    A tremendously entertaining and spectacular action extravaganza. It's a smart, fresh, furiously funny and teriffic film. Loaded with amasing action and gut-busting laughs. An unstoppable and unforgettable thrill-machine that you will love to watch again andd again. Thrilling, rel...( read more)entlessly exciting and truly exhilerating. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis are teriffic together, adding a spec of romance to this awsome adventure. Tom Arnold is a riot of great humor. A fantastic action-comedy. This is truly one of Arnold's best films.

    Great Bond type play here. The fantastic opening action sequence, harrier jet finale, horse chase sequence with toilet shoot out, gun battle in the baddie camp and Bill Paxton really hamming it up well hahaha its all here. The action looks awesome and it doesn't stop, not as viol...( read more)ent as Arnies regular gun fests but still impressive. Tia Carrere is hot as hell and even Tom Arnold can raise a smile.

    An action comedy, that should be described as an action film, with funny moments. Not that parts aren't hilarious, but this film is fairly serious. It's no poor parody such as Johnny English. Schwarzenegger also doesn't have to act hapless or comical to get the laughs. The premis...( read more)e is great, a secret agent puts the world at risk when he uses his methods and equipment to spy on his wife and investigate her affair. It's the perfect set-up for a look at the male ego and fear of emasculation. To top it off it's all wrapped up in a disguise of the exact genre that appeals to men. Not that the film lampoons either it's themes or genre. Everything is treated with the utmost respect. That's why True Lies is so successful. It has real people in a familiar unreal world. It's hardcore action, quick one-liners and always a little something more. How about this for a metaphor? Schwarzenegger literally juggles home life and his professional career as he tries to shake a terrorist off one wing of a fighter jet, and at the same time must save his daughter, hanging from the front. It's a film of real intelligence but is often to modest to admit it.
