Titanic is a perfect motion picture.

Fact.

True indeed! Except where I'm from we spell Titanic, A. L. I. E. N. S.

That made me lol!

Not seen True Lies in ages, but it is fantastic, unplug-your-brain fun on a sesame seed bun of awesome. I might have to stick it on tonight, actually....

TRUE LIES? Damn right! TRUE LIES ABOUT ARABS!!! This was the most stereotypical views of a race of people i have seen in a film, besides The Siege of course.

Having said that, it was a pretty good film.

Gotta love Jamie Lee Curtis' striptease!!!

Or even better still, half way through the film Arnie takes off his mask MI style and we find out he was the Art Malik all along!!!? Ha ha!!

There will be a day when I get to re-watch this classic on blu-ray. When people stop pu$$y-footin' around and realise what a cracking piece of 90's Action Cinema TRUE LIES really is.

Behold! The 'Nick Fury' who never was... Ol' Guns n' Moses as 'Spencer Trilby' -

Top class action cinema - the last hour of the movie is insane - so many great set-pieces, I remember the entire cinema literally jumping up and down and their seats at the Florida Keys bridge scene. Bring on the Blu-Ray!

I love True Lies, it's a great actioner that does what it says on the tin, that is all-out-action, Arnie being Arnie (never a bad thing) and some comedy thrown into the mix.
You can never go wrong with some Bill Paxton, too

Watched this randomly the other night on tele, couldn't stand the adverts, so put the DVD on. Forgotten how much I loved this

Really shows Arnie doing great comedy, but y'know Gib played by Tom Arnold was just brilliant in it!

"Same thing happened to me with wife number two, 'member? I have no idea nothing's going on, right? I come home one day and the house is empty, and I mean completely empty. She even took the ice cube trays out of the freezer. What kind of a sick bitch takes the ICE CUBE trays out of the FREEZER?"

Classy.
