A testosterone-filled, macho bulls*&!, gun totin, bullet flyin', absurd action- fest, Arnie style!

When a retired Special Forces operative by the name of John Matrix (Arnold Schwarzenegger) gets wind of his past soldiers being killed, he's later attacked on the grounds of his own home. He's captured and sent away on a mission to assassinate a Latin American president, and if he doesn't pull off the job, then his daughter Jenny (Alyssa Milano) will be killed. Matrix puts together his own plan to rescue his daughter and kill everyone responsible for invading his life. … more

Another Arnie 80's action cheese fest, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Lots of over-the-top action, cheesy one-liners, overblown music scores, all so much fun to be had watching this. Simply put, if you love 80's action movies and Arnold Schwarzenegger, this is popcorn action heaven.

Arnold is mad as hell when his daughter is kidnapped and declares war on the world in this action movie. Ultra stupid at times but it's ultra entertaining for an action film.

Lacking 30% less nutrition then other action movies but has lots of high fructose syrup and sugar.

Movies like Commando can't be made anymore. Oh, a good thing you say? What happened to the simple days when a guy with a gun and any reason you could think of for blowing away a small army was all you needed? Everything now has to be plotted out, planned and it makes for movies while a hell of a lot more logical a whole lot less fun. Less fun means fewer repeat viewings and needing to find better ways to spend your time. For good old fashioned … more

A sadistic 80's action film starring Arnold.

Commando follows the story of Matrix (Schwarzenegger), a former covert special Ops soldier who's targeted for revenge by one of his most despised enemies (Dan Hedaya). The goons kidnap his little girl (Alyssa Milano) and they hold her until he assassinates a newly elected Latin American president. But old Arnie isn't about to do any body's dirty work and vows to kill anybody and everybody who gets in his way. Betrayal is something else on his plate as he learns his old "buddy" … more
