Arnolds best performance he was underated in this film


Arnolds best performance he was underrated in this film the critics really gave a hacking but i thought it was gd 2 see him try something different and not go out gun blazing and he played a human being at the end of the film his character believes in the human spirit rather than get all macho a great film

I agree his acting was top notch in here, the scene where he's face to face with The Man gets every time.

I agree it was really the only time Ahnold played something of a flawed character who lost his faith but redeemed himself and not a macho alpha male full of silly catchphrases and winking at the camera while driving a motorcycle 80 miles an hour with one hand and shooting bad guys while holding a machine gun in the other hand. I also think it was the only Ahnold film (Terminator doesn't count, since he was a machine) that he dies in the end. As far as underrated Schwarzeneggar films go, this is his best acting performance.

I can't speak for his acting, as it has been years since I've seen the movie but I like that they made him look like an every-man and convincingly pulled it off.
That probably marks the only time they were able to manage that.
