Bitch Slap Review

Bitch Slap directed by Rick Jacobson

Bitch Slap is exactly what it looks like, one hell of a low-budget action flick with girls, guns, cleavage and violence.  This is like a Russ Myer film with a bigger budget for a new generation. I think if Russ were still alive he would be all over this one.

Our three beauties are Hel (Erin Cummings), Camero (America Olivo) and Trixie (Julia Voth), we meet them in the middle of the desert and they are searching for something. Also, they are all lesbians and they aren’t shy about their life style of choice. The story is told with flashbacks, but it starts with the most recent and they work their way back to the beginning of their story. Back in the present, two of our three heroines are beating the hell out of a grimy looking punk and his Asian schoolgirl girlfriend who followed them to steal what it is the ladies are looking for.

The film is actually good. The acting by our main characters is pretty good, but as you see more of the side characters from the flash backs, well we can call their acting abilities subpar at best. I think the CGI is a little overused and the green screen backgrounds really got to me after a while, they are incredibly fake looking, they worked in Sin City and 300, but I just can’t manage to look past it in Bitch Slap.

The film will keep most of you entertained, especially the guys watching. Even though it has a few flaws, it is a fun, low-budget action flick that’s full of energy, blood, boobs and bullets…so what if the over all film doesn’t make a whole lot of sense? Oh, there’s also a water fight scene and I couldn’t help but wonder where they were getting all of these containers of water from, but in the end I didn’t care and neither will you.

I give Rick Jacobson’s Bitch Slap a 3.5 out of 5.
