Last Action Hero (1993)
What people think it is: A huge flop and a confusing mess of cliches.
What it is: It’s not really as bad as you remember. It’s pretty witty and hilarious, and it wouldn’t have worked without Arnie. It’s meant to be a parody and a commentary on Hollywood action films. It’s also got a lot of heart to it, plus the action is exciting and fun. What else do you want in a movie?
With an IMDb Score of 8.8 I wouldn´t call it underrated.
Marvellous Soundtrack by the Dust Brothers btw
H.R.Giger desingning the Harkonnen chairs and table adds to the unique atmosphere. Great cast including Juergen Prochnow, Virginia Madsen, Kyle McLachlan, Max v. Sydow, Dean Stockwell, Patrick Stewart and Sting(!)
Looking forward to see the new iteration!
