“That’s why they’re tacky.”
“Thank you…thank you for being here.”
God, I miss these guys. 🤣
True Lies need to be released w extras on blu-ray!
Just be patient, in about18 years when Cameron is done with the Avatar sequels, we "might" get True Lies on blu ray. 4K??? We better not push our luck.
@@johnwanner1446We may even get True Lies 2 as Arnie does seem to be going back to his hits for sequels apparently Twins 2 is supposed to be coming out next year i think! Not sure how they can do a sequel to True Lies tho maybe have a different family with this time the wife being the secret agent and the husband not knowing maybe have a black couple this time say Zoe Saldana and Daniel Kaluuya both have done kind of action roles and both younger and black so ticks a lot of boxes and they have a teenage boy and of course has to be slightly different to the original but the boy gets kidnapped like Arnie and Jamie Lee's daughter did in the film and they have to be involved in another mission that Arnie and Jamie Lee are on so eventually team up and all go to save the boy! Could work you know 🤔👍🏻
March 12th, 2024... FINALLY!
Thanks!
actually saw True Lies on a double feature with Beverly Hills Cop 3 in Japan...made me appreciate True Lies more...
I can't wait to get True Lies on Blu-ray. Its such a great action comedy. It actually inspired Stanley Kubrick to have a private screening with Cameron to discuss the "effects"
R.I.P. Bill Paxton.
Bill Paxton is hilarious in True Lies. Right before Arnold face fists him in the short fantasy sequence, his line is "breasts as smooth as a new born baby's ass" or something similar to that. Whatever it is, it's raucous. He plays that squeezy guy so well for the entire performance.
The Lieutenant Dan band played at my base, a mile from my barracks, when I was in basic training. We were obviously not allowed to attend, and lights out was around the time that the band started, but I heard a little bit of "it ain't me" as I fell asleep.
Mi Vida Loca and Bhaji on the Beach are two of my favorite movies 😁!
Mi Vida Loca was surprisingly very good also it was the film debut for Salma Hayek who had a brief part of the film.
@@reneperez7903 Yup.
I spoke w Danny Glover once: super nice man
Cool 😎!
Good 4 U 😉👍
Oh wow, you are so lucky. You can just tell that he is very down to earth.
Forest Gump 👍🌟🌟🌟🌟
Bhaji on the Beach 👍🌟🌟🌟

True Lies 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️ & a half out of 4
Angels in the Outfield 👎⭐️⭐️
Forrest Gump 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Mi Vida Loca 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️ & a half out of 4
7:25 - 11:52 Greatest movie of all time in my opinion. Certainly my favorite. Makes me laugh, cry, and cheer everytime. Thank God for Forrest Gump.
I have to give True Lies a shot.
I'm sure I'm gonna like it, especially if Siskel didn't 😂
If you love over the top action movies, then you will love True Lies. However, Siskel was not off base about the weak middle section.
@@ricardocantoral7672 Thanks for the advice. I'll definitely check it out.
I thought the side story in the middle is what set True Lies apart from other action extravaganzas of the era. Bill Paxton is perfect as the sleazy wannabe spy, and the setup that converges the affair story with the main conflict is pretty brilliant.
@@footofjuniper8212 It did have a purpose but the way that scenario was executed dragged the film down.
@@ricardocantoral7672 perhaps. I know I was never bored. Every time I rewatch, i enjoy the direction the second act takes.
They are right, the subplot of the couple playing spies and cheating is really awful
Yet the movie is a mind blowing piece of action
Roger & Gene are totally right about True Lies. Act one & Act three work a lot better than the second act which completely bogs down the movie. True Lies could have been an excellent film instead it is a near miss with some awesome scenes! 2 1/2 stars
No way. James Cameron knows far more about film than these two morons ever did
i cant believe they gave blood in blood out two thumbs down and mi vida loca two thumbs up
I enjoyed True Lies , but i do agree with both about the middle part of the movie. I felt it slowed down the momentum , but it's still entertaining
I'd easily place True Lies above any Bond film released in the past 30 years.
Better then Casino Royale? Nah
@@DeltaAssaultGaming Casino Royale made the mistake of discarding the material that made the novel so riveting.
@@DeltaAssaultGaming That movie has a poor 3rd act.
I wonder what Siskel and Ebert would’ve thought about Oppenheimer if they were still alive
Forrest Gump was so hyped at the time that i barely even wanted to see it, when i did see it i thought it was an Ok decent film. somehow through the decades though i kept finding myself going back to it and it has become one of my absolute personal favorite films, and never fails to make me feel the emotions i want to feel in a movie, which increasingly in newer films is something i never get. the scenes Roger mentions where Gump is added into real historical footage were the big selling points at the time and where a lot of the publicity was aimed, but to me are actually the weakest parts of the film and often just pointless scenes and a gimmick. the scene where he is on the Dick Cavett show with John Lennon actually makes me cringe and feel embarrassment. what has become clear to me over time is this film is not about Forrest it is about Dan and Jenny, they both have their own demons they are trying to deal with and they are lost which is why they come and go throughout the picture. but whenever they are at their lowest and about ready to give up Forrest is there, and he is safe and he is reliable and he never judges or tries to fix them he is just there. and somehow just his presence helps them both to finally find their feet and make their way out of their darkness, and in turn they both provide him with what he needs to have a happy care free life. it is a beautiful and touching story about friendship and just being there.
I didn't find a single wasted scene in True Lies. Yeah, that's right, even the stuff with the wife having an affair meant something to the overall story. So, to hear these guys refer to that as cruel, I just don't get it. It was about the natural consequence of Harry's lifestyle meeting up with domestic life and how it was falling apart. She wanted something more and as it turned out it was exactly what they already had, and it meant no longer hiding who he was from her. I really thought all of that middle act stuff was great character building. Nah, True Lies is a great flick.
I understand their POV about True Lies but the second act is actually quite fun and interesting. I would feel the same if it was boring but it just has some really funny parts and the JLC dance is legendary.
gene, sure missed the boat on true lies
👎 from Gene. 😆
Angels in the Outfield really is juvenile (which describes most of Disney's offerings) and not to mention the shitty effects. I mean good god! No wonder I pushed Disney away in my later years because they kept making stupid crap like their live-action movies with outdated effects! Call me cynical but IDC because I can't stand sitting through any more of those kind of movies.
imhere
gump was very uneven. the part where he was running made no sense. lt. dan was the best part. funny that in another movie fields and hanks were contemporaries.
