这个很赞!!!!!!
Once again, Arnie and Cameron team up to deliver a terrific action film。
Arnie stars as a secret agent posing as a computer salesman。
Not even his wife knows his true identity and since he is always busy she decides to have a little excitement and hooks up with a nitwit posing as a secret agent! In the mean while, in trying to get her back, Arnie gets his family inadvertently pushed into a plot, by terrorists to nuke the USA! Preposterous? Yes! Hilarious? YES!!!
The resulting film has Arnie chasing motorcycles on horseback through hotels all the way to "borrowing" Harrier jets from the military。
And, of course, getting his wife and daughter back。
Packed with awesome action scenes and some really terrific hilarious moments this is what an action movie should be。
Not too serious and not too pointless。 8/10
This is how an action movie should be like!
Biggest problem with most action movies is that they take themselves way too serious。
"True Lies" is mainly fun and entertaining and on top of that, the action is top class!
Finally a movie of which I can say: "Budget well spend!" The action really jumps off the screen but it never feels overdone or forced, which is thanks to action-director veteran James Cameron。
He should stick to directing action movies like this, the Terminator movies and "Aliens"。 Please no more movies like "Titanic"! (not that it was a VERY bad movie) Stick to were your talent lies。
The movie can be described as an American James Bond, meaning that everything is bigger and I'm not just talking about Arnie's chest。
Just like the James Bond movies, it doesn't take itself seriously without making itself ridiculous。
Many people seem to have problems with the whole "wife side track, story-line" I guess I'm one of the few that doesn't mind it at all and actually find it an extra addition to the story。
The movie has everything a good action movie need: A believable action hero, explosions, chases, gun fights, a stereotype villain and a high entertainment value。
I wish more action movies like this would be made。
10/10
A vivid reminder of just how exciting an action film can be。
*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
Arnold Schwarzenegger (Harry Tasker) is a super spy character who works for (eye-patched Charlton Heston) Omega Force, and tracks down international terrorists。
His marvelous wife Helen (Jamie Lee Curtis) nor their teenage daughter Dana (Eliza Dushku) know anything about it。
。。 Helen thinks he's rather a dull computer salesman。。。
Things go rough when Harrie begins to suspect that his wife, a very conservative secretary, maybe is having an affair with a man pretending to be a spy。
。。 So he immediately brings all the resources of his department to find out what is really going on。。。 In addition, Harry was focusing on a Middle Eastern terrorist group called the Crimson Jihad who terrorizes the United States with nuclear weapons。
In my mind, and I'll bet the rest of you will feel the same as well, Schwarzenegger has enough physical bravado for the job。
。。 Best example: his scene holding Helen from the moving helicopter。。。 He does a credible 007—like character, especially out, in and around an ultra exclusive Swiss château。
。。 His hot tango, with Asian beauty Tia Carrere, establishes Harry's grace and charm。。。
Jamie Lee Curtis shows she is indeed a sweet delight in the way she moves。
。。 This attractive star still has a great figure。。。 Her arousing striptease is hilarious and sexy。。。
Tom Arnold (Albert Gibson) does all of the background work in the van, while his partner Harry saves the world, in killing bad guys。
Tia Carrere brings a sensuous style as the wild, hot-blooded psycho-seductress, driven by powerful ambitions。
Bill Paxton becomes funnier as we get to know him。。。 He feels lucky as Helen's enigmatic suitor, convincing the naive woman, through a series of "chance" encounters, that he is an international spy。
Art Malik makes an appropriately super-villain especially considering what he is supposed to be portraying: the face of terrorism, with fanatical actions shaped by a fundamental antagonism against United States。
。。 You'll explode with laughter watching what occurs when our super hero tells him, "You're fired。"
With 'True Lies,' a vivid reminder of just how exciting an action film can be, director James Cameron gives us a film that plays for laughs enough that it works。
。。 Watch Schwarzenegger on top of the skyscraper wanting a horse he is riding to jump to another building。。。 The $100 million in special effects are very impressive。
。。 The best example: Harrier fighters blowing out a bridge; and a standout scene that has to been seen to be believed:the rescue of Arnold's daughter with a Harrier Jetfighter。
Six months have elapsed since (September 11th, 2001) that terrible day of infamy tore at America's soul。
。。 On Sunday, October 7, 2001, the United States and Britain began air strikes against Al Qaeda and Taliban targets in Afghanistan。
I think each nation must struggle against violence and for peace。。。 We will never eradicate terrorism altogether, but we can certainly minimize its destructive impact。
。。 This is not a fight against a specific religion or a culture of people。。。 This is a fight for the right to live in democracy, freely and in peace。
。。 This is a fight to the end that the whole world must win。
