to video in the UK. Its a post-apocalyptic adventure, from the director of Miracle Mile, that plays like a jauntier version of Mad Max. Griffith sports bright red hair as the eponymous heroine, a female mercenary charged with breaking into the villains' robot-packed warehouse; and much of the action takes place in striking desert landscapes. Plus marks for the presence of the old-timers, but overall it's a walk on the mild side.Author: TJ
