It's a damn fucking classic movie!
I've been watching it time and time again since childhood. I still like watching it now since I get a daughter.

Im actually going though commando withdraws right now. My last viewing was sometime last year.

Bennet has to be one of the best Arnold nemesis since Thulsa Doom.

Quote :
"Screenwriter Jeph Loeb states that the film was originally conceived as a vehicle for Gene Simmons (who passed on it), and later scripted with Nick Nolte in mind to play the lead as an out-of-condition former commando struggling with the demands of his mission. Walter Hill was originally involved in the development process.[3]

The original concept was for an Israeli special forces–Mossad agent, who is sick of the continual death and destruction in the Middle East. So he quits Israel and emigrates to the United States, where he is forced out of his self-imposed retirement after the kidnapping of his daughter. This was modified and further adapted when Schwarzenegger was cast; some of the original dialogue can be viewed in the deleted scenes when Matrix says he regrets his past actions."


Holy shit. It could have been You Don't Mess with the Zohan.

[Edited on September 5, 2013 at 11:48 PM. Reason : Another funny scene is he fights with Cook and breaks into a room where a couple are having sex.]

Chinese and Hongkong versions of the film name are very interesting.
China translates it as ???? which means fighting by himself.
Hongkong translates it as ????? which means ghost general.

A little trivia that I'm sure many of you Commando fans already know,

His side kick in the movie, Cindy, is played by Rae Dawn Chong.... Tommy Chong's daughter. Yes, Tommy Chong as in Cheech and Chong.

Also his fight with Cook. They disturbed a couple making love.

^ That scene is unreal I think. Also he got his weapon from a shop. That's unrealistic.

I like right after that when the dude sticks a gun in his face so he grabs it and chops it off with a machete.
