Watching *COMMANDO* (1985) for The First Time | Movie Reaction

[@blastradius9136]

Commando is one of those fun action movies from the 80's. Ive watched this 1000 times and never got bored lol

[@dr.burtgummerfan439]

Yep. This one is similar to Stallone's "Cobra" in that they're both over-the-top while still presentimg themselves as serious. Sort of parodies that won't admit they're parodies.

Val Verde is the country Predator takes place in. It was a generic fictional country used by that studio at the time. Fun to think Predator, Die Hard, and Commando are all in the same cinematic universe.

[@louisferdinandceline3016]

I was a kid when my Dad took me to see this in the theater, and so I didn't have to pay for it, but if I had been an adult who paid full price...the moment Arnold hand fed the deer I would have clapped my hands and said "whatever else may happen in this movie I have gotten my monies worth"...I have since seen it countless times on tape and can quote every...single...line...

To answer most of your 'why' and 'how' questions, because he's Arnold. This movie is the best action movie of all times. The cheeseness, the one-liners and so on. Nothing tops 'Commando' in that combination.

[@waterbeauty85]

18:52 Arnold getting the super soldier serum actually makes perfect sense in this story! That should be made canon. "Commando" is a simple fun movie, but your reactions make it even more enjoyable. I'm just going to mention "Raw Deal" (1986) just because it's a decent Arnold movie that everyone seems to have forgotten about.

[@garethdavies8004]

Max (Robert Davi) "Where do you know that cop from?" Kaminski/Joey P. Brennan (Arnold Schwarzenegger) "He broke up a fight I had in an alley, the night you sent those three assholes to take me apart". Cop (Ed Lauter) "Joey P. Brennan, What's the P stand for?" Kaminski/Joey P. Brennan (Arnold Schwarzenegger) "Pussy!". I love Raw Deal. It's 4th favourite Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, my top 10 Schwarzenegger films are:- 1. The Terminator (1984) 2. The Running Man (1987) 3. Predator (1987) 4. Raw Deal (1986) 5. Twins (1988). 6. Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1991) 7 Kindergarten Cop (1990) 8. Total Recall (1990) 9.

As if I had liked them more, I would have place them in there but I'm not fond of them.

I share your frustrations about how people in South American countries are portrayed. Hollywood always gives anyone working in US agriculture a Southern accent. They're also routinely portrayed as complete morons. As someone who comes from an agricultural State, I have wanted to give Hollywood a big piece of my mind for the last 57 years. Hollywood is filled with ignorami who can never be bothered to research where the film takes place.

I use to watch this movie with my dad cause he was the Arnold of our town. Guy walk down our street with a tree just like that to prove anything arnold could do he'd do it better.
