As fun as it gets!

This big-budget action film provides the perfect blend of action and humor. Fast, fun, and always clever. Quite violent, with lots of exciting stunts (although the most the real show-stopper scene would have to be Jamie Lee Curtis' strip-tease.) Although Schwarzenegger never rings quite true in the domestic scenes, the chemistry between him and Curtis was terrific. Tom Arnold was never better (before or since) playing the best comic-relief sidekick ever.

Disappointingly few features on the DVD. One burning question remains: with all the crappy movies that are followed by crappier sequels (hello "Children of the Corn" I and II), why was there never a "True Lies II"?

Funny and good spy cam stuff

I enjoyed this movie and found it to be a great comedy. A computer sales guy hides his true identity to his wife (Jamie Lee Curtis) when he really is an agent. Helen Tasker begins to feel not wanted and needs more excitement in her life. She begins meeting men at coffee shops for her writing and guys show up after reading an interesting article in the paper making her believe he is the guy. Albert Gibson stops at their house to pick up Mr. Tasker for their missions. He places a spy cam cigarette pack on the counter and sees their daughter take money. They eventually find his wife meeting men at the coffee shop and pretend to set her up. It is quite funny and one of my favorites.

One of the Govenator's Best

Arnold did "COME BACK" In 1994, when this movie was released, the critics slandered it terribly yet all us action movie lovers that like Arnold went wild for it. Opening scene was fantastic, exciting and almost believable from start to finish with Charlton Heston putting up a great Cameo appearance as Arny's boss and head of a super secret Government anti-terrorism faction. It's a plot of James Bond caliber and beyond. The cast was superb and who didn't love Arny commandeering a Harrier to seek retribution and protect the USA against terrorists with nukes? Bill Paxton played a great part as did Jamie Lee Curtis transforming from a mousy housewife to a hot bodied super spy contractor, 15 years before she became the "Activa Yogurt" lady.

A great action film with an awesome cast

True Lies - Great action film with an awesome cast

Crazy story, an amazing cast, and superb direction makes True Lies one of the best Arnie films of all time.

Arnold, Jamie Lee, Bill Paxton, and Tom Arnold round out a prefect cast. True Lies is one of the funniest action films ever made.

Final Verdict:

5/5

Rent or Buy?: This film is definitely worth buying, it's great action that doesn't take itself too seriously, and you'll laugh every single time you watch it.
