The cheesiness of this movie is fun…for about 20 minutes. It couldn’t decide if it wanted to be serious or go all in on “jumping the shark” This movie had poor writing and an identity crisis. It has decent moments but they were too spread out and the film dragged terribly. This should have been trimmed down a lot more. I loved this movie as a kid, but as an adult, the quirkiness is too much to love the movie. At least Arnold looked like he was having fun. This movie killed DC movies for about a decade. So give it a watch to see why.
