Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 1995 film based on the notorious comic book series Tank Girl, starring Lori Petty as Tank Girl, Malcolm McDowell as Kesslee, Naomi Watts as Jet Girl and... rapper Ice-T as a human/kangaroo mutant hybrid.In an apocalyptical future, a comet strikes Earth, drying up the world's oceans and making water the most valuable substance in the world, controlled by a single ruthless corporation, Water and Power, which charges exorbitant prices for the necessary resource. Becca and her group of friends live off the grid by controlling the last unowned water source, leading to a raid by Water and Power that ends with Becca forced into corporate slavery, while her child companion Sam is abducted and sent to a brothel. Becca's wise mouth and defiance makes her a target of the Water and Power's CEO Kesslee, who is determined to break her. He almost succeeds, except for the interference of Jet, a meek W&P mechanic who befriends Becca.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Becca makes an escape, taking along with her both Jet and a Water and Power tank that she tricks out to an anti-corporate battle machine. From there, the story becomes a wacky tale of a girl and her semi-sentient tank, as Becca, Jet, and the mutant resistance force known as the Rippers square off against Water and Power to save Sam...and maybe the rest of the world, too. | |

Abnormal Ammo: At one point Tank Girl's tank runs out of shells, so she solves the issue by loading beer cans in the main cannon. | |

Adrenaline Makeover: Jet Girl is meek and mousy, and lets the Water and Power mook push her around until she makes friends with Tank Girl. By the end of the movie, Jet has quit stuttering, is telling off people on the radio, cows the Reavers when they cross her, and even kills the mook who sexually harassed her. | |
