Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
DukeHerzog OK for starters, this movie deserves far better than the 3.8 it currently holds, hence my 8/10. In truth, this film is a great piece of entertainment, and I can think of few films that are as mindless as they are funny. This is not meant to be Oscar material, but succeeds in entertaining from beginning to end. Bruce Campbell of course makes this worth seeing by himself, but the rest of the cast hold their own. Tom Arnold usually is seen as a bad indicator of quality, but his cheesy dialog has its moments. Rent it, buy it, just watch it, and judge for yourself. It will not be a waste of time.
cimnemonk This is by far one of my favorite military parodies ever, and i loved both hot shots movies. first, let me say that with possibly one exception (scary movie 2) Tim Curry can do no wrong, and he delivered his lines with sterling precision in this movie, pulling off the insane soviet terrorist perfectly. Also, the mere presence of Bruce cambell in anything ressurects this movie from any slightly bad features it may have. well played out, and expertly performed, even by tom arnold. a must see for when you need a good laugh.
bbrasher1 Did I happen to mention that I hate this pile of cinematic crap? Any resemblance between this and the classic tv series is a real shame. Dean Stockwell, usually a fine actor, probably destroyed his career with his portrayal of Captain Binghimton-Joe Flynn has to be spinning in his grave! And of course, Tom Arnold as McHale, need I say more?No redeeming qualities whatsoever. Maybe even worse than LEONARD, PART 6.Rating: -0 out of *****
jimjam20-2 What a load of crap! This movie was sad on to many levels to list, and I actually have a friend who bought the damn thing! I give him crap everytime I see him, don't worry. Tom Arnold works in supporting comedy roles (True Lies) but as the star, he is woefully lacking. Just Terrible.
