When astute JoBlo reader 'exterminatrixx' pointed the way to a trailer for a "Russian remake of COMMANDO", I assumed it was simply a new action flick that was influenced by Mr. Schwarzenegger's fine work.

But nope -- while it takes a few liberties with the original (a skimobile, a hotter stewardess -- all due respect to Rae Dawn Chong), it otherwise seems like a scene-for-scene repeat of Arnie's 80s masterpiece of cartoon violence. In fact, it might be even further over-the-top. I don't know what they're saying, but I don't think it really matters. Dig it.

love it
get an American distributor. I want to see this on the bottom shelf of blockbuster next week. Which will be about how long it takes to get that horn loop out of my head.



That dirty shirt he had on is like some kind of ode to the Arnold action shirt archetype.



At least it wasn't Raw Deal - the black sheep of the Arnold 80's action flick family.

beeeaudiful!
A cheesy & shitty eurotrash remake of a gloriously cliched 1980's comic-book bullet ballet... who could ask for more? seriously, i wanna see it. At least this guy is more comprehensible than Arnie (god-bless-his-soul) Schwarzennegger was in Commando!

copy-cats
at least they had the decency to copy hollywoods love of having people with machine guns fire at an easy target, and completely miss by a mile, leaving the unprotected hero to save the day...



honestly, if one more movie has a guy in a helicopter shooting and missing a target on the ground, i will physically yell at the screen to move the stick a little to the side, so instead of...

the stewardess is Alexandra Ursulyak, I haven't checked if her name will show up in english as it's MY way of latinizing her name

Oh, C'mon
Now, granted, that trailer is some funny shit. But once the reality strikes that this is an actual film- and not schnanigans- one can't help but feel sad.



Remake or no, COMMANDO will always and forever ever be a cheesy, trashy Schwarzenegger classic.
