No party poopers here, all three of us were big fans of Kindergarten Cop as kids. But a lot of parents? Not so much. All of the drugs, murder, and mayhem left many of them scratching their heads. Schwarzenegger felt the PG-13 rating hurt them at the box office, but director Ivan Reitman was adamant that the film didn't work without some of the more mature elements. Three decades later, we decided to find out which one of them we agree with or if this is even really an issue at all. Topics include: the star witness who doesn't actually witness anything, this film's connection to Silent Hill, some pretty unusual alternate choices for the role of John Kimball, why Arnold almost dropped out of the production, the confusing morality of the final showdown, and much much more!
