“If you want your kid back, then you gotta cooperate, right?”
“Wrong!”
Hahahhahaha thst line is so stupid now that I think about it hahaha .....its just like no I dont care about my daughter, I want to kill haha
The part that kills me is that he's sitting there chilin' in Matrix's chair while extorting him.
T3ch3m1cal
Let off some steam Bennett.
I'm sorry sir but you cant do that.
T-800: "Wrong!"
@@exitar33 Just another day in the office but he doesn't count on the creativity and determination of Matrix.
"Leave anything for us ?" "Just Bodies"
Best ending ever
My favourite line is right at the beginning:
"And if you want your kid back, then you gotta cooperate, right?"
"Wrong"
If ya'll kids ever wondered what people did before there was internet. This is it. This is the stuff we did. These are the things we talked about.
Ryan Gosling they do. But they mostly do a lot of different things now. There are even some people who don't watch old movies or talk about them at all.
Yeah but we met in person, went to the video store, rented them, went home and watched it together and then talked about it. We didn't stream it separately then text about it.
Could not have said it better myself!
@vomittie The point was that the choices you speak of change the experience to be something different. Does it change it for the better, for the worse, we don't really know, but the choices change things.
@T-Bob well for one thing i would rather take water from the well cos the fact is the water is fresh spring water where as tap water is contaminated with chemicals and definitely doesn't taste as good as the well water
For the love of VHS I love this series! Thank you Cinemassacre for such amazing and fresh content!
Agree! Easyer to make and great to watch!
+Claudio Paola
*A GREAT NEW SERIES!!!!*
Actually I think we said it around the same time and yours was more coherent and well written. I apologise.
I absolutely agree. This is slowly becoming my favorite show on the site! I actually dug out my old tapes & player to rewatch some of my favorite movies b/c of this show.
@Smokey McJoint "fresh" for Cinemassacre, i'm sure he means, James has always done movie reviews/discussions fully planned and scripted, this off-the-cuff style is really different for them, but as he stated he's doing this now to save time for his many other projects that are ongoing
FUN FACT: The shootout at the end of Commando is in the same mansion used in BEVERLY HILLS COP ending shootout scene. :) :)
+rebelyell1983x
*NICE!!!!* 😎😎
That mansion was made with Adamantium.
Vernon Wells plays the greatest Freddy Mercury ever
He played a better Power Rangers villain
"This isn't a plane. It's a canoe with wings!"
"Well then get in and start paddling."
I like how the yellow Porsche gets wrecked and when Arnold leaves in it, it is in perfect shape.
TheDuke013 that’s how good the movie is
or how he rips the seat out of Cindy's car with his bare hands.
This is how all my wrecked Porsches end up moments later ; ) 🎉🎉
Commando is one of my all-time favorite Arnold movies.
Agreed.
They need to bring back Rental Reviews! About the only movie reviews I watch.
Commando and bloodsport are the two supreme masterpieces of cheese action. They are cheesy and funny but also somehow awesome and actually good. I’ve seen so many action movies and none can hit the perfect sweet spot of those two movies. The perfect balance of horrible and awesome is like a yin yang. I think those two movies are the secret of life and the key to happiness. Crafted by god himself on the 7th day.
@@razorback7736 Nope
Those are both my favorite action movies! Commando has more action/violence, while Bloodsport has the better story.
Bolo was a bad ass. Bolo fighting Arnold could have been epic.
@@sykosteve777 Also the awsome kumate song.
I always preferred Kickboxer over Bloodsport.
Ah the good ol days of video stores memories keep coming back Cinemassacre fan for life
Exactly my thoughts. .. good old time
omar Balooshi definitely!
Super Hoops TV I know right!
Joe Blow awesome!
"Yeah" - Mike Matei, 2018
It’s better than any other time he talks.
"The thing is" - Other two guys, 2018
That's why they probably brought the other 2 guys in. They keep the conversation flowing.
I dont expect much from the android sent by cyberlife
@@syndromeofadowns only a hugh mungus?
Commando is one of my favorite childhood movies along with The Last Dragon and Big Trouble in Little China.
And so help me God if Hollywood ever tries to reboot or remake any of the three!
“ Do not disturb my friend ... he is dead tired "
7000 days late but you can come in whenever. When I hear commando, I always remember; Rambo, commando, Rambo comando, Rambo Commando
"Who eats Ice cream and THEN lunch?"
Um, only the coolest, buffest, log carrying dads ever!
Arnolds pizza place on TH-cam , lol
Probably that huge morbidly obese guy on the screen...
I have and proud
My Dad!
These dudes aren't stoners
So Commando is Taken, before Taken was Taken
That's actually so true haha. Again, Commando was ahead of its time and helped set up so many future movie plots!
It's pretty much Tekken 2
This is the 80s Taken with campy action, comedy and excitement.
It's taken from tekken, takin tekken
I'm taking a point
I'm really loving these new Rental reviews James! I hope you keep doing them
TotallyRadicalRetroGames agree 🐸🙏
delatroy I'm super excited for the HeMan episode they mentioned! That movie has a ton of great content for them to discuss/laugh at.
Chang your name to toadally radical
I agree with you, James. Commando is my favorite Schwarzenegger movie as well. Great action, great one liners. The best
I just don't understand why Arnold is identified with Terminator so much, when this movie is better. Nobody ever mentions Commando.
Christopher Martin Movie night
“I let him go”
My favorite usually rotates between, Total recall, Commando or T2 but I also really love Running man, True lies and Predator a lot. Ofcourse Twins, Kintergarden cop and (as a guilty xmas pleasure) Jingle all the way bring a comedic note to Arnies carreer.
Well it's the cheesiest of 80s action cheese. It's such an archetypical of an 80s action movie that it can be seen as a parody of that era.
Commando is the real Taken!
ziljin
John Matrix has a particular set of skills...
Ha ha so true
Taken is garbage
I more thought of Taken as a PG13 Death Wish. Well, Bronson's Death Wish.
Technically, Commando was basically the inspiration for the "you kidnapped my son/daughter/etc." trope in action movies, much like how Die Hard was the inspiration for the "one guy up against a group of gunmen with hostages" concept.
Right, I'm off to watch Commando then.
Rambo Commando Rambo Commando Rambo Commando
I get it lol
Commandor Ambo
The Video Store must be next to "Lightning Fast Video Repair". :D
+Jack Barnes
*THOSE HACK-FRAUDS!!!!!*
*NEVER FIXED MY VCR!!!*
I KNOW WHAT THAT IIIIIISSSSS!
Do they carry any Night Court tapes?
Maybe not, but the last tape of "The Day the Clown Cried"
“Where’s sully?” “I let him go.” 😆
I'd like 'honest Arnold' "Where's, Sully?" "I dropped him off that cliff over there"
:D
best line in the movie
He became Charlie, and now prepares "Dinner Reservations" for special clients.
"Remember when I said I'd kill you last?"
"Yeah! You did!"
"I lied..."
I really miss this Rental reviews videos...its just a massive nostalgia feeling...u guys should reboot this series...It's great....the scenarios, everything is great!
"Let off some steam, Bennett" is the greatest one-line-zinger in movie history.
heyitsadam- It's also the name of one of the greatest songs by Austrian Death Machine, too.
THIS INTRO IS SOOO GOOD!!!!
Vernon Wells as Bennett is hilarious, he looks like he'd just been auditioning for the Village People and wandered onto the set of Commando
It’s October 2019 and we STILL don’t have that review of He-Man!
July 2020, still no He-Man
September 2020, still no review of He-Man.
October 2021, still no review
I must have seen this movie like 20 times before my friend pointed out the yellow car was magically repaired when they flipped it back over.
Got a lot of time on my hands lately so Cinemassacre helps me get through the days. No lie.
Is something wrong? How you doing?
I'm good my man & thanks 4 asking.
Did you break your ankle?
Same here bro.
Well I have almost 0 time on my hands, so I'll swap you :)
The guy in the vest would make a great biker in an 80s movie
1903tx Yes lol
+1903tx
A bad guy in a mad max movie?
THAT One-AHOLE the bad guy in Weird Science
An extra in Mask
one of the bumbling bikers in 'Every Which Way But Loose'
You gotta do suburban commando with hulk hogan!
~ 3:10 - "It's He-Ma'am, thank you VEEEERY much!"
Best part for me is when Arnold throws that circular blade at the guy in the shed. The amount time I spent trying to pause it on vhs without the blur blocking the exact moment of contact. Those were the days
Lol
Commando banned in Norway back then :p
Same!!! Looked like a friends dad haha
They just don't make them like this anymore. Action movies of the 80s and 90s were so good. I remember watching this one as a kid and it literally inspired me to start working out lol doing pushups and stuff because I wanted to be cool and strong like Arnold. Anyway I did get nice muscles for a kid my age so there is that. Thanks Commando.
+Ninja
Because nowadays, cheesy/over the top movies aren't made anymore.
Agreed. And don't forget 70s action movies too, especially Steve McQueen and of course Lee Marvin and Charles Bronson - who were the tough guys ya don't fuck with in movies pre- Arnie and Sly.
"Bennet" played the Mighty Wez in Road Warrior. Now that's a proppa villain!
The steel drums! I loved the music in this movie!
the soundtrack always sounded identical to the 48 hours soundtrack to me. I love the steel drums nonetheless.
Rae Dawn Chong is Tommy Chong's (Cheech and Chong) daughter. She also played Squeak in The Color Purple, and every time I watch it I always think of Commando.
Inf Know was looking for this comment. I fully expected them to bring up that she was Tommy Chong's daughter
And she was in "Time Runner" with Mark Hamill.... (not a very good movie though)
Soul Man with C. Thomas Howell- a movie about the lotto with Michael Keaton, and I think The Principal with Jim Belushi.
Inf Know yeah my dad told me that gem while we watched it one time lmao
"Far out man" with Tommy Chung and c Thomas Howell
Do one on The Punisher (89) with Dolph Lundgren !!!
Dude YES
garbage
What? Vernon Wells auditioned for the AVGN film and you didn't cast him? You cannot be serious!
what was he thinkin
Definitely should have found a part for Vernon
I *adore* James and everything he does, but that just blew my mind when he said that. I mean, the guy they got was fine, but in an "internet movie" way... Vernon would have been *amazing*! I just kept hoping that was a joke! :( (incidentally, everyone should watch Circuitry Man to see Vernon as Plughead).
Yeh I would have loved to see him recreate his commando character
Dude right after I saw this video I found a movie on amazon prime called “No Chance” it was a total rip off of commmando . Like a sequel to commando and Vernon Wells repsrised his role . Made in 2017. I just had a hilarious blast watching it
Its like hanging around with friends
cutler82 yea if you dont have a social life. So pal what you got planned for later on?
I'm enjoying this series....feels Red Letter Media-esque
Hey You I can see why you prefer RLM. But I have such a profound admiration for James as a critic that I prefer these. But yeah RLM is also enormously entertaining.
is Mike Matei replacing Jim !?!?!?!?!?
This is way better than Red Letter Media. RLM has it's moments but they're pretty much douchebags & trolls
I loved that when he answers the phone at the store he says "yeah". Great video!! I'm loving this stuff.
This is a great series! Keep ‘em coming please. 80’s kids need stuff like this to keep the awesome memories of video stores and vhs alive.
Remember when i said i would watch this video last...i lied
skijumpnose wublululuaaaaaa!!!
Remember when I said I'd get ready for work and watch this video later... I lied.
I had to let him go
skijumpnose That was a good one! 😁
That's right, skijumpnose! You did!
Commando and Rambo II...boy 1985 was a great year for action movies.
+1997residente
*YEAH, MAN!!!!*
Fist bump 👊
1997residente great pic
"Somewhere! (dom dom!)
Some how! (dom dom!)
Some one! (dom dom d-d-dom!)
WE FIGHT FOR LO-O-O-VE!"
Now that's it's over had to go back to where it began😥
I'm really digging this series thus far, what a welcome surprise. Feels like you're actually there with James & Co. just shootin the shit discussing films. The movie store environment is both nostalgic and cozy. Also, that intro 👌
Perfectly said!
Yeh they stole the RLM thing hard but it was a great thing to steal
+Marubolas
*COULDN'T AGREE MORE!!!*
Nicely said, my man or woman
Yuup, a welcome surprise indeed (for me, at least). If only James had a podcast.
Really enjoying this new series.
+Rhys Peregrine
*WE ALL ARE!!!!*
John Matrix has to be the best name ever.
I want James to review REVENGE OF THE NERDS at some point. Thumbs up if you agree.
a swing and a miss
I’m really really really liking this series
Tbh I wanna go to James's house just to see his collections
Super Randomizer201X we all know the real reason you wanna Rob his ass.
FAllEn OnE lmao
It would be awesome. I would love to see his house and watch a vhs and play a nes game.
I want to go to James house and give him a hug
I'm real glad you finally did this!! Commando is probably my favorite movie hands down and I remember watching it as a kid as well. I still watch it occasionally.
You've never seen Predator???!!!!!
@@hardtymz2517 lol I know, I know. Both movies will always hold a special place for me. Grew up watching them with my dad.
This is one of the greatest youtube channels ever because they add great ideas and keep it fresh. You can tell these guys had a blast doing this video.
Oh man i miss video stores. Everything was a gamble and you just went by the cover. It was a treat. Yeah netflix is amazing but now it's not special. It's like eating pizza every day.
Everything sucks now. The video store was my favorite place.
There's no commitment with Netflix. You can spend more time browsing than watching. But you could be headed home from a rental store with the worst movie imaginable and you were still going to watch the entire thing.
Looks like some of these hosts eat pizza every day.
Good video, but needs more Rich Evans.
Xavier on Life - My thoughts exactly. 😂
Rich is ok, but what it really needs is satanic hollywood rites performed by McCullay Culkin imho. ;
I’m surprised it took them this long to rip off RLM
that's gonna be great
Uhh ohhh the TH-cam beef is gonna start
Please make more episodes of this. I love it. I'm into movies too, and you all bring so much useful trivia and info. And a lot of titles in my "to watch list. ".
Keep up the good work!
𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘰 is the quintessential Reagan-era action movie.
Demolition Man mentioned! DOooo eeeEEET! NAOW!
+Rausku
*DOOOOOOO- ITTTTT!!!!!!!*
DEMN YOU BENEDICT DATS ALL MY VEAPONS AND ZAPPERS NOW LET DER BOY GO
Would you guys consider covering Jurassic Park for its 25th Anniversary? It would be really fun.
+Bryce Mckenzie
*PROBABLY!!!!*
THAT One-AHOLE
Would you do something for Jurassic Park? Maybe another Cheesy Dinosaur movie, like Caveman 1981?
They already have Dennis Nedry with them.
Bryce Mckenzie yeeeeah!
Rental Reviews is the best thing Cinemassacre have done in the past few years by a long way. I really hope it comes back, the dynamics between everyone talking movies is brilliant!
Man I just couldn't even imagine living in James's shoes for a day. I'm so fuckin' envious!
Is this replacing Half in the Bag?
(sigh)... let me go get the tums...
Is Mike Stoklasa replacing James Rolfe? Is Rich Evans getting replaced by Cinemassacre?
@@gurvmlk seriously? red letter media...go watch
@@gurvmlk fair enough but half in the bag is all the new films that come out re:view is older films but most are classics you will have seen, if you like cinemassacre you'd like red letter media but upto you lol
I eat VHS for breakfast, and right now...
I'm very HUNGRY!
* Insert VHS tape *
Are you a VCR?
Man, the more of these I see the more I want! This is such a fun way to talk about some older movies!
I love Commando, when you guys mentioned the Freddie Mercury (Vernon Wells) lookalike, I couldn't stop laughing as I used to think this myself! Great commentary and loving this series guys!
The "equipment" scene was almost perfectly copied into the 8-bit game "Operation Wolf". Hell, the whole game is probably inspired by that movie as well. :D
This needs some Rich Evans. Everything needs some Rich Evans.
Raif Nation Oddly enough, if that were on a t-shirt, it would be something Rich Evans needs. ;)
They should have Rich Evans on
+Raif Nation
His contract is with redlettermedia, a contract by Mike Stoklasasa. Rich Evans is ©RedLetterMedia.
So mike owns rich.
James Rolfe for BotW
Is Rental Review replacing Plinkett Reviews?
Love the opening. Reminds of going to the video store in the 80s and 90s.
He-Man rental review please?
oh hell yeah
a year later. Still waiting!
Commando drinking game, every time someone dies, drink.
Every time I play that game, I die as well...
Sounds like a good way to get alcohol poisoning
Official death count 81 lol
Richard F I remember back in the day my friend and I realized the ridiculous body count and tried to count all the deaths in the movie. We eventually gave up.
JohnDaWhale3 better take another drink, then
Where is Rich Evans???
+TomLion
In Mike Stoklasasa's basement or in his parents' basement.
nice Brandon Tenold PFP
The intro makes these videos just that much more awesome!
Hey Cinemassacre! Great review as always! You guys are masters of the craft. Fresh content(well, I'm on a backlog) and it's always entertaining.
I REALLY enjoy these reviews in the old movie store setting. Everyone's contributions to the conversation is enjoyable, as well. Good stuff!
Commando is one of the best action films of all time, no doubt. It has always been one of my absolute favorites. I think out of all of Arnold's films this one and True Lies are right at the top along with Terminator 1 and 2 and Total Recall. This is a great series, definitely hope it continues!
Carolina Eric not to mention Jingle all the way
Mr Sparkle who could forget end of days
Hey? Don't forget Conan the Barbarian.
_"Grant me revenge!"_ Still sends shivers.
Junior deserves an honorable mention
Don't forget Predator
Love Commando! I agree with it being the MOST Arnold movie of all Arnold movies .
"John, stick your head out"
whenever my mates and I would play CS this quote was often used.
i really like this setup for your reviews. i used to work in a dvd store, and sometimes certain customers would come in and we'd talk endlessly about movies. this feels like the platonic form of that. a videostore somehow forgotten in time.
not shadowbanned yet sounds awesome, I love it when you just talk about something you just watched or read for hours.
Nice.
I'm still holding out hope for Commando 2. The main villian should be Sully who wants revenge after somehow surviving that fall off the cliff. "THIS IS FOR LYING TO ME!" 😁
Jacob Dominguez Commando 2 should be a crossover.
Commando v. Rambo
A buddy cop (soldiers of fortune) movie crossed with all the gore of the latest Rambo flicks and all the 80s-esque quips you can stomach!
Yeah, it's a versus movie, so we also get a scene of Arnold and Sly emptying their machs at one another while standing 8ft away from each other. Lol
Typhon Viserys THAT WOULD BE AMAZING!!! 😂👍👍👍
“Welcome back John so glad you could make it!!” While twiddling the tip of his big knife.....
Commando does also have one of the best Intros of an action character ever! the cuts of Arnold with the wood log and the music, brillant.
That setup looks like the adult section that was always way in the back and obscured by beads or curtains. Cooter from the Dukes of Hazzard was also a nice touch to bring back that 80's video rental store nostalgia!
I freaking love Cinemassacre rental reviews. Please keep this up!
You know what's bullshit?
… Not having Cinemassacre's Rental Reviews back in the 90's.
I really love the way you guys constantly talk over each other all the time
Love the set!
Mikey Gaming- I love this set, as well.
Watch for Dennis Nedry, James, he might hack your computer and steal something.
heroesytumbas good to see I'm not the only one who saw the similarity
Please!! Goddamnit, I hate this hacker crap.
Nearly 2 years later, still waiting for that He-Man review.
They were supposed to make Commando 2 with Schwarzenegger reprising the roll but he pulled out and it became Die Hard. Bruce Willis even makes a passing reference to Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movie as John McClane.
They wrote a scene where Arnold and Rae Dawn Chong's characters hookup in a love scene but was removed for time and Flow. There was aLos a scene written were the guy that got his arm chopped off by Arnold used the arm and slap the soldier with his own hand...😄
PLEASE do more of these, they seem like relatively low effort for you guys and a lot of fun to make, as well as for us to watch. I could listen to this shit all day.
I'm loving this series and it's frequency. Feels good to have another series to look forward to from Cinemassacre.
James, being a metal fan and an Arnold fan you should check out Austrian Death Machine if you haven't already. Parody metal band whose song titles are Arnold quotes. They're pretty badass.
i have to check this out :')
The Intro..LMAO!!! TRUE ORIGINAL! Love'n it. Need more of this!!
My favorite quote of the movie is "UUUUULAALLAAAAAA!!!!!"
Commissar Gamza Now, I know I've never been dropped off a cliff, but I'm fairly certain that I wouldn't make THAT sound. Lol
Odd bumping into you here. Keep up the Good work with 40k content!
Ooh la la!
He does that in Conan a lot! Lol
