Beyond Repair

Forget about the bombing tie-in to 9/11 and terrorism. This is just another mindless Arnold cartoon. Totally improbable.

Leguizamo must have been between paychecks.

Arnold should not make any more movies. Period. And especially no more movies in which he is supposed to play Americans, with names like Jones and Smith and whatever; in his bodybuilding days, he was known as "The Austrian Oak". But he must have SWALLOWED the oak.

It's obvious nobody has ever been able to help him ditch the accent, and they never will. Apparently all the steroids have thickened not only his pecs but his vocal cords as well. A good actor is supposed to be able to do accents (Olivier, Streep, Oldman, even Ryan Phillipe did a credible Scots turn in "Gosford Park").

But he was great in the first Terminator, a mono-syllabic role.
