Review of Commando (1985) by Mark B — 17 Jul 2017
A true 80's action classic that doesnt go out of style. Is this a groundbreaking, soul drenching motion picture masterpiece? NO!
This is a straight up 80's action movie, full of the cheesiest one liners that cracks me up everytime I watch it...and I LOVE it!
Arnold is fantastic in this over the top action film that you can feel is trying to be somewhat serious but just can't get there due to the one liners and the directors use of making Arnold seem like a real live ''HE MAN''.
Everything our hero does and says in this movie is so funny as Arnold delivers it with such deadpan humour that you as the viewer can tell is really unintentional.
This really is such a classic in the action genre that I feel to this day has not been replicated. It's the sort of movie where your hero has 1000 bullets flying at him and not one hits. And because it's Arnold it just makes sense. It truly is an action masterpiece and I feel worhty of a top 3 spot in the 80's action genre.
