Review – The Last Action Hero

I never thought I’d live to see the day when I’d write this, but this Arnold Schwarzenegger movie has too much plot. It works reasonably well as a parody of action movies. The problem is that it’s too clever by half for the average action movie fan, but nowhere near clever enough for much of anyone else. Result: a film with a lot of really expensive stunt work that never managed to appeal to any particular audience. Aside from the novelty value that accompanies flops of this magnitude, the movie offers little beyond an odd witty scene or two. Mildly amusing
