There’s a moment in the misbegotten, long-delayed comic book adaptation Brenda Starr where you can, for a few precious seconds, see all the promise of its mischievous cartoon glee—and it’s almost a throwaway shot. Go to Full Review

Anakin G Dec 10, 2018 Brenda Starr is a disappointing film. It is about a journalist who goes into the depths of a South American jungle as she researches a story. Brook Shields and Timothy Dalton give horrible performances. The screenplay is badly written. Robert Ellis Miller did a terrible job directing this movie. I was not impressed with this motion picture. See more
