Movie Reviews of Commando

Movie Review: A Hero? NO! A Commando!
Summary: 5 Stars

Oh, testify! Arnold Schwarzenegger is the ultimate deity in this epic motion picture which has the star fight a militia of wannabe commandos and a fake Spanish mayor! After turning down an assassination plan, strange army dudes take John Matrix's daughter (Alyssa Milano), until he kills the man they want dead. Tension! Matrix says 'no' and goes rampant on all of the bad men. He chops a guy on an airplane, jumps off the airplane while it's taking off, fights rent-a-cops at a mall, rips out a telephone booth from a wall, lifts cars, meets Rae Dawn Chong and destroys a whole compound in an exotic location. I was truly blown away with this motion picture and Arnold's performance. Don't mess with that homey, he's got your numba! He also eats Green Berets for breakfast!

Movie Review: Think Alyssa Milano is hot in Charmed?
Summary: 5 Stars

Then check this out. This is like Whos the Boss only instead of Toni there is Arnold. And instead of Angela there is a creepy dude with a handle bar mustache who sports.....guess what?!.....CHAIN MAIL!!! OH YEAH!!! CHAIN MAIL!!!! Just like Fender in the movie Cyborg! Classic 80's cheese. Chain mail won't stop a bullet. Anyhoo, Alyssa gets kidnapped by Arnolds enemys cause he's some kinda ex-special op and Arnold tracks them down...meets some hot chick(well, they're normally hot)....gets a bunch guns....has a finally confrontation....kills both bosses....saves daughter....gets girl. It almost feels like you're watching a movie that was created by a 80s action movie plot generator. It really is a hilarious movie, I suggest you see it.

Movie Review: Extreme Action!
Summary: 5 Stars

In this movie Arnold Schwarzenegger plays as Johnny Matrix. He is a one man army. A group kidnaps his daughter(extremely stupid decision) and then he is ordered to kill the president of Val Verdes(I think I spelled it right). Arnold agrees, but manages to escape without getting caught. Now he is on a mission to rescue his daughter. While the plot may seem basic and some of the odds unbelievable, it is extremely fun to watch and it never lets up. The action may slow down for 10 minutes total throughout the movie and that is spreaded out time. The DVD doesn't really have any special features, except widescreen and the usual DVD options. Giving this movie a rent atleast is definatley worth it. Buying it is even more worth it!

Movie Review: Great action flick!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Commando is essential for all Arnold Schwarzenegger movie buffs! Arnold stars as Matrix, a retired member of a special ops commando unit. Freddy Mercury took a sabbatical from Queen to star as Bennett, a villain who kidnaps Matrix's daughter Jenny(played by Alyssa Milano).

In addition to superb action sequences, there are so many funny 1-liners! For example, after Arnold throws a steam pipe through Bennett, he says "Let off some steam, Bennett." Also, right before dropping Sully, another bad guy, off a cliff, the following banter occurred:

Matrix: "Remember, Sully, when I promised to kill you last?"
Sully: "That's right, Matrix. You did!"
Matrix: "I lied."

I highly recommend Commando! It's a barrel of fun!


Movie Review: My favorite Schwarzenegger
Summary: 5 Stars

The storyline of this movie is so cheesy, that you'll have to laugh again and again. Arnold has 11 hours to find his kidnapped daughter and free her from the bad guys. And while doing this he shows his fans all they want to see him doing: Being a one-man-army with major firepower. Especially the scenes in the mall are unforgetable: When he lifts up the phone booth with the bad guy in it and throws it away. And then his one-liners: "Let's take Cook's car, he doesn't need it anymore" or "please leave my friend alone, he is dead tired." And so on. For anybody who likes Arnold an the eighties it's the perfect movie!
I wish Arnold would do more movies like this today!
