This is one of my favorite Arnold flicks from the 80's, it's got everything an Arnold fan would need!
The movie opens with the Austrian Oak carrying a tree (wonder if it's an oak haha) in one arm and a chainsaw in another. It shows Arnold's (John Matrix I think his name was) muscles from multiple camera angles, oozing with testosterone. He gets to his house and starts chopping the wood, and as he brings the ax up one he sees a figure in the blade. He suddenly turns around AND....it's his daughter Alyssa Milano. So the opening credits keep rolling with him playing with his daughter and being a normal guy. Then the credits end, and so does his happy day, helicopters appear on the horizon.
The higher-ups from his military days come from the helicopters asking him to get back to work, but before anythign else can happen,
Arnolds house is attacked, and his daughter is kidnapped. Theres a few scenes right away that are memorable. He goes into a little shack and reveals what seems like a small arsenal of weapons! Man, I want a shack like that in my backyard! He then hops in his Truck (with no brakes), and starts to drive down a huge hill! So the guys getting away with his daughter praise him for his guts and start gettign freaked out because ARNOLDS COMMING.
Well the car ends up crashing and Arnie get's tranquilized and then is confronted with a nemisis. He says he has a certain timelimit to kill someone for him or his daughter dies. So when Arnold's on the plane he kills his escort then tells the Flight Attendent not to wake him "He's dead tired" and get's off via the landing gear.
He then treks through the airport to catch one of the other henchmen and gets a woman to follow him in her car. Arnie had to rip the seat out of the car to sit in it haha. They get to a mall, the damn woman rats on Arnold then he beats up a few cops and pulls a few stunts in the mall including a Tarzan swing from a huge ballon..type thing..
They end up getting in a car chase and catching the thug, get some information from him, move on to another thug, get more information and then they go shopping. I don't mean shopping for milk and eggs, Arnold plows into a weapon store with a vehicle and starts filling up a cart with craploads of weapons.
He then eventually ends up where his daughter is, on the badguys's island. And this parts just aweseome, decked out with face paint and weapons on every limb of his body he plows through these guys like they were nothing. It's like Arnolds a human video game with god mode on. He uses weapon after weapon killing the henchmen, only suffering a bullet wound leaving what seems like at least 100 men dead. He then ends up facing (of course) his arch rival in a basement. He takes him out by impaling him with a pipe! at the end of a knife fight. And father and Daughter have a heartfelt reunion and the movie ends.
If your an Arnold fan, or think you are, and haven't seen this....SEE IT!! It's 10$ to buy on DVD, I bought it so should you! There's action the WHOLE film practically, cheesy Arnold one-liners and much more Arnold goodness.
