Commando is one of the finest pieces of 80’s cinema. The music, the one-liners, the action, the entertainment factor, it’s silly dumb fun. Def. a B movie with great production. So for me it’s an A.

[@samvittighedsfuld7586]

[@AlbertoMartinez765]

[@paulmurgatroyd6372]

I'd argue that Predator was the finest action film of the era, and sadly modern action movies have only gone on to prove that it might still be the best one.

[@puichiung2959]

Exactly! Not realistic but I had such a blast watching it that I just didn't care! Arnold's physique and personality made this type of action movie work on a level of pure entertainment.

[@graverob1910]

“I’m going to the mall and starting a fight.” This guy gets it.

[@catrachocolo]

What is intriguing about Commando is that it somehow manages to be your typical dumb, over the top, clichéd 80s action movie but at the same time also comes across as completely self-aware and almost a parody of itself. Like you said, straight. Usually a movie is either one or the other. I freaking love this movie.

[@countgeekula9143]

Very true. It's completely self aware of its own OTT daftness with a knowing level of camp. I mean, God bless Vernon Wells as Bennett. It's a deliciously camp-yet-Macho pantomime of an action flick. And I love it.

[@awesomereviews1561]

At the time Terminator wasn’t Arnold only success. Conan The Barbarian was a big hit. One of the best OST of all time, and a lot smarter movie that what people think it is. It’s the kind of movie that get better when you get older ( like Robocop 1 or First Blood) because you don’t have the tools to understand those movie properly when you are a kid.

[@jonaskoelker]

As a recent Conan convert, all I can say is So Much Yes! I had fun thinking about the meaning of all the symbolism: snakes, black sun and moon, the 8-armed rudder mirroring the wheel of pain (reincarnation and samsara?), Stygian black lotus (i.e. from the river Styx?), the tree of woe, the riddle of steel. And of course the themes of purposelessness, health vs. unhealthy sexual desires, loneliness, abandonment, loyalty, temptation, pleasure and material comfort versus heroism, and plain old valuing the people you love above everything else. The dialog is very much about characters talking about their decisions in somewhat more general (and thus abstract) terms than what's normal, which makes it easier to see what the same decision principles would mean in your own life, which makes this sword-and-sorcery action-fest more thought-provoking than it has any business being. "Shall we not grab life by the throat, and make it give us what we desire?" // "There comes a time when jewels lose their shine, when gold loses its luster, when even a throne room becomes a prison, and all that's left is a father's love for his child" // "success can test a man's mettle as surely as a powerful adversary". Crom laughs at the naysayers. Laughs from his mountain.

[@CliffuckingBooth]

Yeah like many people say, Conan made Arnold to be known in the Hollywood and Terminator made him a superstar. But both are definitely a masterpiece.

[@Therap1ssed]

I love how Vernon Wells realizes he was basically Freddy Mercury.

[@Braincleaner]

the role of Bennet was recast very early into production and Wells got the new casting, he insisted they keep the costume the same(it was originally fitted for the much smaller other actor) cos he thoght it was funny.

[@Billis75]

Because he was also Wez in Road Warrior (and Weird Science), I'm sure in many peoples' headcanon, Bennet was pre-wasteland Wez. Bill Paxton and Vernon Wells in Commando and Weird Science in the same year.

But muscles doesn't ecuate to strenght, there are tough guys who are generally badass. That is why I could buy this guy fighting Arnold if he's mean and crazy enough. Look at someone like Dan Severn.

I didn't see any of Arnold's movies until I was an adult, but I have a lot of nostalgia for them because I'd spend weekends and summers with Grandpa watching loads of action flicks like this.

This movie is an A. It succeeds at everything it attempts to do.

[@Brenelael]

Actually it was Tim Burton's Batman in 1989 that pretty much ended this genre of action movie. When they cast Micheal Keaton as Batman and it was a huge success it showed Hollywood that you didn't have to be a testosterone dripping pumped up alpha male to be an action movie star. After Batman you started to see the rise of the "Average Guy" action movie hero and movies like this were never really made again.

[@apexone5502]

Wouldn't you say that Lethal Weapon and Die Hard contributed to that as well? None of the heroes on those flicks were 'roided out muscle men and those 2 flicks came out before Batman.

Commando is one of the best things out there.

No reaction to young Alyssa Milano? Also, is it strange that we still see Tommy Chong around but I haven't seen Rae Dawn Chong in many years? Also, "blow off a little steam guy" was played by Vernon Wells who was "crazy red mohawk guy (Wez)" in The Road Warrior.

Rae Dawn Chong got Chris Pratt into acting and Hollywood. She ran into him in Hawaii at a restaurant he was a waiter at, and she asked him had he ever done acting before. She made some calls and that is how he got his foot in the door. She mainly does production work and other behind the camera stuff.

Arnold Schwarzenegger was offered a sequel to Commando, but turned it down. Then that script was re-written to accommodate the new actor Bruce Willis with a character change from John Matrix former soldier to John Maclane a New York cop and became Die Hard (1988).

[@Henrik_Holst]

Unfortunately that is a myth (yes I believed it too back in the day). The fact is that Die Hard begun as the sequel to the 1968 film "The Detective" with Frank Sinatra and is based on the novel "Nothing Last Forever" which is the novel sequel to "The Detective". Sinatra turned it down though since he thought that he was to old for the part and they remade it into a stand-alone film instead. However since Hollywood works the way it does there are of course a chance that the script at some point could have been pitched as a possible sequel to Commando but all of the people involved with the production of Die Hard have denied this over and over.

[@SeanTanktop]

Die Hard is based on a novel called Nothing Last Forever
