Don't you always wanted a film that will satirize the unbelievable things that happen in action movies? Well you got it. True Lies might be an action movie, but most importantly is a comedy. If you want to see Arnie jumping from a roof with a fucking horse, then you are in the right place. True Lies is a movie that doesn't take itself serious not even a second. Everything that happens is balancing between the usual action-spy movie and the absolute ridiculousness. And because the action part is so brilliantly crafted, the comedy works perfectly in the movie. Everything seems to be going according to the rules and then again not quite. That's the idea, that's the flavour of the movie. True Lies is a highly entertaining movie that understands greatly the stupidity that action films many times carry, it features one of Jamie Lee Curtis' most brilliant performances along with the famous dance scene and it is a movie that appreciates the fact that the audience has digested enough bullshit from action movies and now its time to take its revenge. True Lies is funny, hilarious, fast, wild, naïve, childish and it is all these things knowingly, it is all these things deliberately, making the movie a true bliss for action movie lovers who at last find their way to laugh out loud with the real mission impossible things that are happening. Take True Lies on a day that you are feeling down, there is no doubt that it will make you cheerful, it's so preposterous that can make a dead man laugh and remember that the best things in life are the ones that have understood their futility, have understood their stupidity and they laugh with them.
