This is for every JOHN BARRY LOVER December 22, 2003

WOW! I saw this picture about 40 years ago. The story is not worth to be written about, but watch for the music. The first John Barry film score, with UK pop singer Adam Faith and Shirley Anne Field.
The music is great with much nostalgy.
Buy this and close your eyes!
Hillarious! October 11, 1999

Superb camp value! My favorite scene: A 30-ish actress playing an 18 year old girl singing a song called "It's Legal." A must-have for any cheesy movie lover's collection!
CLASSIC PULP!!! September 19, 2003

Strippers, delinquints, and beatniks,(kind of).This movie really delivers.Gillian Hills is a frustrated teen-ager,who happens to look a lot like a young Bardot. Angry that the woman her father has married is an ex-stripper (and barely older than she is!).Gillian decides to try her hand at the age-old trade. But not before hanging out in a cave with her delinquent friends,incuding her rockabilly boyfriend(who happens to have a song for every occasion),playing chicken on some railroad tracks and dance repeatedly to John Berry's theme. Also look for Christopher Lee as an evil strip club owner.This British look at the beat generation may not be accurate, but it sure doesn't dissapoint! BEAT GIRL (a.k.a. Wild For Kicks) is a real treat for anyone who enjoys classic teen exploitation movies from the fifties and sixties.
BEAT GIRL BAD GIRL IS GOOD GIRL. January 4, 2007
Mary A. Enriquez (Walnut, Ca USA)
Tremendous fun. Tries to say that the Kids growing up in England after WWII all went off the rails but oh my how innocent it all was and it all works out that Mummy and Daddy know best!!!!!!!!! Noelle Adam plays a Frenchwoman who may have had a shady past before she marries the Rich Daddy of :BEAT GIRL: JENNIFER{A dead ringer for the 1950,s version of Brigitte Bardot} Jennifer hangs in the Beat clubs with her friends played by many of Englands VERY young and up and coming young stars. Sally Ann Field, Oliver Reed and Peter Mc Enery, Best known in the US for giving Haley Mills her first screen kiss in Disneys "THE MOONSPINNERS. Was Daddys new wife a stripper?And can I be one too. And just what does the Owner of the strip club { CHRISTOPHER LEE} have on his mind? He obviously likes biting necks even without fangs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not Bad But Uncut Version Now Unavailable September 24, 2007

BEAT GIRL is a surprisingly good (good as in sleazy, corny and entertaining) JD film from England. John "James Bond" Barry did the music and a young Oliver "Curse of the Werewolf" Reed makes a fool of himself along with Brit pop star Adam Faith. But the two stars of the show are Christopher "Count Dracula" Lee as an ultra-sleazy strip club owner and that force of nature Gillian Hills as Jenny, the restless rich teen with attitude problems. Lee is good as usual in what could have been a total waste of a role, but Hills is SMOKING beyond belief. Like other reviewers have stated, I can't see HOW this girl never became a star. You can't take your eyes off her when she is in the frame. Sadly, all current versions available of the film are edited except for the Kino Video VHS tape which is now out of print (but still available used here on Amazon). There was supposed to be a DVD from Kino but it seems it was canceled. *sigh* Worth a look either way.
