ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
John Doe This is the third Arnie movie I didn't like, bu that's ok, he has some good and bad, the story is long and dull but the acting is good. I just didn't like this film.I give True Lies a 3/10
emailuser-25123 True Lies, clearly 1994 was such an epic time for film making.What made this movie great? Well Arnold and Tom. Among others, yes.Great pair and thinking back, highly interesting film.My next idea or thought would be. Since it was clearly, a success. Why not a sequel? Answer? Just didn't think about a sequel. Too good a' film to ruin with a possible sequel. This movie still today blows all minds.Possibly True Lies II, like Last Action Hero-like epic film.Arnold & Tom certainly would be our honor to witness this pair & this sequel once again. The best part about this movie is however it turns out on paper and on-screen it will certainly succeed as a blockbuster.More high-speed driving with Arnold & Tom behind the wheel. Not to mention that Harrier scene was intense. Maybe a bit of Super- Secret-Agent scuba diving for lost at sea Top secret weapon. From which is to be investigated and found by Arnold & Tom. As they proceed to search for this weapon, they just so happen to run across others who happen to be searching as well. At which point Secret Agent, Arnold discontinues the search and rescue weapon. Then proceeds to see what this other entity wishes to do with such a weapon. Where they find they plan to use the weapon not for it's power of destruction but to utilization it's technology to build a highly scientific research development project. Where it's special and specific technologies can be used to build some sort of space device. This "other" entity is not of a specific country per-say but rather it's own operation and entity for exploration.However Arnold & Tom had to succeed on their mission to return the device for safety sake, as their was a flaw they later found that would cause great destruction if not handled correctly. The story can be filled in from there but it would be, not your typical plot and very unpredictable as this other entity isn't "bad" in nature. Just taking it upon themselves to research beyond government allowance. From a research/ scientific approach rather than for a "bad" reason.Everything else can be filled in but it would be amazing to see another performance of this pair.*** --==True Lies II ==--** (December 2018?) haha ;)
richspenc Not a true lie is that this movie is great. Arnie and Arnold, a win win situation. Tom and Schwartz are another styled version of the cop buddy genre. Although they're not technically cops, they're CIA spies, they are still tough buddy and funny buddy going after the bad guys trying to bring back justice. Tia Carrie, Wayne's hottie girlfriend , is here as a sultry sexy assistant to the most dangerous Middle Eastern terrorist group led by "The sand spider", who runs this particularly psychotic terrorist group cause the other terrorist groups (according to Tom) were a little too warm and fuzzy for his taste. Tia , as a very convincing fem fa tel, enjoys working for these psychos because they're 'very well funded psychos. Arnie first meets her at the classic posh Switzerland dance hall dancing to the well known classical tune. We can already guess that their meet ups will continue over back in the states. The very best scenes in this movie are: The dance hall with Arnie and Tia, the posh hotel and horse/ motorcycle chase with the sand spider, the middle section with Arnie's wife Janie Lee Curtis cheating to be with used car salesman Bill Paxton who's pretending to be both a spy and the ultimate ladies's man (both things he turns out not to be too good at), the set up and interrogation room with Jamie and Arnie on the other side (with Jamie not knowing it's Arnie due to the electronic disguising of his voice ("sex with your husband is hardly waving your flag anymore is it?")(hilarious), the big shoot em up fight scenes on one of the Keys with the terrorists, and my favorite, the hotel scene with Jamie pretending to be a hooker (due to her confessing in the interrogation room to wanting wild adventures).What I really liked was the humor and wit mixed with the action. It's like the Lethal weapon movies where it's not just dry action, you got spice mixed in with it too. Tom provided some hilarious comments first, after seeing Arnie's 14 year old daughter steal cash from his coat with his new spy X-ray glasses. Tom: "you're out gunned Daddio. Axel Rose and Maddona, those are your daughter's generation's heros ". Then after Arnie finds out Jamie is cheating on him, Tom: "welcome to the club. No one thinks that it can happen to them the first time. When my wife left me, she took the ice cube trays out of the freezer. What kind of sick twisted bitch would take the ice cube trays out of the freezer!? " There are many other great lines of dialogue and not nearly enough room to write them. I like trick visuals too such as Arnie and car salesman Bill in the car, Arnie listening to Bill talk about how hot his wife is without him knowing he's the husband (the boring jerk), and there's a quick visual of Arnie busting Bill's nose and gushing blood, but it's Arnie's imaginary flash. I like how he and Tom really get even with him a short while later while standing with him over that dam. Oh, and Jamie's hotel scene. She looked hot. In the hallway when she rips off part of her dress, slicks her hair back and touches up her breasts. Wow. And the strip tease in the hotel room. Wow. Jamie had a way off looking so hot when she was younger. First in "Trading places" with a couple of topless shots with Dan Aykroyd, and then in this movie.
adonis98-743-186503 True Lies is amazing great characters played by great actors, awesome effects, cool action scenes and overall a classic Schwarzenegger movie with some cool one liners also like 'Give me the goddamn page'. And probably the most memorable striptease scene ever by Jamie Lee Curtis. The bad guy is good he is not as great as Bennett, the Predator or The T-1000 but he is still a good funny villain the film is basically an action comedy movie and the 2nd underrated most underrated Cameron film after The Abyss. This film needs a higher rating here in IMDb and on Rotten Tomatoes maybe a 8.1 or a 8.3 and a 84% or an 88% on RT. If you are a Jim Cameron fan and an Arnold Schwarzenegger fan you gonna love this movie.
