A
James Cameron action
blockbuster released in
1994 based on a
French film called
La Totale. It stars
Arnold Schwarzenegger,
Jamie Lee Curtis,
Tom Arnold, and
Bill Paxton. In it, Schwarzenegger is a spy for a super-secret
intelligence organization. So secret in fact, that his wife, played by Curtis doesn't know that when her
computer salesman husband goes to work, he's really shooting up
terrorists on
snow mobiles and flying
F-18s.
Arnold is on the trail of
nuclear weapon stealing terrorists, but when he finds out his wife might be having an
affair, he decides to use the resources at his disposal (
black helicopters and
wiretaps) to find out what's going on. Suddenly his private and business lives become connected and he has to rescue his family and the country from imminent
death.
One of my favorite
films , Cameron manages to blend
comedy,
action, and a good cast (even
Tom Arnold for once) into a great movie. Hell, even Cameron has said it has his favorite characters out of any of his movies.
