Summary: A satisfying actioner.
Review: Arnold plays loving father, ex-commando, John Matrix who's in hiding with his daughter. After an evil army kidnaps his daughter, Arnold goes balistic and has 11 hours to find her- before they kill her. Scary Reality: The movie was only written for an hour and seven minutes total. Happy ending: Steven De. Souza added twenty five minutes of non-stop action in the end, making it 92 minutes long. What Works: Arnold's cool stunts, one-liners, and the action. What Doesn't: Arnie's nemesis, Bennett, whom is unbelievable, and the lower level of action before the last half hour. And even at 90 minutes long, it still isn't long enough. COMMANDO (1985) Rated: R (Strong Violence, Profanity, Brief Gore, and Brief Sex/Nudity) COMMANDO is a fun action flick to add to the ARNOLD collection. 4 stars out of 5.

Summary: "Let off some steam Bennett"
Review: From start to finish this is Arnie at his best. He is so good that at times it almost brings you to tears. The one liners make this one of Arnie's finest masterpieces, from "He's dead tired", to "LET OFF SOME STEAM BENNETT". If it's action you want this film never dissapoints. Murders, beatings, mameings, shootings and general deaths make this one to watch. The only word to describe this film is 'outstanding'. It has 10 out of 10 comical value, take it with a pinch of salt, sit back and appreciate Arnie at his very best.

Summary: Best Film Of The 80's
Review: After seeing Commando again for the first time in 15 years, it was as fresh as ever. The actors, including Arnie in one of his early starring roles, delivered a performance with conviction without going over the top. Bennet must rate as one of the best baddies in modern cinema - tall, muscular, handle-bar 'tache. How he has not gone on to better things continues to puzzle me. As with most of Arnie's films, the plot is relatively thin but this can is overlooked once you submerse yourself in the the non-stop, gung-ho action. Blood, guts, gore, Bennet - why can't more films be like this. They sure don't make 'em like this no more.

Summary: Bennett Rocks !!
Review: WOW! What a movie. Arnie's performance is vintage (and in my opinion even better than in Conan) but he is completely outclassed by Vernon as Bennett, easily the scariest cinematic bad guy since Darth Vadar. From the moment Arnie is covered in ice cream by his pesky little daughter I knew it was going to be a special movie and now that its on DVD, even better. Why Vernon hasn't went on to the same kind of heights as Arnie I'll never know. There aint no justice in this world. Thanks for listening :)

Summary: A Masterpiece! one of the best films of hte 80's
Review: I like that many have given rave reviews for this film. it deserves them all. This movie is the best 80's action after only Predator and Die Hard and Aliens and thats saying a lot. This is even better then the Original Terminator. This movie is what action should be. This is Arnolds best movie after T2, Predator and True Lies. He looked great in this one. Basically his daughter gets kidnapped so he has to get her back. Thats all you need to know. The movie is just Ah-nuld f--king people up. SNapping necks. Shooting 50 bad guys without on scratch. It gets pretty outrageous at times but dont expect any realism and you will have fun as the movie delivers booket loads of action and death. And lots and lots of Lousy one liners that are hilarious every time you hear them. ALl in all a classic film. Not to be missed by fans of hardcore action.

Summary: the worst action movie
Review: Commando is the worst action movie ever made.It brings shame to all of arnie's movies,The Terminator,T2 Judgement Day,and The Predator.The plot is moronic.Sure the movie has lots of action but it comes at a cost.There is no thought put into the plot. All it is,is running and gunning throughout the whole movie. Caveman Say:Uga bugga bugga ugga! Translation:All action and no plot make bad movie.

Summary: Great Action Flick,But Dated!!!!
Review: This by far is a very good action film and does show off the talents of Arnold. This movie is however very dated. Most of all the clothes,music,and slang is from the mid-80's. The film may not be for you if you are looking for a serious timeless action film. If you are looking for good entertainment and alot of laughs,this movie is for you. Yes,I find myself laughing thoughout the entire movie. This is not a bad thing!! That is because of 80's clothes,music,slang and of course 80's screenwriting. Back then,action movies were more blood and guts and less sense and plot. The film I feel has a very defined plot,though it may be a little simple. Arnold has to save his daughter from a group of bad guys. The plot may be chessy now,but in the 80's this was new and exciting. Many reviewers are rating this movie on standards of today,not the 80's. In the 80's Commando received very few negative reviews,even some critics like it (which many seem hard to believe). Bottom line-Get this film,but remember you are watching a film from a different time and don't be quick to judge. Take it all in,then make your own conclusions. Watch it for the first time alone,to make your own judgement. Then later it may be fun to watch it with a family member and get their reaction. Commando is something worth checking out,both then and now.
