I saw this movie in a movie store a long time ago, and I have never even heard of it, so curious (because I love all the movies Arnold is in) I rented it, and it honestly is the BEST! It has a lot of humor and action, and the story line is great, it may seem like a cheap story line, but this film is one of the best, I don't see why it wasn't a hit in theatres, I think it is just that they didn't advertise it much, but honestly if you want to see Arnold at his best, BUY THIS FILM, I could never get sick of this movie, it is Brilliant. I have bought my own DVD, and I have been showing it to my friends, and everyone that I know has agreed that it is his best, its just that no one has seen it, so trust me, watch this movie

Highly underrated Arnie movie. Is it a comedy? An action movie? A spoof of the entire action movie genre? Well, it might be all of them, and more. This movie could be interpreted in several ways. In it, Arnold is spoofing himself (or his on-screen persona, anyway) and the genre of action movies in general. What's more, it's a story within a story, making an audience member part of the story, giving the whole thing a post-modern twist. The movie is full of genre in-jokes and self-references, making fun of many of the clichés - while at the same time referring to other films, actors, and even other genres, making this sort of a celebration of the entire film business. On the other hand - in case you don't care about all of this - as an action movie in itself, it's still very entertaining. If you like Schwarzenegger action movies, you'll like this one as well. Don't let anyone tell you this is a "bad movie". See it for yourself, and make up your own mind.
