Watched this film in a theater. 30 years ago...times fly😄. Bill Paxton was the lucky charm actor for Cameron in that period. Terminator, Aliens, Titanic. He was Amazing. Also Cameron ask Arnold to share with Jamie to be the Star of this one. This is an Arnold and Jamie movie. I've learned this not so long ago. ❤ One more thing, i'm from Argentina, Tango is our music and dance. The song is "Por Una Cabeza", Astor Piazzolla. You two, i wish you have a very nice day!
4:55..People say no way on that trick..But the dogs weighed about 100 lbs each, while Arnie could bench press 500, so it's doable. 8:16..Doggone if Heston dosen't look like Marvel's Nick Fury ( The original, not Samual Jackson's one) in that scene.11:37..Pool old dude'll never use another public restroom again! 18:55. I liked the guy, too..From " Aliens and " Titanic " to " 2 guns" ( 2013), he could play the scummiest guys with funny realism-- RIP.39:42-Good point --death by Pelican is too nice for evil folk like that. Great movie, funny and action-packed..enjoyed the reactions ladies!
Can we please appreciate what a total champ Bill Paxton was...playing that particular role this good.....no matter how he came across..what a great professional actor, an that only for a bit that was on screen for less than 10 mins..man I miss him
"You're fired!" Basically Jim Cameron's attempt at a 007 film. It's super quotable, with such a great script. Also, the chemistry between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jaime Lee Curtis is fantastic in this movie. It really helps to bring their characters to life.
"Have you ever killed anyone?" "Yeah, but they were all bad." Fun Fact: The USMC supplied three Harriers and their pilots for a fee of $100,736 ($2,410 per hour). Art Imitates Life Fact: At one point in the movie, Gib tells a story about his second wife taking everything when she left him, even the ice cube trays from the freezer. This is a direct reference to Tom Arnold's divorce from Roseanne Barr that was happening at the same time. Barr was reported to have taken his ice cube trays when she left him as well. Arnold told the story to James Cameron on the set and Cameron incorporated it into the film. That's Hot Fact: The set of bra and matching panties worn by Helen Tasker during the striptease scene were Jamie Lee Curtis's own. Curtis rehearsed the scene extensively with director James Cameron, and it was there that the fall she makes in the middle of the dance was conceived (it didn't happen spontaneously during the actual shooting, as is often claimed). Arnold Schwarzenegger was not told of this beforehand, and this is hinted at when Harry briefly sits up in alarm, realizes that he is breaking character, and then relaxes.
@@rray848 - Mine too... Gil trying to suck in his gut to take cover behind the skinny post (and somehow succeeding) was hilarious. Also the following exchange with the director: "They call him the sand spider" "Why?" "Probably because it sounds scary"
Jamie Lee's Dance sequence proves you don't have to be naked to be sexy. She actually did slip and fall but recovered so well that James Cameron left it in the movie.
Absolutely love how easily Bill Paxton disappears in these weasel roles lol, Predator 2, Aliens and True Lies he just falls right into that role with ease. "if they took care of business, Id be out of business" 🤣
I have a very strong attachment to this movie, because James Cameron told me I was the inspiration for Arnold's character. He didn't specify which Arnold.
Awesome reaction ladies! Yes. Tom Arnold is the best sidekick ever! Arnold absolutely has range. Another of hits that he doesn't get credit for is Kindergarten Cop. Tia Carreras hair big and full...what a great compliment coming from 2 ladies who's hair is always on point. ❤
Awesome movie, so much fun, and Bill Paxton, what can one say. I first saw him in Weird Science and so many other movies as well. Aliens 2 would not have been the movie it was without him, not to mention Titanic. Yep, we got robbed by his untimely death. Miss ya Bill and thank you for a job well done.
Rumor has it that when Tom Arnold was telling the story about getting divorced, and his ex took the ice from the ice trays... that really happened to him when he separated from Roseanne Barr.
I love this movie! Its hilarious. A great cast. "Care to tango?" " Yes i would" "A@#holes"😅 "She took everything, i mean everything, she even took the ice cube trays out of the freezer. What kind of a sick b@tch takes the icecube trays out of the freezer!?!"
I remember showing up to the shooting location in New Port Rhode Island to try for an extra part. That was a nice thing the Director did for the locals. New Port Mansions were used as the Switzerland scenes. The Breakers, Marble House, The Elms, Rosecliff, Chepstow and Chateau-sur-Mer. Look them up or Visit sometime.
The USMC used the "Advanced Harrier" which is a slightly modified British Harrier commonly called the "Jump Jet" owing to the fact it can take off and hover like a helicopter
It always made me laugh how Jamie Lee Curtis character just happens to be married to a guy who has the physique of a 7 time Mr Olympia. Fun Fact : when Jamie gets lifted out of the limousine, it was on her birthday and she wanted to do the stunt herself.
Michelle and Natalie. Thanks for the great flashback 30 blooming years and like many movies of these times and earlier, showing up with class and style and great humour! The professional actors and actresses and I say professional because not one of them disappointed me. They caused me to smile and laugh plus it looks natural with a flow and that's good. The writing and dialogue, tongue in cheek seriousness? Action explosions and gun fire plus violence still with comedy plus there's a Bloody Love Story in it as well! Even The Great Charlton Heston pop's in for a few minutes. Just a Brilliant Entertaining Good Feel Movie. Michelle and Natalie. I enjoyed watching this and seeing you. Cheer's Gorgeous Ladies.xx
You missed the post credits scene tho??? Lol . One of the earlier ones . It's nothing major.. just Tom Arnold's character comes back briefly and says "being in the van sucks". Always made me chuckle
Dan Aykroyd is married to Donna Dixon. They met on the film "Doctor Detroit". They also were in the film "Spies Like Us". They have been married since 1983. He has not, nor was he ever married to Tia Carrere.
Stuntwoman who did the gag hanging from the helicopter was in Playboy Stuntwomen edition when this came out. And yes JLC body is crazy in this. Lot of people thought it may have been a body double at first.
LOL! Fun one, Ladies! I love that Dana stole the key, and Arnold on truth serum was a hoot. 😅 Jamie & Arnold were really, really good together, weren't they? Thank you for sharing this one. It was fun to rewatch it with you! 🙂 Oh, and you are both Gorgeous. 😊
Considering how good Tom Arnold was in this movie, compared to his other movies, is proof that the quality of the director does have an effect on the quality of the performances.
Great movie. The beginning, where Arnold comes in with the scuba comes from the beginning of Goldfinger where Sean Connery does the same. By the way, the actress who plays Juno Skinner is in another movie with Sean Connery called Rising Sun (a police mystery set in Japan).
This is the first reaction where I notice how much effort you two put into your hair. I can see large diameter curls & the extra shine. My late wife Natalie had straight-hair-itice & from today, I can tell you two do as well. She was not ashamed to buy the highest end hair care products. She was only a 1/4 gray when she passed last year @ age 54. Stroke.
Always a lot of fun. The "You're Fired" scene is cute. There are a lot of impossible scenes in this one, but they are always fun. Another one you might check out, if you haven't, is "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" with Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. It is a fun premise and lots of action.
This is about as perfect a movie can be: the combination of immense action sequences, witty writing and comedy scenes, sexiness but not crudeness, smart casting, etc
It's good to see the old 7 mile bridge. I have fond memories of driving over it when I would drive down to the Keys from Miami. Fishing and camping were great. I also remember out of the way inexpensive bars / restaurants where you could get shrimp steamed in beer. Those places are all gone now but I have the memories.😊❤
The movie was absolutely MASSIVE when it exploded at the box office. It was all everyone was talking about. Then a month later Forrest Gump came out and THAT stole its thunder.
8:37 The good old days of being able to drive right by the White House. This film released just before Francisco Duran shot up the White House press room with an SKS and was tackled by tourists (and not he Secret Service) when he tried to reloaded. Although no one was hit this cause Pennsylvania Avenue to be “temporarily” shut down. That was in 1994 and it’s still closed! George W. Bush vowed that his first act as president would be to reopen Pennsylvania Ave. but he never got around to it in eight years!
One of Arnold's common catch phrases I've just recently noticed was, "You can do it!!!" I think I might have first heard it when he was promoting The President's Physical Fitness Program aka President's Challenge back in the 80's. Maybe not. Whatever happened to that program I don't know. But we definitely need it today. We took the challenge every year in elementary school except kindergarten.
Tom Arnold’s crowning role. The “man in the chair” for Arnie & he owned it. The camcorder losing power scene had people in the theater in the isles laughing. The road being blown up is actually American history. They had just completed the replacement and dismantled a section to deter usage. 2 birds, one demolition.
A lovely piece of work by Cameron. This was remake of a short film from France. "La Totale!" which was released the same year as T2. 'Bigger than average' genre film and that worked like a charm. TL is exactly what it's suppose to be. Hardcore Spy/Comedy where the laughs and blasts are on the same level. Arnold personally wanted Jamie Lee Curtis at top billing as the lead actress. Because her character meant as much to the story as her husband's did. The studio changed their tune and were wrong about putting her name under the title's name. The late Bill Paxton as Simon the fake (3rd film with Cameron) was quite the performance. Prior to this film, Cameron (a Marvel fan) was originally involved with Spider-Man and X-Men becoming films which had the industry losing their minds. Also the late, great Charlton Heston as the boss of the Omega sector resembled classic Nick Fury. Other than that, it was great to see Cameron and Arnold working together again. There was a tv series and it lasted one season (2023). I wasn't into watching anyway. Just not my thing.
Thanks for sharing your reaction to one of my favorite films since I first watched it in the theater. As you said, "Mr. And Mrs. Smith" has a similar vibe. So do "Knight And Day," and "Killers."
24:29 Schwarzenegger’s personal HK94 makes another film appearance. It also appears in the climax being held by the SWAT team member saying the news crew has arrived.
Hard To Believe It's Been 30 Years Since This Movie Came Out, Time Goes By,Nice Reaction Ladies, Great Movie, Great Cast & Great Performances By Everyone In This Movie
Yes, Donna Dixon. She was a regular cast member on the sitcom "Bosom Buddies" and the one Tom Hank's character always fawned for. She met Dan Aykroyd on the set of the movie "Doctor Detroit" (1983) and they later married.
The ice scene with the ski gunners at the beginning if either a blatant reference to a James Bond film or a parody of a specific scene (although no using a cello as an improvised sleigh to escape the gunmen on skis in this film).
Initially Arnold didn't want Tom in the movie. Changed his mind after a few terrible other auditions. When Arnold dropped the Walkman, it wasn't supposed to happen so a blooper made it in to the movie.
GOLDEN, I love this movie, my father enjoyed this movie so much, he watched it on repeat I remember as a teenager, his lovely heart, I love him very much, I'm happy he enjoyed it. This world is so dark many times so it's so pleasurable to see something truly funny and lovely.
This movie is such a fun one to watch. I think we get to caught up in looking for more in movies now than just enjoying the ride. This was a great job by Tom, Arnold, and Jamie Lee. They all knocked it out of the park.
Yup Bill Paxton and i find Nicolas Cage as well are those types where no matter what the movie is (or even how bad the movie is) they just make the movie enjoying to watch.
Cameron said this is the James Bond movie he didn't get to make. Essentially it has a lot of the tropes of a 007 film. I personally like it more than Goldeneye, which came out a year later.
"True Lies" is my favorite movie, period. I loved it so much that - before Cameron released a Blu-Ray this year - I bought the Spanish edition Blu-ray (transcoded from a 1080p video) to see it in HD. Yes, the Spanish blu-Ray has English audio and subtitle tracks. Of course, I now own the Cameron Blu-ray, too. "Did you every kill anyone?" "Yeah, but dey were all bad."

Wish we got more James Cameron Arnold movie's
.... good morning from the other side of the Atlantic!😏😅🤣🙃👀.
Can we please appreciate what a total champ Bill Paxton was...playing that particular role this good.....no matter how he came across..what a great professional actor, an that only for a bit that was on screen for less than 10 mins..man I miss him
❤
So do I. I loved him in the movie Tombstone.❤
I recently re-watched Stripes with Bill Murray. Bill Paxton was one of the random soldiers in the barracks.
He was a really good actor.
He was in Terminator with Arnold for like 2 minutes
Bill Paxton absolutely killed his role. He played a total sleazebag perfectly! Love your reactions!
💯 thank you!!
Tom Arnold is the unsung hero of this movie
Honestly I would have watched a spin off just with Gibb and Fizel in a van during missions.. Both are great in the film.
“What kind of a sick bish takes the ice-cube trays out of the freezer?”
True Lies is definitely Tom Arnold's best
@@LukeLovesRose it's not a better film.. But him and Hugh Grant beating the hell out of a dinosaur was pretty damn great to me.
Jamie Lee said she thought she had to get in shape to co-star with Arnold. She succeeded.
She didn't need it. 😘 Watch the movie Perfect and you'll see.
"You're fired!"
Basically Jim Cameron's attempt at a 007 film. It's super quotable, with such a great script.
Also, the chemistry between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jaime Lee Curtis is fantastic in this movie. It really helps to bring their characters to life.
The guy who says "Oh yeah, she's got her head in the guy's lap alright, yahoo" is James Cameron. His delivery is great. 🤣
Holy crap, I never knew that.
I never knew that! So cool! You're right about the delivery. I was even thinking that very thing during this reaction.
I just went back re-listened to it. His voice is so recognizable once you know it's him.
"Have you ever killed anyone?"
"Yeah, but they were all bad."

I always crack up when Paxton and Curtis put their “glasses” together, and you hear clunk instead of clink because they are plastic.
Also loved the chemistry between Arnold and Jaime Lee. Paxton and Tom Arnold were hilarious. No shame in liking Arnold Natalie😊
One of my favorite funny moments is when Tom kisses the lamppost after the bullets all hit it. 🤣
@@rray848 - Mine too... Gil trying to suck in his gut to take cover behind the skinny post (and somehow succeeding) was hilarious. Also the following exchange with the director:

Boris and Natasha were a couple of cartoon spies with Russian accents from an old cartoon called Bullwinkle (a moose) and Rocky (a flying squirrel)
Oh okay!
LOL I'm old enough to remember watching them as a child . . .
@@rowenatulley852 Sadly most people remember Bullwinkle from Dave Collier on Full House.
Jamie Lee's Dance sequence proves you don't have to be naked to be sexy. She actually did slip and fall but recovered so well that James Cameron left it in the movie.
Speaking of...
th-cam.com/video/_rOEf9vF1kc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HdSrB7Nik7RdkV35
Paxton is practically unrecognizable in this movie. He plays a real sleaze ball and still manages to make him sympathetic. Master Class.
You almost think it was his job or something
Arnold has a lot of memorable one-liners through his action film career but "You're fired." tops them all. LMAO!
Absolutely love how easily Bill Paxton disappears in these weasel roles lol, Predator 2, Aliens and True Lies he just falls right into that role with ease. "if they took care of business, Id be out of business" 🤣
😂😂
In "give me the g d page" Arnie shattering the window was not expected. Bill's reaction was genuine.
You mean Tom's
she was married to a salesman who was actually a spy and was having an AFFE-AH with a spy who was actually just a salesman...
Women, can't live with them, can't shoot them.
Прекрасный фильм, мне он очень нравится:) Надо бы его каждый год пересматривать!!! Спасибо вам, что посмотрели этот фильм "Правдивая ложь" (1994).
I still love that Charlton Heston’s character and omega sector is rumored to be James Cameron’s homage to Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D.
That’s exactly who he reminded me of!
I have a very strong attachment to this movie, because James Cameron told me I was the inspiration for Arnold's character. He didn't specify which Arnold.
I like how the sexy voice man was smoking a cigarette while he was doing the overdub for Arnie 😂
Awesome reaction ladies! Yes. Tom Arnold is the best sidekick ever! Arnold absolutely has range. Another of hits that he doesn't get credit for is Kindergarten Cop. Tia Carreras hair big and full...what a great compliment coming from 2 ladies who's hair is always on point. ❤
Thank you!!
The girl that played Arnold's daughter - Eliza Dushku - played Faith in Buffy the Vampire Slayer 😁
And Caroline/Echo in Dollhouse.
The fat guy hiding behind the thin pole will always always be funny to me
Agree. Also fat guys in little coats are always funny too 😃
Jamie Lee Curtis actually did the helicopter stunt herself. It was her birthday, and asked to do it herself as her present.
Thirty years later this is still one of my top 2 favorite action movies. I'm glad you both had a good time watching it.
True Lies is my favorite action movie of all time.
One of the best movie theater experiences I’ve ever had. SO DAMN FUN.
This is not a deep, life-changing movie, but it is an enormously entertaining one, and that's enough most of the time.
Pure entertainment... something Hollywood has seemingly forgotten how to do.
So much fun watching with you two. Thanks, I really enjoyed it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
"Boy, I remember the first time I got shot out of a cannon." Gets me every time.
Recently I rewatched this for the first time since it came out and it is so much better than I had remembered. A real gem.
It’s great!
40:48 thats actually a great point about Arnold. His facial acting has always been on point.
Arnold is just really good!
Awesome movie, so much fun, and Bill Paxton, what can one say. I first saw him in Weird Science and so many other movies as well. Aliens 2 would not have been the movie it was without him, not to mention Titanic. Yep, we got robbed by his untimely death. Miss ya Bill and thank you for a job well done.
Rumor has it that when Tom Arnold was telling the story about getting divorced, and his ex took the ice from the ice trays... that really happened to him when he separated from Roseanne Barr.
I believe it
I miss Bill Paxton. The guy was hilarious.
We all do
"Battery Aziz!"
😂😂😂😂
I like to think that this was before Bill Paxon's character got his life together and got into chasing tornadoes.
It's all connected!
Great job ladies! The laughing between you two is fantastic!
Aww thank you!! ☺️
32:19
That fall was real and you can see Arnold's genuine reaction.
Also Jamie really did that stunt at 40:27
That was really Jamie Lee hanging from the helicopter.
Yaa right😂😂😂...
I love this movie! Its hilarious.
A great cast.
"Care to tango?"
" Yes i would"
"A@#holes"😅
"She took everything, i mean everything, she even took the ice cube trays out of the freezer. What kind of a sick b@tch takes the icecube trays out of the freezer!?!"
Edited out great quip from Tom Arnold's character after she's got her head in the guy's lap:
"Maybe she's sleepy" 😂😂
RIP Bill Paxton. What a career.
I love him in everything he is in!
❤

13:12 _"Say_ something."
Um... 🤔 like what? "Sir, your horse is kind of bulky. Would you mind putting it away until we get to the top floor?"
The USMC used the "Advanced Harrier" which is a slightly modified British Harrier commonly called the "Jump Jet" owing to the fact it can take off and hover like a helicopter
Jamie Lee Curtis was called "Freeze Frame" during the 80's. In this movie you realize why..
It always made me laugh how Jamie Lee Curtis character just happens to be married to a guy who has the physique of a 7 time Mr Olympia.
Fun Fact : when Jamie gets lifted out of the limousine, it was on her birthday and she wanted to do the stunt herself.

She’s mistaken because Donna Dixon is also in Wayne’s world ( Garth’s dream woman)
@@jasong.5165that's the mix up. Now it makes sense.
My favorite 90's movie.
I wish movies today were aimed more at adults, like this one is, instead of teenagers.
A movie like this would be very refreshing today!
Tom Arnold is so great in this movie. He has some of the best lines in the entire film.
💯
I've been in the van for 15 years.
Stuntwoman who did the gag hanging from the helicopter was in Playboy Stuntwomen edition when this came out. And yes JLC body is crazy in this. Lot of people thought it may have been a body double at first.

2:56 - I remember back when I was actually in shape, it was 'that easy'. I wasn't as strong as Arnold, but I was a lot lighter.
💪 ❤ thanks for watching!
Definitely one of Arnold's best! Especially with Jamie Lee Curtis and Bill Paxton! 🤣
Solid Reaction! 🖒
This movie is a timeless classic, and since it's directed by James Cameron, explains its greatness.
Thanks!

8:37 The good old days of being able to drive right by the White House. This film released just before Francisco Duran shot up the White House press room with an SKS and was tackled by tourists (and not he Secret Service) when he tried to reloaded. Although no one was hit this cause Pennsylvania Avenue to be “temporarily” shut down. That was in 1994 and it’s still closed! George W. Bush vowed that his first act as president would be to reopen Pennsylvania Ave. but he never got around to it in eight years!
A shoutout to Bill Paxton!
One of Arnold's common catch phrases I've just recently noticed was, "You can do it!!!" I think I might have first heard it when he was promoting The President's Physical Fitness Program aka President's Challenge back in the 80's. Maybe not. Whatever happened to that program I don't know. But we definitely need it today. We took the challenge every year in elementary school except kindergarten.
Tom Arnold’s crowning role. The “man in the chair” for Arnie & he owned it. The camcorder losing power scene had people in the theater in the isles laughing.
The road being blown up is actually American history. They had just completed the replacement and dismantled a section to deter usage. 2 birds, one demolition.
When Jaimie Lee Curtis says, "I married Rambo," you have to know about the competition / rivalry between Sylvester Stalon and Arnold.
Kind of like the scene in Last Action Hero where Arnold's character thinks Stallone is the greatest action star.
31:40 I hadn't seen _Trading Places,_ yet. This scene introduced Jamie Lee Curtis to my fantasy file.
Y’all reminded me what a fun movie this is. Good reaction, and kudos to your editor.
Thanks!
My favorite scene is when Harry rescues Helen from the limousine.
There is a documentary on TH-cam about this scene alone . "That time James Camerson destroyed a bridge" it's crazy
I’am sorry but Tom Arnold killed in this flick😂😂😂thanks for sharing 😂🤣😂👍✌️
Thanks for watching!
Nice reaction ladies. Interesting note, this was a remake of a french action comedy. Cameron juiced it up on the fun factor. Have a great week.
Thanks! You too!
I’m just here for the two of you. I have such a crush! Two beautiful
Smart film buffs!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Michelle and Natalie, best line of the movie when asked if he killed anybody "yes but they was all bad" Cool movie better reaction. Five hoots.
This movie, Galaxy Quest, and The Fifth Element are movies that are simply fun to watch . . .
Thanks!
Arnold got surprised an really dropped the recorder
"Have you ever killed anyone?"
"Yeh but they were all bad!"
The Corvette that Bill was driving was actually valued in the $150K range ... look at the price in the movie!
I can watch True Lies over again. Such an enjoyable film. Love your reactions.
Thank you!! It is such a fun film!
15:33. That's a true story. Roseann took the ice cube treys
A lovely piece of work by Cameron.
This was remake of a short film from France.
"La Totale!" which was released the same year as T2.
'Bigger than average' genre film and that worked like a charm.
TL is exactly what it's suppose to be.
Hardcore Spy/Comedy where the laughs and blasts are on the same level.
Arnold personally wanted Jamie Lee Curtis at top billing as the lead actress.
Because her character meant as much to the story as her husband's did.
The studio changed their tune and were wrong about putting her name under the title's name.
The late Bill Paxton as Simon the fake (3rd film with Cameron) was quite the performance.
Prior to this film, Cameron (a Marvel fan) was originally involved with Spider-Man and X-Men becoming films which had the industry losing their minds.
Also the late, great Charlton Heston as the boss of the Omega sector resembled classic Nick Fury.
Other than that, it was great to see Cameron and Arnold working together again.
There was a tv series and it lasted one season (2023).
I wasn't into watching anyway.
Just not my thing.
Thanks for sharing your reaction to one of my favorite films since I first watched it in the theater. As you said, "Mr. And Mrs. Smith" has a similar vibe. So do "Knight And Day," and "Killers."

24:29 Schwarzenegger’s personal HK94 makes another film appearance. It also appears in the climax being held by the SWAT team member saying the news crew has arrived.
Hard To Believe It's Been 30 Years Since This Movie Came Out, Time Goes By,Nice Reaction Ladies, Great Movie, Great Cast & Great Performances By Everyone In This Movie
Thanks!
@@ForceOfLightEntertainmentYou're Welcome 🤗, Ladies
It’s actually Garth’s “Dream Woman” from Wayne’s World who is married to Dan Aykroyd.
That’s who I though she was!
Donna Dixon is her name
Yes, Donna Dixon. She was a regular cast member on the sitcom "Bosom Buddies" and the one Tom Hank's character always fawned for. She met Dan Aykroyd on the set of the movie "Doctor Detroit" (1983) and they later married.
The ice scene with the ski gunners at the beginning if either a blatant reference to a James Bond film or a parody of a specific scene (although no using a cello as an improvised sleigh to escape the gunmen on skis in this film).
Initially Arnold didn't want Tom in the movie. Changed his mind after a few terrible other auditions. When Arnold dropped the Walkman, it wasn't supposed to happen so a blooper made it in to the movie.
GOLDEN, I love this movie, my father enjoyed this movie so much, he watched it on repeat I remember as a teenager, his lovely heart, I love him very much, I'm happy he enjoyed it. This world is so dark many times so it's so pleasurable to see something truly funny and lovely.
This movie is such a fun one to watch. I think we get to caught up in looking for more in movies now than just enjoying the ride. This was a great job by Tom, Arnold, and Jamie Lee. They all knocked it out of the park.
I totally agree!
Yup Bill Paxton and i find Nicolas Cage as well are those types where no matter what the movie is (or even how bad the movie is) they just make the movie enjoying to watch.
I can't be the only one who thinks Simon should have gotten his own spinoff. Bill Paxton stole the show as him. I miss him.
Cameron said this is the James Bond movie he didn't get to make. Essentially it has a lot of the tropes of a 007 film. I personally like it more than Goldeneye, which came out a year later.
The guy with the eye patch is Charlton Heston.
"True Lies" is my favorite movie, period. I loved it so much that - before Cameron released a Blu-Ray this year - I bought the Spanish edition Blu-ray (transcoded from a 1080p video) to see it in HD. Yes, the Spanish blu-Ray has English audio and subtitle tracks. Of course, I now own the Cameron Blu-ray, too.
"Did you every kill anyone?"
"Yeah, but dey were all bad."
