Commando (1985)

Summary: 022 - For our first foray into the wonderful world of Arnold, we are looking at a film that both set the template and kicked off the ‘Lat Pack’ era of action movies that we at Double Impact hold so dear. We also cover the great Arnold Vs Sly rivalry that this very film helped instigate, the secret link between this film and Chris Pratt, and we even manage to squeeze in some quick Estelle Getty chat - what more could you ask for? But while this film helped set the foundations for the action films that followed, does Commando stand on its own as a great film today? Or has the action world moved on?
