To me, this movie is perfection.
... View MoreAs somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
... View MoreIt is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
... View MoreIt's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
... View MoreThis is the third Arnie movie I didn't like, bu that's ok, he has some good and bad, the story is long and dull but the acting is good. I just didn't like this film.I give True Lies a 3/10
... View MoreTrue Lies, clearly 1994 was such an epic time for film making.What made this movie great? Well Arnold and Tom. Among others, yes.Great pair and thinking back, highly interesting film.My next idea or thought would be. Since it was clearly, a success. Why not a sequel? Answer? Just didn't think about a sequel. Too good a' film to ruin with a possible sequel. This movie still today blows all minds.Possibly True Lies II, like Last Action Hero-like epic film.Arnold & Tom certainly would be our honor to witness this pair & this sequel once again. The best part about this movie is however it turns out on paper and on-screen it will certainly succeed as a blockbuster.More high-speed driving with Arnold & Tom behind the wheel. Not to mention that Harrier scene was intense. Maybe a bit of Super- Secret-Agent scuba diving for lost at sea Top secret weapon. From which is to be investigated and found by Arnold & Tom. As they proceed to search for this weapon, they just so happen to run across others who happen to be searching as well. At which point Secret Agent, Arnold discontinues the search and rescue weapon. Then proceeds to see what this other entity wishes to do with such a weapon. Where they find they plan to use the weapon not for it's power of destruction but to utilization it's technology to build a highly scientific research development project. Where it's special and specific technologies can be used to build some sort of space device. This "other" entity is not of a specific country per-say but rather it's own operation and entity for exploration.However Arnold & Tom had to succeed on their mission to return the device for safety sake, as their was a flaw they later found that would cause great destruction if not handled correctly. The story can be filled in from there but it would be, not your typical plot and very unpredictable as this other entity isn't "bad" in nature. Just taking it upon themselves to research beyond government allowance. From a research/ scientific approach rather than for a "bad" reason.Everything else can be filled in but it would be amazing to see another performance of this pair.*** --==True Lies II ==--** (December 2018?) haha ;)
... View MoreThis is the Arnie movie you haven't watched, haven't heard of and should watch if you have any appreciation for 90's action flicks. They're often easy and fun to watch, well constructed, possibly have a bit of a worthwhile morality to it and contains lots of improbable, humorous moments. Well, this James Cameron forgotten flick does all of that, and does it very well. You'll forget it runs at over 2hrs20min because it never lets down and the plot continues to maintain a solid level, evolving and throwing new elements in smoothly as it goes. Of course Arnie is Arnie as ever, and Jamie Lee Curtis puts in a superb, surprisingly complex performance as her character is put through all sorts of awkward positions and situations. Good action scenes, and lots ! - genuinely good laughs, some good criticism about more identifiable issues (within couples, for instance), and a great climax at the end. Watch it, it's that enjoyable. Really a fun, worthwhile Cameron/Arnie flick.
... View MoreTrue Lies is amazing great characters played by great actors, awesome effects, cool action scenes and overall a classic Schwarzenegger movie with some cool one liners also like 'Give me the goddamn page'. And probably the most memorable striptease scene ever by Jamie Lee Curtis. The bad guy is good he is not as great as Bennett, the Predator or The T-1000 but he is still a good funny villain the film is basically an action comedy movie and the 2nd underrated most underrated Cameron film after The Abyss. This film needs a higher rating here in IMDb and on Rotten Tomatoes maybe a 8.1 or a 8.3 and a 84% or an 88% on RT. If you are a Jim Cameron fan and an Arnold Schwarzenegger fan you gonna love this movie.
