Hindi Jane And The Lost City

Hindi Jane And The Lost City

Jane and the Colonel must journey to Africa to the lost city to retrieve the diamonds before the Nazis do. Based on the classic adult UK comic strip 'Jane,' especially popular during WWII for its strong pin-up elements.
Jane and the Lost City is the story of a band of plucky but incompetent band of Allies in a race to fortune in diamonds with an equally incompetent band of Nazis. Along the way, both groups run into a series of mildly amusing adventures and situations, including title character Jane's ability to lose her clothing at the most inopportune moments. As I've never seen the comic strip Jane and the Lost City is based on, I probably don't have the proper context in which to place this movie. That's no necessarily a bad thing as I also have no preconceived biases. The entire thing is played for laughs. Unfortunately, the comedy sequences in Jane and the Lost City are too uneven for me to rate the film any higher. While some of the comedy worked (the tango scene is hysterical), some of it fell flat (most everything Nazi henchman Hans did wasn't funny in the slightest). The acting is also uneven and ranges from really good (Graham Stark as the butler Tombs) to dreadful (Kristen Hughes as Jane). Overall, I like the idea behind Jane and the Lost City, but more consistency in the writing and acting would have made this one much better.
Whoever made this nonsense completely missed the point. Jane is a silly comic strip to titillate without being sleazy.<br/><br/>This giant mess tries to be funny and exciting but is just a shambles. There is not one decent performance in it..even the usually reliable Jasper Carrott is painfully unfunny.<br/><br/>The American bloke whose name escapes me is just as rubbiush as he was in flash gordon.<br/><br/>Maud Adams tries as a villianess but she is a bit long in the tooth for this type of thing. All of these things would not matter if the girl was sexy or funny or likable.She is not. Kirsten Holmes faded into obscurity after this and so much the better.<br/><br/>I&#39;ve flushed more entertaining things than this down the toilet. Avoid
