Film: Commando (1985)

This review contains examples of:

  • Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy: Referenced.
  • Mondegreen Gag: Invoked. One of the villains in the film want Arnold to assassinate the presient of Val Verde. But he whispers the line, and The Critic has a hard time hearing him. After many tries, he makes up what he thinks he said: "Bumblebee Land."
  • Narm / So Bad, It's Good: Invoked; this is the Critic's opinion of this movie:
    Critic: Alright, alright, hold on, hold on, now, let me make one thing perfectly clear: I love this movie. To me, this is, like, the quintessential Arnold Schwarzenegger movie ever made. (Beat) But it's stupid as hell! Everything that is wonderful about Arnold and terrible about Arnold is in this movie. Every over-the-top '80s action cliché makes its way into this flick, it's unbelievable! We got one-liners, we got explosions, we got the bad guys in suits, we got kidnapped children, and of course, WE GOT AHNOLD! It's so over-the-top that it's almost like a satire of Schwarzenegger films, it's just fantastic!
