I love B movies, but I would probably consider this a C movie with B movie quality and direction. This movie is an instant cult classic in my book. Its got the sin city vibe going on (which really makes this movie), a semi solid story, beautiful women, guns and gore. What is not to like about this movie? The actresses that lead the movie are actually very good actors and make the story entertaining to keep focused and engaged to keep watching. You really have to be a sexploitation fan to appreciate this. If not, its not going to be entertaining at all. I just hope there is a second movie in the future. Awesome flick!

Three women with bad attitudes and awesome cleavages—Camero (America Olivo), Trixie (Julia Voth) and Hel (Erin Cummings)—attempt to locate a fortune in diamonds, but are pursued by vicious villains working for the mysterious underworld figure known as Pinky.Judging by this film's opening credits, which features short clips of classic exploitation movies, writer/director Rick Jacobson is a big fan of the grind-house genre. What he isn't, however, is a particularly good film-maker, his approach being to throw all of the adolescent fantasies he has ever harboured into one messy script, assemble a great set of tits and ass, and hope for the best. Unfortunately, on this occasion, 'the best' just simply isn't good enough: unlike a director like Tarantino, who has made a successful career out of exploitation homages, Jacobson doesn't appear to have the necessary talent to back up his fanboyism.Admittedly, an hour and a half of watching big-breasted bimbos indulge in lesbian trysts, fire big guns, battle over-the-top bad-guys and partake in water-fights is never going to be a complete waste of time, but the result really should have been a whole lot more fun than this. The dreadful script is largely to blame, the cringe-worthy dialogue consisting of endless, supposedly amusing slang-terms for the vagina and assorted ridiculous one-liners. Similarly, the action is intentionally over-the-top, like a live-action cartoon, but it is rarely exciting, very predictable and rapidly becomes extremely tiresome.I rate Bitch Slap 4 out of 10, plus a very generous half point each for the Japanese killer in the school-girl outfit with the razor yo-yo and the well choreographed prolonged punch up between Camero and which involves lots of pain inflicted to the nether regions (listen out for the comedy cat miaow sound effect—my favourite moment in the whole film!).

If you waste your time watching this movie after reading the majority of the reviews, then you'll need to be Bitch Slapped for not paying attention. This is one of the the worst movies I have ever seen in my life. And I have seen a lot of movies. It's one of my most favorite things in the world to do. Take it from a real guy that likes real guy movies. This is a movie for lesbians and men with a vagina. IMDb guidelines state that ten lines of text are required to submit a post. Since I have nothing good to say about this movie at all the remaining tens lines will be this. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS MOVIE! I HAVE BEEN USING THE APP ON MY IPHONE IMDb FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW, BUT HAVE NEVER CREATED AN ACCOUNT. AFTER WATCHING THIS MOVIE AGAINST MY BETTER JUDGEMENT, I CREATED THIS ACCOUNT SIMPLY FOR THE PURPOSE OF SAVING SOMEONE ELSE FROM WHAT I JUST ENDURED. FOR GOD SAKES, SAVE YOURSELVES.

An entertaining film. I about gave up on it a time or two, but I hung in there and it redeemed itself. Better than any Russ Meyer film I have seen, and maybe even a notch above Tarantino. Much effort went into this film especially by the three female leads, well chosen for their role. There were the boobs and blood and all-out raucous catfights. If Tarantino style turns you off, you may not like it, but if not I suggest you watch this one and watch it to the end. The plot twists and ending are worth it. And a worthwhile and revealing view of women which one of the female trio expressed as "We are all just bitches in the end". I like that and late in the film a quote from a several hundred B.C. Chinese text which begins "All warfare is based on deception . . .", a thoughtful commentary giving a certain meaning to the film and raising it above the usual grindhouse fare for those paying attention to more than just the action.
