"I married Rambo!" –
Helen Tasker
Why watch this?
This summer popcorn flick has the perfect blend of comedy,
character and outrageous action.
Plot Summary: Harry
Tasker lives a double life as a family man who hides his secret
career as a counterterrorism agent from his wife, Helen. Harry's
suspicions about Helen's fidelity emerge during a mission to
stop a terrorist organization from obtaining nuclear weapons.
These two seemingly unrelated storylines eventually intertwine,
thrusting both Harry's personal and professional lives into
chaos as he fights to save the world and his marriage.

Dad's Preview:
This action comedy from James Cameron is really fun to watch. The stunts are incredible and the acting is superb.
Arnold comes across as a suave international spy. Tom
Arnold hits as his assistant and the film's comic
relief. However, it is the
amazing Jamie Lee Curtis who is the heart of the film. She
portrays a neglected
housewife desperate for a little adventure to give her life some
meaning. Well, she gets her wish. I was a little disappointed
that the film's villains were blood-thirsty Arabs. I
feel that we don't need more of that in our
lives. |
