Arnold Schwarzenegger is special agent Harry Tasker, a top spy in the ultra-secret Omega Sector who also dances a mean tango- although to his neglected wife, Helen, (Jamie Lee Curtis) he's just a dull computer salesman. But while Harry's been busy fighting terrorists, Helen's been gathering secrets of her own. And when their two secret lives unexpectedly collide, Harry and Helen find themselves in Review: Great twist on classic action-spy films with a stronger comedic take - My wife and I watched True Lies for the first time after her first trip to The Keys. I wanted her to experience the beauty and uniqueness of the area so she would (I already knew, but it would be my first time as well) be able to recognize and connect with a movie we knew spent some time down there. We instantly loved the film. And that connection to The Keys only made it more fun. Arnold and Jamie Lee are a great pair. By no means do all (and perhaps even a majority of) movie and TV couples have the right chemistry. These two do in spades. Both have the skills and presence to own a film all on their own, so the control, respect, and natural abilities of these actors means their couple blend beautifully, neither owning the film nor taking over the story. The story is a great take on the typical Bourne, Tom Cruise, 007 genre. Bad guys chasing good guys for greed and power. Some great locations, an excellent second layer in casting come together to make for a good film. Now add in the humor of this great script, and an interesting premise - wife doesn't know husband is spy, wife finds out, wife and husband end up working together to save the day and their daughter - and you've got a great action film blended into a fun comedy. Overall it's a fun date night movie, guy's night, girl's night, even for the (a bit older) kids, and in my book, it's a great film. Review: One of my Top 5 movies of all time - It's a little (maybe a lot) misogynistic, but some of that is a sign of the times when it was made. Jamie Lee Curtis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Tom Arnold all offered impeccable physical and verbal humor. The special effects made it surprising that it was released in the last millennium (in1994). Love this one!

Great twist on classic action-spy films with a stronger comedic take

The Ultimate 90s Action-Comedy Blend!
If you are looking for the absolute peak of 90s blockbuster cinema, True Lies is it. Directed by James Cameron, this film manages to be a high-stakes spy thriller, a hilarious comedy, and a surprisingly touching story about a marriage in crisis all at once. Why itâs a must-watch: The Perfect Action Duo: Arnold Schwarzenegger is at his most versatile here, perfectly balancing his "unstoppable agent" persona with a bumbling, relatable husband. Jamie Lee Curtis is equally incredible, transforming from a bored housewife to a reluctant, total badass. Legendary Set Pieces: From the horse chase through a hotel to the finale involving a Harrier jump jet and a skyscraper, the stunts are inventive and audacious. Stealing the Scene: Tom Arnold and Bill Paxton provide some of the best comedic moments in action history. Paxtonâs "sleazy used-car salesman" is a hilarious standout. Big Screen Spectacle: This movie doesn't hold back on explosions or scale. Itâs "popcorn cinema" executed at the highest possible level. A quick note for physical media collectors: While the movie itself is a 10/10, be aware that the recent 4K UHD transfer has been controversial among fans due to heavy AI-upscaling and "smoothing" that can make faces look a bit waxy. However, the Dolby Atmos soundtrack is absolutely fantastic and brings new life to the action. Overall: Whether youâre a fan of Arnie, Cameron, or just great action movies, this is a cornerstone of the genre that remains incredibly rewatchable.

Forget the hate! This 4k is pretty good.
I'm not a complete videophile, but I'm not a novice either. Like everyone else, I've been waiting for this (and The Abyss) to get a new release on a format better than DVD, so when I saw this for order I did so without hesitation. While waiting for this to deliver I saw the backlash against this release due to "excessive" digital scrubbing making people look waxy and removing grain. While there was digital scrubbing used, I barely noticed. The picture is fine and definitely an improvement over the DVD. It's not the best looking 4k, but it's no Terminator 2 4k. I've seen reviews give the image a 3.5/5 which I think is fair. The HDR is nice, adds a little flesh tone to people in the night scenes helping to breakup all that blue. The Atmos sound has gotten top marks online, but I cannot confirm that, but True Lies always had a good soundmix. I saw online that this films negative was in real bad shape and for certain scenes digital scrubbing was required. Other digital changes due to an issue with the type of lens used. For the Aliens bl-ray dis Cameron said he used some new filmstock that made the image too grainy hence Aliens' digital scrubbing. I'm just saying something like this has happened before. In the end I have this disc to be good overall where only the most die hard videophile could have any kind of issue with.

Remake du film français « La Totale », James CAMERON se lance dans la rĂ©alisation de ce projet, complĂ©tement diffĂ©rent, passant du simple film de divertissement bien sympa, vers le plus haut niveau en matiĂšre de spectacle, trĂšs spectaculaire et versant dans une action dâenvergure, mĂȘlant un humour aussi drĂŽle quâintelligent, comme rarement vu sur grand Ă©cran. Sorti en salles en 1994 et pourvu dâun budget plus que consĂ©quent, il fera un vrai carton, les spectateurs adhĂ©rant immĂ©diatement Ă cette comĂ©die extrĂȘmement efficace, respectant lâesprit initial, mais remplie dâoriginalitĂ©, beaucoup de scĂšnes Ă©tant inĂ©dites. Harry Tasker est un agent secret, il sâintroduit dans la demeure du milliardaire Jamal Khaled, soupçonnĂ© dâappartenir Ă une organisation terroriste et dĂ©robe des donnĂ©es informatiques. Il se rend ensuite Ă la soirĂ©e donnĂ©e en son honneur, oĂč il rencontre Juno Skiner, une spĂ©cialiste de lâart perse, qui est proche de son cercle et dĂ©clenche une explosion afin de fuir. Revenu chez lui, il retrouve sa fille Dana et sa femme Helen et leur raconte sa journĂ©e de reprĂ©sentant en informatique. Cette derniĂšre, secrĂ©taire dans un cabinet juridique, lasse de mener une vie monotone, rencontre un homme nommĂ© Simon, qui prĂ©tend ĂȘtre un espion et sâattribue les exploits rĂ©els de son mari. Au dĂ©tour dâune conversation, Harry dĂ©couvre le pot aux roses, pris de panique que sa femme puisse le tromper, il dĂ©cide de prendre les choses en main et la met sur Ă©coute, afin de dĂ©couvrir la vĂ©ritĂ©. Ma critique portera sur lâĂ©dition Blu Ray en import espagnol. Le disque dĂ©livre un trĂšs bon rendu, lâimage est superbe et se rĂ©vĂšle nette et prĂ©cise, affichant de belles couleurs et le contraste est trĂšs soutenu. CĂŽtĂ© son, il y a bien une version française, proposĂ©e en Dolby Digital 5.1, tandis que la version originale sous-titrĂ©e en français est proposĂ©e en DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1, qui reste Ă privilĂ©gier, en raison de son dynamisme, ainsi que pour la clartĂ© des dialogues et bĂ©nĂ©ficiant de trĂšs bons effets sonores, assurant la justesse des voix originales, qui est inĂ©galĂ©e. Cette Ă©dition Blu Ray surpasse toutes les prĂ©cĂ©dentes versions DVD, sorties il y a quelques annĂ©es. Le casting de trĂšs haut niveau est tout simplement excellent, avec en tĂȘte dâaffiche, la superstar Arnold SCHWARZENEGGER, qui campe Harry Tasker, qui cache depuis quinze ans Ă sa famille sa situation dâagent secret, il est tout autant crĂ©dible en homme dâaction, que dans la partie comique oĂč il excelle, une simple expression suffisant parfois Ă crĂ©er un rire, crĂ©ant Ă©galement la surprise dans des scĂšnes plus intimes, quâil rĂ©ussit Ă transposer avec classe, comme notamment une scĂšne de danse quâil partage avec Jamie LEE CURTIS, qui interprĂšte Helen, sa femme Ă lâĂ©cran, qui dĂ©couvre tout un pan de la vie de son mari, quâelle ne soupçonnait pas, Ă ce titre, la comĂ©dienne est trĂšs convaincante, Ă©poustouflante de sincĂ©ritĂ© et de drĂŽlerie, elle prouve tout son talent, en passant par toutes les Ă©motions et assure une performance magistrale, le duo quâelle forme avec Schwarzy fonctionnant Ă merveille. A leurs cĂŽtĂ©s, une galerie de seconds rĂŽles qui sont au diapason, avec Bill PAXTON, hilarant en type lambda qui se fait passer pour un espion, Tom ARNOLD tout aussi drĂŽle, en co-Ă©quipier et soutien de Harry, qui emploie un humour dĂ©capant, Tia CARRERE est trĂšs convaincante en marchande dâart, tandis que Art MALIK est trĂšs crĂ©dible en terroriste et tout aussi redoutable que sa comparse et lâon retrouve Ă©galement Eliza Dushku, dans lâun de ses premiers rĂŽles au cinĂ©ma, puisquâelle campe la fille rebelle du hĂ©ros. Sans compter un camĂ©o de Charlton HESTON, qui incarne le chef de lâagence dâespionnage. MenĂ© de main de maitre par James CAMERON, le film dynamite tout sur son passage, au propre comme au figurĂ©, tant lâaction est menĂ©e tambour battant, sans aucun temps mort, on ne sâennuie pas une seule seconde, les rebondissements sâenchainent, le tout saupoudrĂ© de touches dâhumour imparables, qui viennent encore augmenter le plaisir de regarder cet excellent divertissement. Devenu culte au fil des ans, il nâa pas pris une ride et se regarde toujours aussi bien, 27 ans aprĂšs sa crĂ©ation. Surprenant et captivant de bout en bout, lâintrigue est magnifiĂ©e par un cocktail qui mĂ©lange Ă merveille tous les ingrĂ©dients rĂ©unis pour produire un film, non seulement de qualitĂ©, mais sachant surpasser la base dont il sâinspire : une histoire passionnante, un casting dâenfer menĂ© par un duo gĂ©nial, des effets spĂ©ciaux trĂšs rĂ©ussis, un humour percutant et une musique harmonieuse. Qui en rĂ©sulte une pĂ©pite du genre.
