Males play support for the females in this film - unusual then - and unusual now.
It was also shot on a very low budget yet looks as good as anything the big studios made at the time.
There's some ridiculous parts to it as well like the warden and the guards - being totally over the top - but it's essentially a requirement to keep the focus on the women being the heroes and most intellectually appealing of the film.
Oh and it's a smorgasbord of the female form as well.
EDIT: It's a comedy as well - so plenty of laughs.
