Summary: Smash From STart to finish! "HE's DEAD TIRED!"
Review: For all of you who think that there isn't a great action movie from the eighties. I bring you the best. Commando is a non stop action fest that breaks necks from start to finish. Headed by vetaran oscar caliber perfomances by Bill Duke and Dan Hedaya, this movie showcases the madness a man can endure when his most precious gift, his daughter has been kidnapped. Would you honestly want this guy after you ! I sure as heck wouldn't. Arnie is throughly ripped and rips apart guys he does. The most climatic scene in the flick is when Arnie pushes his 82' Ford Bronco (I think OJ borrowed this one!)off a cliff and hops in when it has no brakes and isn't even on ! The bronco chase is amazing and puts the car chases of Ronin and JADE to shame ! Absolutely a textbook case of how action movies should be made ! The part where Arnie jumps out of a flying airplane is amazing for it's time! There are also classic lines in this flick, some said by not even Arnie! I'll do my best to fit in a few: Bill DUKe: "You know what i love best about cars ? " Salesman : WHAT ? DUKE: "THE PRICe.."

Another classic is the hilarious Car Salesman: "G'head! Start her UP!" ARnie after breaking a man's neck on the plane: "Please could you not disturb my friend ? He's dead TIRED." And i will conclude the lines with his classic. After impaling his enemy with a pipe: "Blow off some steam Benett."

To wrap things up, I will say that this is the greatest action movie ever made, Arnie is the greatest action hero ever. And the story is so taught and gripping, the violence is only secondary to this amazing story line! This movie is WAY SMART, not for dummies ! To yourself a favor and rent this one immediately ! Just ask for Arnie's greatest movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An absolute delight from start to finish
Review: Easily one the worst "big films" of the 1980s, this Ah-nuld bloodbath still manages to satisfy. As a companion to "Death Wish 3," this film provides all the essentials of Joel Silver cinema: high body counts, laughable death scenes, moronic, half-naked women, continuity errors galore, ridiculous stunts, and enough machismo to suffocate even the strongest of Iron Johns. While the one-liners are all groaners and the "bad guys" one-dimensional knuckleheads, "Commando" is a hoot-fest of Reaganesque proportions.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I'll be back, Bennett.
Review: Just how many times did they use that same clip of Arnie side swiping that yellow porsche? And yes, you can see the cable on the guy's leg when Arnold is holding him over the edge of that cliff but, even though, it still rates 4 stars. You can't beat Ahhhnold for action.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Arnie is superb!
Review: What is it with Schwarzenegger films? I enjoy them so much, because he has charisma, he's watchable and comical and the only film that I did'nt like of his was BATMAN & ROBIN (although he was still good in it). This film is very high on action and it was one of his early films, after THE TERMINATOR. If you like action or Arnie and you haven't seen this then you should really try to.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome action!
Review: This movie has a silly plot that doesn't make much sense or hold together well, and logic problems all over the place. But you never notice them when watching this incredible movie. It is just plain good fun! Buy it now!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Arnie is awesome!
Review: Non-stop excitement! This is a must have for any true fan of Arnold. Alot of classic Arnie humor thrown in for a fun ride!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Awful but good
Review: Whenever I watch "Commando" I think of the "McBain" running gag character in "The Simpsons."

This film is blessed with one of the most idiotic plots in the history of motion pictures, some of the worst dialog ever uttered by human beings and acting so unrelievedly bad that that Woody Harrelson would look good by comparison.

All that aside, I've seen "Commando" about eight times now, and like it immensely. It is the perfect film for when you want something exciting to watch that wouldn't tax the intelligence of a carpet slug and which will make the most damaged intellect smile and then laugh out loud.

Don't believe anyone who says that this film is anything but a comedy but watch it again and again and again. Definitely one to own.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: #1 Action Thriller Of All Time!!!! Arnold at his BEST!
Review: One Word Describes This Movie: SPECTACULAR.

Nothing can stop Matrix (Arnold) when his daughter is kidnapped. Although given an ultimatum between killing a dictator or losing his daughter, Matrix takes matters into his own hands. Using his raw strength, military skills, and strength of an army, Matrix not only gets his daughter back, but kills those ppl who pissed him off. Watch it. Buy it. Then watch it again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The definition for one man army.
Review: This movie is action packed. Schwarzenegger is the epitamy of action hero in this cinema. It's plot maybe simple but that is just fine. John Matrix (Schwarzeneggers) is a retired special forces agent that "eats Green Berets for breakfast". From his wilderness retreat goons kidnap his young daughter (TV's Alyssa Milano). It's up to Matrix and a female hostage (Rae Dawn Chong) to rescue her and put as many enemy soldiers to an early grave as possible. Great Film! If you need a one man army Schwarzenegger is your man. Almost forgot to mention how much better it is on DVD. Bunch of extras.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of Arnold's all time best movies.
Review: This movie is an action packed, edge of your seat thriller. With over 200 kills, Arnold (Matrix) is one mean dude!. His abilities in this movie are astounding. He smells his enemy coming and can hear with the ears of a super dog. I also love the way he goes shopping, takes and goes as he pleases.His body was and is always in monsterous condition. Overall it is one of his greatest hits ever!
