Commando (1985)

[Peter Neal]

There's a German R2 of the DC, whhich can be easily ordered via Austria, NOT via "amazon.de" as it's (not surprisingly) on the German "Index of Restricted Movies".

BTW: Where you aware that "Commando" received a RUSSIAN REMAKE?

It's due for release in Germany quite soon under the imaginative title "Phantom Kommando: Die Rückkehr" ("Commando: The Return")

They'll probably even get the guy who dubbed Arnie to voice the Russian lead for the German language version.

Here are some stills from the Russian redux...It DOES look quite familar, doesn't it?

Like the shopping mall security guard punch-up.

Pint size loverboy Sully panicking when he sees Matrix manhandling mall cops and later the diminutive romeo getting trapped inside a phone booth as he calls for help. Only to be tossed around by our hero while still in the kiosk!

I also love Matrix's burst of superhuman strength when the uniformed bunch all try to pile on top of him and the security guard who tries to impress two female shoppers with the line "Wanna see me kick some ass?"!

Great stuff!

Commando has to be the best Arnie film. I have watched it so many times on vhs dvd Blu Ray any time its on tv ill watch it just cant get enough of it. I remember my father bringing home Commando posters home for me when i was a kid. Wish i still had them now.

I've always preferred Predator myself, but Commando is certainly one of Arnie's best films, I love how he dispatches all those enemies without taking a bullet himself, pure classic 80's action!

The amount of acrobatics in the final scenes is great bad guys doing flips and tumbles like the olympics.
