David S. @baxter667 Dec 17 Not as terrible as you would think. Yes, it's a formulaic film, but it's still pretty good!! It does have elements of the time it was made, but it's also a decent film with a decent story and one of the last really great films that Arnold did. I enjoyed it, and it's still a great action film!!! See more Cork B @RT87142816 Nov 29 Last gasp of Arnold's 80s Action movies, and it isn't good. Eyerollingly thin plot with horrible twists. Add to that, Arnold tries to do a more nuanced conflicted role, and when the role calls for a 0.7, Arnold's face kinda contorts before he spits out the inevitable 0 or 1. Arnold was meant to be a brick to smash things, and those are his best roles. This should have had a different lead cast. And John Leguizamo was wasted here. Literally as well :) It wasn't the worst thing I've ever seen - better than just about any Scott Adkins flick, but still a very poor outing for Arnold.

P @Archives1987 Oct 14 This movie is truly what it is titled according to being a Hollywood movie. I saw this movie at the time of its release and it is clearly not my favorite. The plot and character development could have been a lot better than what is shown in this movie. For the time and era that this movie came out- you can tell that Arnold Schwarzenegger was pretty much wrapping up his career at the time before becoming the Governor of California. I can't really recommend this movie because of the fact that there was a lot about it that would be too much to mention in this review that would not make it worth seeing. 1.5 out of 5 stars- this movie truly is what its title is.

Arnies wife and kid are killed by terrorists, Arnie befriends the terrorists deaf child, kills the terrorists and then in the closing scene gets a big hug from that same child. I want my 1hr 48 minutes back See more Aaron B @RT56980081 Aug 15 Collateral Damage doesn't deserve the abysmal review scores it has. I mean... sub 50% makes sense. But not this bad. It's a decent thriller, despite a few weaknesses... like Schwarzenegger's acting and enunciation, a few weak supporting actors, and some less than stellar effects shots. But these are all weaknesses people are willing to overlook in other Schwarzenegger films, so I'm left trying to guess why the hate? Maybe people weren't in the mood for terrorists blowing up buildings 5 months after 911? Or maybe others didn't like the fact that the terrorists were Columbians (who have never carried out an attack on U.S. soil) instead of Islamists? Maybe people wanted 1980s Arnold, while he was now in his 50's and trying to figure out what kind of movies he could still pull off... something a little less superhuman... a thriller that could have worked with any number of actors. Andy Davis never captured the magic of The Fugitive before or since, but he's a decent director. So I'm unapologetically going with 2.5 stars. See more Read all reviews
