GOIN' COMMANDO

#40: TRUE LIES (1994)


Listen Later

It's the Season 2 finale and for this one we went big. Real big. We're talking about Box Office Jim himself.

We convened IN PERSON for the only time this season to watch one of our favorite movies of all time: 1994's TRUE LIES starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jamie Lee Curtis, Tom Arnold, and Bill Paxton, directed by James Cameron. We did our best through a few beers and a few hits to try and distill what makes this movie an action classic: It's basically a live-action cartoon with big-time set pieces, amazing practical effects and stunts, and plenty of comedy. We also delved into some of the xenophobic stuff in it that hasn't aged as well and has led arguably to all action movie villains being white guys now, as it should be. Thanks for listening and we'll catch your ass down the road for Season 3!
