“I seem to like **True Lies** a significant amount less than most people do. And it's not because it isn't my type of movie either, Schwarzeneggar as a secret agent in an explosive 90s action movie is absolutely my jam. But I don't love _True Lies_, maybe I saw it too late in life (I was 25 the first time I saw the whole movie) and either I aged out of it or the movie aged out of society, but whatever the case, I just can't really understand why it's so beloved. I would never take it away from anyone, and there's absolutely stuff I like, but I can't really recommend it based on personal taste. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._”

“Cameron and Schwarzenegger team up again for a riot of an action movie. True Lies sees Arnold Schwarzenegger play Harry Tasker, to his wife Helen (Jaimie Lee Curtis) and daughter Dana (Eliza Dushku) he's a safe husband and father working as a computer salesman. Away from the family home he's a top spy for one of America's highest secret services. When Harry is prompted to believe that Helen is having an affair, it signals the start of a sequence of events that will out Harry and lead them both to a confrontation with a deadly terrorist. To hell with misogyny and stereotypical Arab terrorist (Art Malik so OTT he's off the chain man), Cameron's True Lies really isn't concerned for political correctness. His aim, aided by his on form cast, is to chase, caress and explode stuff whilst having a laugh at every turn. True Lies, if anyone was in doubt prior to its release, shows Cameron to be supremely gifted at action set pieces. No expense spared of course, but you still gotta utilise those Harrier Jets, helicopters and horse carrying elevators to great effect. And so it proves. Throw in a tremendously funny script that gives Tom Arnold & Bill Paxton comedy gold roles to revel in; and what you get is a Worldwide box office profit of nearly $264 million. It knows it's nonsense, but it's the good kind of nonsense that Hollywood has to offer. Ever re-watchable, True Lies is undeniably great fun. 7.5/10”

“The zenith of Arnold's career... "True Lies" not only represents the singular moment in the actor's pre-governor acting career where he played more than a one dimensional action hero. In an homage to the secret agent genre, the film opens with an action / glamour set-piece that is more James Bond than a 21st century 007 film. From there the story breaks into what would a few years later become the mold for numerous of Jackie Chan's "goofy secret agent" movies, although Chan would replace the cutting-edge CGI special effects set-pieces with a variety of more economical but just-as-exciting acrobatic, complex choreography hand-to-hand fights. There is one mano-a-mano beat down scene where Arnold takes down his enemy by flushing his head in a urinal, complete with his attempt at a trade-mark one-liner: "Cool Off". (It's a set piece worth comparing to the more recent scene in "Mission Impossible: Fallout".) Along with that, it shifts smoothly back and forth from a rather straightforward super-spy/terrorist story line and exploring the practical troubles of living of the life of a secret agent while having a wife and kids. This film also represents the movie that put Jamie Lee Curtis back on the map after a stint in a slew of flops following her role in "A Fish Called Wanda". "True Lies" put her acting range on display and put to rest any lingering question of whether she was anything more than a scream queen. One of the most hilarious moments she pulls off flawlessly is falling flat on her face while attempting to pole dance, and then getting getting back up and acting like it didn't happen. Without her screen presence, the film would be just another entry in the list of Arnold action films scotched with a twist of comedy. One could go so far as to conclude that the difference in the enduring appeal of "True Lies" vs. the mis-matched partner straight-man, funny-man film "Red Heat" is the degree to which Jamie Lee Curtis caries the fish-out-of-water funny-woman role in contrast to Jim Belushi's semi-funny, street-wise American cop. But, unlike the cold war, the regimented soviet style vs. the fast-and-lost American way, the contrast in "True Lies" derives from the ahead-of-it's time idea of adaptable, underrated woman and her somewhat over-inflated male counterpart. When the secret agents attempt to arrest Curtis's character, she fights back fiercely, with a well placed nut-shot that made women and men alike erupt with cheers and laughter in theaters, something not so likely contemporary Hollywood's constant browbeating with girl power - male buffoonery film after film.”

“**Score: 10/10 — A Timeless, Flawless Blueprint for the Perfect mix of Action, Comedy and Drama** Watching *True Lies* after twenty-five years is a revelation—a testament to its immaculate craftsmanship. It hasn't aged; it has been **preserved in cinematic amber as a perfect, high-octane joyride.** This film is James Cameron operating at the peak of his populist powers, blending espionage thriller, marital comedy, and globe-trotting spectacle into a single, wildly entertaining package that remains **as good today as it was on day one.** **The Perfect Mix:** The alchemy is precise and undeniable. * **Action:** Cameron directs set-pieces with symphonic brilliance. From the breathtaking, practical-effects-driven Harrier jet dogfight over Miami to the climactic horseback chase, the action is both colossal and impeccably clear, a masterclass in blockbuster choreography that modern CGI often struggles to match for sheer visceral thrill. * **Comedy:** The film is legitimately, consistently hilarious. The genius is how the humour springs directly from the premise—a bored housewife (Jamie Lee Curtis, in a career-best comedic performance) thrust into her spy husband's insane world. The "striptease" scene is a perfect cocktail of awkwardness, tension, and liberation. * **Arnold's One-Liners:** Schwarzenegger delivers his iconic persona with brilliant self-awareness. Lines like **"You're fired"** and **"I married Rambo"** are delivered with a twinkle that makes him the ultimate, impossibly cool action hero. He’s a superhero, but also a believably smitten and panicked husband. **Heart Amidst the Fireworks:** This is where the film earns its perfect score. Beyond the explosions, it’s a surprisingly sweet story about rediscovering passion and partnership. The scenes of Arnold watching his wife transform, or the tender resolution of their fractured trust, are played with genuine warmth. It’s a film that can **make you tear up** with its emotional honesty just moments after making you gasp at a mid-air hijacking. **The Perfect Ensemble:** Every single role is cast to perfection. Tom Arnold is the ideal, motor-mouthed sidekick. Bill Paxton’s "Simon" is a sleazy, unforgettable weasel. The late, great Charlton Heston adds gravitas in a brief turn. And Eliza Dushku steals every scene she’s in as the sarcastic teen. They form a constellation of characters who are all memorable, funny, and vital to the machine. **The Verdict:** *True Lies* is **one of James Cameron's most entertaining movies** because it is his most complete. It is the textbook definition of a crowd-pleaser: smart enough for adults, thrilling enough for action fans, funny enough for everyone, and all wrapped around a heart of gold. It is a flawless, endlessly rewatchable monument to 90s blockbuster filmmaking. A genuine, undeniable **10/10** masterpiece. Welcome back to the party.”
