Commando (1985)
Country: US
Technical: col 88m
Director: Mark L. Lester
Cast: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Rae Dawn Chong, Dan Hedaya, James Olson
Synopsis:
An elite commando who has retired from government service makes one last use of his superior combat skills when his daughter is kidnapped by an old associate.
Review:
Tongue-in-cheek Rambo spin-off for the new action star, made palatable by the co-star's irreverent asides, and briskly put together, but with an incessant thumping soundtrack and a total disregard for 'collateral damage'. Improbable, cynically violent, and jokey about its many borrowings.
