Advantages: Enjoyable

Disadvantages: Not the best of the genre

Unfairly slated at the box office by critics and many movie goers alike, this film cost $100,000,000 to make and made a whole lot less than that, and to this day, has not broken even.
However, if one peels away these offputting opinions and watches it without all this downplay, then you'll find an enjoyable film that takes the mikey out of itself all the way through, and at the action genre as a whole.
The basic story is a movie loving kid has been given a magic ticket that allows the bearer to be transported into the movie they are watching and leads to all manner of fun, action and amazing (for their time) special fx. Arnie is his usual self and the kid offers a good comedy interlude and all the scenes seem to link well.
The picture quality is good (although blacks are dark grey rather than pure black) and the DD5.1 soundtrack is consistantly good, placing spot effects and the like all around you.

Comes recommended for a good night in!
