A a 2tttti Century Fox Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis with Tom Arnold in True lies which lifts off in cafes Heaters Friday. Chuck Vinch staff writer a on movie True lies rated r a a a must see a Worth your time a a passable entertainment a coming soon to a video outlet near you and you can wait emerging from the rubble of last action hero like the terminator strolling through an Oil tank explosion Arnold Schwarzenegger returns to the formula that made him an icon a namely lots and lots of bullets bombs babes bloodshed and butt kicking. That a not to say this movie does no to have quirks. Chief among them is the source material a negligible 1992 French film about a spy whose neglect red wife thinks he works for the phone company. A in the Ham listed hands of Arnold and writer director Lames Cameron that idea is pumped up to 25 times life size and carved into a distinct three act production. The result is an americanized version of a French sex farce wedged Between the Schwarzenegger i an equivalents of the shelling of Sarajevo and the bombing of Baghdad. Arnold is Harry Tasker an agent for the secret Ariti terrorist outfit Omega sector. Along with his partner the glib. Gib Tom Arnold he takes on Alt kinds of kooks Bent on world Domina. Tion. In this ease the bad Guys Are Raggedy Arab terrorists led by wild eyed Aziz Art Mali who smuggle five Black Market nukes from the former soviet Union into the United slates Wilh a plan to bring the world s Only remaining superpower to its Knees Schwarzenegger and Cameron hark Back to the Golden Era of James Bond to set up the Story. In the opening scene Harry emerges from a River in full frogman gear. He unzips to reveal a formal Tuxedo and calmly infiltrates a party at a Mountain chateau where some of the guests May offer leads to the terrorists. After several scenes of Standard Schwarzenegger pyrotechnics the film suddenly switches gears to focus on Harry a Domestic life a sequence that poses the question he routinely saves the world but can he save his mar Rigac. Helen Jamie Lee Curtis his wife of 15 years has no idea what he really does. She thinks he a a Boring computer Salesman who travels a lot. With the spark gone dead she looks for excitement to a Sleazy used ear Salesman Bill Paxton who pretends to be a spy and thrills her with talks of his heroics. Although Harry has shown scant interest in Helen he a chilled by the idea of losing her rather than springing for Flowers and dinner however he kidnaps and interrogates her then forces her into a bogus Mission in which she must pretend to be a Hooker. Posing As her John Schwarzenegger   in dowed Curtis stripping to skimpy Black. Underwear and Lancing dirty will titillate Many male viewers the scene.  grading. The fact is Harry is an emotion ally abusive Goon who manipulates his wife As easily As the High tech toys he uses on his missions. Eventually this strange interlude gives Way to the real business at hand which is slaughtering those Pesky terrorists. A a. The last reel packs All the firepower for which Schwarzenegger is famous with truly inspired stunts some involving creative use of a Marine corps a so hairier Jet. The film is too Long for its facile plot  change Between Helen and Hany a  a a Yah but Dey ver Oil  As for the acting Curtis screams a lot and Schwarzenegger As usual is just another special of feet. And there Are at least to endings too Many. On t he plus Side Tom Arnold is a.  can hold his own in the wisecracks de part me lit. There a also no denying that the stunts Are outrageously spectacular. Put it All together and you have a movie that is fast noisy and mindless a everything we be come to expect from the big Guy. By that Standard True lies has to be considered a three Star Success. A a Page 10 sunday july 24,1994
