Probably the end of the classic Arnold era. John Matrix > John Kimble > Now we have John Kruger. Probably the best bit is when he flees from an airplane without a parachute.

5/10. Some memorable bits but pretty 'meh' overall. Vanessa Williams looked gorgeous in this.

I just watched it in full the other day (it was leaving HBO NOW). I found it so dull as a kid I turned it off. As an adult, it's still pretty meh, outside of a couple memorable moments (afformentioned plane sequence as well as the cartoon crocodile scene among them). The ending where Arnie goes full Bond villain on Caan and his coherts is hilariously mean-spirited. 5/10 I guess.

I would say 7/10. Not one of his best but I feel it is underrated compared to some of Arnold's other movies.

5/10 (Thumbs Down) ; but decent enough for a viewing.
for the record... I used to think that movie was solid as I re-watched it a fair amount many years ago. but at this point in time it's not a movie ill re-watch.

While a bit excessive, I don't find it mean spirited because those are the VILLAINS of the movie and all three of them are very bad people who have had who knows how many people killed. They are the kind of people who think they are above the law and can get away with anything...but they can't get away from a train.  Let's say forgiveness of those kinds of people is not my strong suit and shall we not forget that this is a silly OTT action movie. It isn't meant to be taken seriously. |

It's one thing to kill the bad guy during a kill or be killed situation, it's another to fake your own death by teleporting out of an exploding van, taking the bad guys who are in the middle of due process, and parking 'em on train tracks like lanbs for slaughter.  Especially when Ahnie did the whole "better man" routine right before that and spared Caan's life in the big climax. I wasnt offended or anything - it made me laugh my ass off - it's just the least heroic action movie ending ever. Lol. |

7/10... An entertaining Arnie action-vehicle.
