Oh, you action-filled 80's!

Rating: 9/10 (17 March 2013)

A true action classic of the 80's.
Over-the-top super-masculine personalities, bloodthirsty gut-ripping alien, suspense and horror, some drama and a climatic ending - this movie has it all. Not perhaps a "regular" Arnold movie, but one of the best by far. The "actors" are like coked-up bodybuilders, the scenes are over the top, and the killing scenes are like a first person shooter with "god mode" turned on. BUT - this is exactly what this movie is about. Pure, first class show, as advertised.
If you just so happen to get the gag reflex watching some or other "transporter" sequel or another modern "die hard" sequel - sit down, grab a lot of snacks and take a head-first dive into a purely entertaining stress relief that is this movie. Uncomplicated and very entertaining.
