This is actually one of his favorite movies, but he admits it has problems.  I got to see this sometime in the future.  Enjoy the review:

It's an awesome movie.  A 10/10 from me.  How much you like it will vary a lot based on how much like ultra corny 80s action movies.  Good review from the NC as usual.

The Critic did miss one great bit though - he should have shown the bit where Arnie is shooting WAY to the left and killing a ton of guys, then one random guy to the right flies back and dies for no apparent reason.  Or how about all the obviously recycled stuntmen?

Love this film. From the awful, super cheesy opening through all the carnage to the kick ass Power Station song during the ending credits. My favourite thing about this film, that he didn't seem to pick out is when they drive into a telephone pole at high speed without seatbelts. Arnold simply gets out within a second of impact, when most people would be knocked out, or even dead. Awesome.

I actually recall when I first saw this film.  My parents and I were visiting my Uncle and Aunt in the Midwest.  He had HBO and this came on.  Honestly, this film was flawless to me as a ten year old kid.  Watching it as an adult is differnt because as NC pointed out it is just awful...BUT...its awesome and always will be.  This was the template for 80s action flicks far as I'm concerned.
