classic

The film was shot in 1994, uh, looking at it now, it will inevitably have different feelings due to different times.
To be honest, if I had watched this movie back then, I would have worshipped this movie to death. However, the world is different now, and the pursuit of film quality is also different.

In terms of action, its scenes are first-class, and both visual and auditory give people a shocking feeling. It's the pinnacle of this kind of film.
The plot, from the very beginning, was fascinating. Unfortunately, the part about the wife's extramarital affair was very protracted and funny. Maybe the director wanted to show us the side of the spy's life. If you can't stand this part, you can just skip it.

    Cameron always brings advanced visual effects experience. Even today, those explosions, car chases, and aerobatics are still eye-catching. On the premise of ensuring such a strong visual perception, this film is first-class from the play, photography, soundtrack, and performance. It is really admirable that the genre film has achieved this level.

    From an action movie standpoint, the movie was a pinnacle, and when China started bringing in blockbusters around 1995, it was a box-office miracle, but oddly it didn't seem to be very popular in the United States.

True Lies quotes

  • Simon: [hitting on a woman at the party] Here, let me pour you some more champaigne. I gotta keep up the waiter bit, these stakeouts can be a little tricky you know, you never know if things can explode to a life or death situation, just stay low and I'll contact you later. Maybe you should give me your tele...

    Harry: [puts his hand in Simon] So, we meet again Carlos.

    Helen Tasker: [puts her lipstick case under Simon's chin] Honey, I'm gonna do him right here.

    Harry: [proudly] Go for it.

    Simon: Oh god.

    [pees in his pants]

    Helen Tasker: Fear is not an option.

    [Simon runs out of the party nervously screaming]

  • Helen Tasker: [confessing on why she wants to go with Simon to Paris] I wanted to do something outrageous, and it felt really good, to be needed, and to be trusted. It's just there's so much I want to do with this life and it feels that I haven't done any of it. You know, the sand is running out of the hourglass, and I want to look back and say, see, I did that, that was me, I was reckless and I was wild, and I fucking did it.
