True Lies, or Useful Falsehoods?
Added 1/31/2010
The story line is fictional but is based upon
newspaper headlines about arab terrorists, which
have been appearing regularly for decades while
world oil consumption has risen steadily, according
to statisticians.
In the movie, you see arabs with machine guns, and with
consumer electronic appliances such as video recorders.
A question not answered by the script writers is where
the arabs are getting their guns from? There are no
gun factories in all of the middle east, I think, and so
those weapons seem to be supplied by "the West". It would
seem that guns for arabs are readily available as long as
those coloured men agree to only kill other coloured men.
Or perhaps the devil is supplying arabs with guns and
encouraging them to be "anti-semitic" and "anti-american"?
Are you "a Mary can" or are you an anti-American?
"The rich man will sell you the rope to hang himself".
- Michael Moore....Yes, but perhaps he is naive and does
not see the hanging application of the rope technology?
Or maybe he is clever and so the rope is both expensive
and defective?
Do American politicians really care about ALL Americans,
or just them whose skin colour is the whitest? There is
a scene where Schwarzenegger's character uses a meat hook
to kill an arab male. I have been in movie theatres where
white audience members do not gasp, or demonstrate any kind
of emotional reaction when a coloured man is killed on the
screen, but they only react at seeing white persons killed.
It is a kind of engrammatic programming where audiences
(both white and coloured - is anybody really white?
coloured is a relative concept, for white persons do tan)
are brain-poisoned to devalue human beings whose skin colour
is not as white as theirs, it would seem to me.
Schwarz, is a German word, meaning black. And Negger, is
a plowman. Not too many know that. Although western movies
tend to portray coloured men on average as being evil, and
white men on average as being virtuous, in real life, virtuous
men are difficult to find, regardless of skin colour.
That said, Schwarzennegger makes some of the most entertaining
movies, regardless of the correlation between bad behaviour
and skin colour. A positive correlation between two variables
does not imply causality.
The funniest line in this movie I think was Tom Arnold's comment
about the girl's bicycle attire. The audience laughed at that line.
How dangerous is riding a bicycle compared to flying an airplane?
Interestingly, the Jewish intelligence officer looked arabic. That, I
think, was the only acknowledgement that looks can be deceiving.
See, Romans 2:28-29, KJV. So can labels be deceiving. For examples,
not all cops are "good cops" and not all criminals are immoral (Oscar
Schindler, comes to mind). The team-sport mentality is dangerous.
A Jew might grow up thinking he was born a muslim, while a satanist
calls himself a Christian. Ever see the movie, 'Total Recall'? In that
movie, Arnold's character correctly remembered the number of
children the evil cab driver claimed he had.
The "team-sport mentality" will make you go blind as to who is "us"
and who is "them". To wit, the Church is in the World, but the Church
is not of the World. The world are they who do not belong to Christ:
See, 1 Cor 10:1-4, KJV.
"Racists" (satanists) desire to associate (or equate) religion with skin
colour. According to historians, Hitler hated Christianity but felt it was
politically expedient to maintain diplomatic relations with the Vatican.
Why did the Vatican not protest and call Catholic Germans to rebel
WHIL.E THE SHOAH WAS TAKING PLACE? And KNOWING this fact, why
do many still "go to church"? Ever hear of the Protestant Bob Jones
University? Apparently they have a problem with something "they" call
"race-mixing". What are the "True Lies"?

Marital problems plague an international spy who works for Omega Sector, a top-secret government agency charged with the intervention of nuclear terrorism. This movie is a great comedical movie with great action sequence's. The actors are fantasic and play each role beautifully.

Good Movie/Terrible DVD
Added 12/26/2009
This is a good movie. Don't get me wrong. It is deserving of no awards, but it is very entertaining with great action and lots of humor. Widescreen presentation here is terrible. The hard coding of the black bars at the edges do not allow for proper wide screen TV and Blu-Ray player up conversion. The onscreen image in ½ the size it should be.... Wait for the Blu-Ray.

This movie has it all and then some!

This movie has it all...and then some!
I appreciate humor mixed with action, and this movie does so perfectly. A.Swngr plays his part semalessly, and we can almost believe that the Adonis in the three-piece-suit is a computer salesman and NOT a secret government agent. And I suspend disbelief that his wife does NOT gape and wonder at his amazing physique every morning as they get ready for work. My point? The movie does well to make us believe what it wants us to believe.
And Bill Paxton as the used car salesman is hilarious. I laugh every time he's on screen, and A.Swngr plays well against him with comedic responses in good timing.
You cannot go wrong with Tom Arnold as the partner. He is funny and quippy, and he always has A.Swngr's back.
Laughs, gun-play, fist-fights, an incredible stunt on horseback, and a sexy strip-tease... what else could you ask for?
Enjoy and feel confident adding this to your permanent collection.
