I'm hooked on this website.

http://www.ruthlessreviews.com/the-ruthless-guide-to-80s-action/

There same hilarious reviews on here.
It really dissects each movie, and shows what kind of message was trying to be put across.
And man, Commando must be the gayest movie ever :lol:

Hehe, thanks for that link, they have hilarious articles! I actually never noticed the gayness of Commando but the reviewer points it out very clearly. ;-) But of course Commando can't win against SiLT - have you read that review yet?

Edit: A few hours later I'm still returning to those reviews. Love the summary at the end of the Punisher review:

What You Learned:

Nothing. I sat here for five minutes trying to think of something, but the whole movie is just a guy in black shooting people and occasionally getting naked.

COMMANDO has been known for being very gay-friendly, but there's a whole lot of cultural studies offerring a reading of homoeroticism in action movies. Hard to top Mark Lester's films for sure. :wink:
