One of the worst films ever made, and that includes 'Starship troopers' and having seen it mentioned a few times over the past week or so: 'Battle Royale' aswell.
Just rememered another: 'Toys'
Dire, the lot of them IMO

One of my all time faves! You have to remember where Arnie was status-wise when he made this movie; it was a very original, brave and funny move for him.

Shame it bombed at the box office, I remember me and 2 mates being virtually alone in the cinema. 2 of us loved it and were ******* ourselves laughing, the other one remained stony faced and just didn't get it, wishing it was Commando or Raw Deal...

Yeah it's a parody of action movies... I guess people didn't get it either. I thought it was quite enjoyable.

Well it doubled its production costs at the box office worldwide so would not say it was a complete failer, alot of movies dont even get the costs back at the box office alone, obviously it had the DVD release as well
