I love this film! It has some dodgy cinematography, clunky dialogue, no soundtrack (besides that one cool tune), and a villain which is just a chubby Freddie Mercury. Seriously, they could have tried to make him seem physically threatening especially when he's next to a shirtless Arnie. It is pure 80's action from start to finish, and it's got it all: Retired ex-military spec-ops lead: check. Villain with a ludicrous outfit and moustache: check. Revenge plot: check. Car chase: check. Explosions: check. Gear-up scene: check. One-liners: check and double check!
Commando doesn't try to be anything more than it is; it's a simple premise and it's only ever that. While some action films try to take themselves too seriously, or have some underlying theme which they allow to rise just enough for the audience to notice, Commando doesn't care for that. Rambo had it's subtle politics, but here is just bullets and explosions that save the day, and sometimes that's all you want from an action movie.

This is awful, theres no doubt about that, its a Godfrey Ho movie so obviously it has awful acting, writing, editing, story and plots (yes there are two plots). It is still funny. Plot one is a guy called Billy, I think, who has a hilarious Aussie dubbing and he's facing a villain called Larry who has terrible dress sense. Then a ninja is killing ninjas to draw out the master ninja called Gordon (Richard Harrison) but the evil ninja is sending Gordon letters to challenge him or he'll kill ninjas. So Gordon just stays out of it.
This is something of a 'so bad its good' and will friends it will make for a great laugh, but its still dreadful

Deadpool was a great tease into what could be, and this us pretty much it. Cable is a great bad guy with actual motivations which is rare for a Marvel film. The action scenes and fight choreography are all point, and the humour always hits the mark. Naturally it has plenty of pop culture references so if that's your thing you'll be rewarded. There is a great story here, and a great chemistry between everyone.
I don't quite think they have the formula just right, but this is more than good enough and if the 3rd film is on par with this and I wouldn't really be disappointed
