      The muscles are really strong!

      One of the representative works of California Governor Schwarzenegger when he was young. At his peak, Arnold is the absolute number one muscular man action star in Hollywood. The film shows Arnold's amazing muscles all the time. Of course, in reality, what you see may not be useful, ha ha. But at least in the movie, he is invincible. The main line of the film's plot is that the hero dad saves his daughter and only picks the terrorist lair. It is similar to Schwarzenegger's follow-up classic...

      Devil commander

      2020-1-31

      The killer pretends to be a cleaner, drove a garbage truck to collect the garbage, shot and killed a person who went to a Cadillac store and drove to death. The sales detonated the cruise ship and the explosive exploded to death. The captain told Arnold that his teammates were killed. The captain sent two soldiers at Arnold’s house. Arnold lived in a mountain hut. The captain left the killer and killed the soldiers. One of the killers arrested was Arnold’s men. Because Arnold...

      Simplicity is king

      Watching previous action movies, it was quite simple.
      Movies with this subject matter are just one word, hitting. Two words, violence.
      The plot is also very simple, creating contradictions, intersecting characters, and detonating. With all kinds of scenes, all kinds of weapons, all kinds of explosions.
      The audience’s brains are relatively simple to watch, just stimulating the adrenal glands directly.
      I still miss the previous action movies, and the director is relatively...

      Devil is angry

      2021.10.02

      A big muscular man who is 6 feet 2 inches tall with a fierce face and murderous face said that his daughter was held hostage and asked you to help him. What would you do? I would definitely choose the opportunity to report to the police, and at least get away if I had...

      This film is underrated

      This movie deserves a few more words.

      When I went to IMDB a few years ago, Schwarzenegger’s fans initiated a poll asking which Arnold’s favorite works are. As a Chinese movie fan, of course I would choose such masterpieces as "T2" and "True Lies", but there are many foreigners who choose this "Commando" as the first place. In our opinion, "Commando" is so exaggerated and unrealistic, but in the eyes of foreigners, the film is a monumental existence in the field of action movies....

    Piercing lens

    Continuity: When Mechuk walked into the shopping center, the sky was still bright; when he walked out a few minutes later, it was dark.
    Continuity: When the yellow Porsche collided with the red car, one side of the car body was damaged, but when Mechuk jumped into the car and started it suddenly, the damaged side was intact.
    Prop error: When Mechuk was climbing the cliff on the island, it could be seen that the shotgun on his back was...

    Evaluation action

    The film is a typical popcorn movie, it is pleasing enough, although it won't endure in the end. Schwarzenegger tried to inject some new elements about his personality into the role of this film, but he also ended his Schwarzenegger-style personality creation on the screen, including his witty words and very special from time to time. Cool cold humor. Perhaps the most memorable thing about this movie lies in his behavior before he...

    Movie quotes

    • Bennett: I really love listening to your little piss-ant soldiers trying to talk tough. They make me laugh. If Matrix was here, he'd laugh too.

    • Arius: Mr. Bennett, my soldiers are patriots.

      Bennett: Your soldiers are nothing. Matrix and I can kill every single one of them...

      [snaps his fingers]

      Bennett: in the blink of an eye. Remember that.

      Arius: Are you trying to... frighten me?

      Bennett: I don't have to try. When Matrix finishes the job, he'll be back for his daughter. Now whether she's alive or dead doesn't matter. Then he'll be after you. Now the only thing between you and Matrix...

      [points to himself]

      Bennett: is me.

      Arius: It is YOU that is afraid, Mr. Bennett. YOU are afraid of Matrix.

      Bennett: Of course. I'm smart.

    • Bennett: Of course. I'm smart. But I have an edge; I have his daughter.
