History YMMV / Sheena

* BestKnownForTheFanservice: Not only Creator/TanyaRoberts wears skimpy outfits throughout, but she has an uncensored bathing scene... in a PG movie, no less!

** The entire sequence where flamingos attack the helicopter. Watching Zanda and the pilot halfheartedly attempting to fend off the ravaging avians and the business of the pilot getting his eyes pecked out come across as more than a little silly.

* ClicheStorm: The film combines not just the whole list of JungleOpera cliches (befitting a character originating from pulp stories), but also throws in the early 80s adventure flick formula to the mix. And it actually ''works'' with [[WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief the right mindset]].

* {{Narm}}: Loads:
** Betsy yelling out her daughter's name, precipitating the cave-in. "'''''JANET!!!'''''"
** Otwani's efforts to act horrified when his brother is killed ''by the trap he set up''. "'''''My God!'''''"

*** All of the scenes with Sheena's animal friends are ridiculous in their own right.
** The entire sequence where flamingos attack the helicopter. Watching Zanda and the pilot halfheartedly attempting to fend off the ravaging lawn ornaments and the business of the pilot getting his eyes pecked out come across as more than a little silly.
** Soldier Anders ''catches'' one of the great big boulders the tribe are rolling down on the bad guys, ''holds it to himself,'' and then propels himself backwards to simulate being struck.

* SoOkayItsAverage: Really, this is the kindest thing that can be said about the movie as a whole.
** SoBadItsGood: Unless it's this.

* CompleteMonster: TheEvilPrince Otwani schemes to take the throne of Tigora and mine the rich Earth of the Gudjara Mountain, assassinating his good-hearted brother and [[HeKnowsTooMuch poisoning his own associates]] to assure his arise to power. Meeting complications from the resisting native Zambuli tribes, Otwani attempts to exterminate them all, leading his forces towards Gudjara Mountain and even allowing his bloodthirsty soldiers to completely wipe out a nearby village to slake their bloodlust. Otwani only spares the jungle warrior Sheena for his own lascivious purposes and attempts to have her partner murdered for the transgression of slapping him.

* {{TearJerker}}: The death of the Shaman.

* SpecialEffectsFailure:

* TearJerker: The death of the Shaman.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: The main theme aside, Richard Hartley's score for the film is quite powerful.

** Anders ''catches'' one of the great big boulders the tribe are rolling down on them, ''holds it to himself,'' and then propels himself backwards to simulate being struck.

* SpecialEffectsFailure: Sheena's "zebra" is clearly a horse with stripes painted on.

** Otwani's efforts to act horrified when his brother is killed ''by the trap he set up''. "'''''My God!'''''" ... "We leave her to the hangman." Etc.

** Otwani's efforts to act horrified when his brother is killed ''by the trap he set up''. "'''''My God!'''''"

* {{Narm}}: During the final battle, actor Dave Cooper (Anders) ''catches'' one of the great big boulders the tribe are rolling down on them, ''holds it to himself,'' and then propels himself backwards to simulate being struck.
