I was staying in a hotel in L.A. a few years ago, and beside the main elevators in the lobby, there was a plaque that said, "these elevators were used in the filming of James Cameron's 1994 film 'True Lies' with Arnold Schwarzenegger." Arnold riding the horse through the hotel and into the elevator to chase the terrorist is one of my favorite over-the-top action scenes of the 90s, and I was thrilled I got to use the same elevator.

For an action/secret agent/James Bond spoof - True Lies is still today pretty damn epiq. I loved it from the start to the end. In particular when it "slows down" and you get the whole Arnold/Helen storie where we almost forget about the terrorists - then BAM here they are again and we're back in action-land. A bit like a cartoon but in the best possible way. James Cammeron has always been an amazing craftsman. He knows how to cut and edit a movie as well as pacing and rythm. True Lies is no exception :-)

I think the golden age of James Cameron's career was between (and including) The Terminator and True Lies. That's not to say his subsequent films were bad, often quite the opposite, but there's something special about those films which he hasn't quite been able to replicate. I do view Avatar as something of a low point, not counting Piranha 2 obviously. Even though the special effects really were mindblowing I wasn't impressed with the writing in the least bit.

@Oliver Harper, thanks for this nice analysis. I just realized something and its a bit of deja vu. The restroom scene in True Lies; it echos in many aspects to the T3 restroom scene done almost 10 years later. The thing is the scene in True Lies is all practical. It is so honest and real when juxtaposed to the CGI way of doing things with the digital restroom in T3. Computers have their place but clearly, when practical scenes are superior to CGI, what is the point then with using CGI? Sadly, Hollywood cannot answer this conundrum to my satisfaction.

Some quick thoughts: 1. Jamie Lee Curtis is just arch-perfect. 2. Tom Arnold is excellent. 3. Charlton Heston is brilliant and hillarious. 4. Bill Paxton is perfect. 5. Grant Heslov shines really bright in a relatively small role. 6. Art Malik is nailing his performance of the villain. 7. Arnie performs really well and is funny as never before / since. 8. The camera "low battery" scene kills me everytime I see it. 9. The striptease scene holds up even today and is really very sensible to both male and female audiences. Arnie's recorder malfunction is timed perfectly. All in all, this movie is amazing in being action-packed / ridiculous and funny at the same time. Thumbs up :-)

It's odd regarding the obvious stunt double, because many of those moments are moments that Arnold still would have been able to do. Pretending to get punched by the big guy in the bathroom, sliding a bit down the snow while firing, running down the snow etc. I don't get why Arnold wasn't used, and it's one of the issues I have with this film. Other than a few goofy moments that don't always work, it's easily one of Arnold's best films, probably in his top 3 best action films, but that obvious stunt double annoys me to no end. It's so blatant, I wish they'd go back in now for a more natural remaster, and digitally place Arnold's Tasker face onto the stunt double.

Paxton's character was also my favorite... Makes me laugh every time even after viewing this movie 20 times. Love the combination of comedy and action and the story is gripping. The striptease scene is also very enjoyable to watch ;) Great review once again Oliver !

Excellent summary and review of my 2nd fave Arnold movie (NOTHING will beat Conan the Barbarian) and one of fave action movies overall of all time as well. While I don't think Bill Paxton was quite as standout you do, he absolutely fulfilled his role in playing a scumbag the audience is supposed to dislike and who eventually gets his comeuppance from the hero. The whole 'wife wants a little adventure' part of the movie did indeed take up far too much time and could have flowed just as well with at least 10-15 mins worth of filler segments trimmed off from that alone. The real standout of this film to me is Tom Arnold. He plays the Comedic Sidekick role to absolute perfection. I never expected the guy to show such charisma and acting ability from what I saw of him on Roseanne. Blew me away, and from what i've heard blew many critics away too. It's a shame he couldn't turn that success into a bigger acting career. I don't think i've seen him in a movie since.

I think Terminator and Predator are far superior to True Lies. I agree with you on Conan The Barbarian as Arnold's best.

Both kickass movies for sure, and sit high in my list too. I think the reason I loved True Lies so much is because it completely exceeded my expectations. I didn't think it would be anywhere near as good as it was when I first heard that Arnold was going to be playing an American spy, hehehe.

The music on the build up to Arnie firing the missile through the building, is identical to the music on the buildup to the explosion at the end of Aliens. Is it the same piece of music, or just so similar my ears are deceiving me? Great review, as always! I saw True Lies at the cinema and got it on DVD. Always been up there are one of my fav Arnie films! Oddly, I never really took notice that it was James Cameron who directed it until this review lol. DOH!

James Horner recycled a lot of motifs across many movies. You'll hear them in Wolfen, Wrath of Khan, Aliens, True Lies, and to a lesser extent the Rocketeer, Willow and others. Not that this is a bad thing. But once you recognize them in one or two of his films, you will hear them in everything he ever did.
