Last Action Hero/YMMV: Difference between revisions

Line 12:

* [[Needs More Love (Sugar Wiki)|Needs More Love]]: And A LOT of it. The movie itself is an homage/parody of Arnold Schwarzenegger's movies, quite a risky move from today's California governor. Most things about which people complain, particularly its crappy and corny script during the in-movie scenes, are actually [[Self-Deprecation]] [[Played for Laughs|played for humor]].

* [[The Problem with Licensed Games]]: Although the film itself is a pretty interesting [[Deconstruction]] of action films, the developers of the tie-in game decided to play everything very straight.

** Of course, if you wanted to get meta with it, that's perfect because it's likely any ''Jack Slater'' video games sucked too.

* [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot]]: Even those who love the movie acknowledge that it has a kick-ass premise, but the execution falls somewhat short.

** On the other hand, to get everything you possibly could out of the plot, the movie would probably have to be ten hours long and involve rather a bit more navel-gazing and a bit less fun than is expected of what's still ultimately a summer blockbuster movie.
