LOS ANGELES - as Charlie Sheen, Arnold Schwarzenegger was formerly known as an actor. Of course, not a great actor, but still. He played in many films.
And, as Sheen, Schwarzenegger is notorious these days for his antics off the coast of the camera. Revelations that the marriage of 25 years of former California Governor with Maria Shriver ends and that he had a son with a member of the janitorial staff he developed the honour in a way that even he was probably never.
If, as we did with Sheen, we will return both simpler, happier and think about the five best films of Schwarzenegger. And there are actually five:
? "trues Lies" (1994): Schwarzenegger still injected an element of humour in his action movies, a tongue-in-cheek recognition of his own reckless ridicule, for better or for worse. Its puns, for example, can be painful. But it is the best example of his ability to blend the laughs and shots, gags and explosions. Associated once more with Director of "terminator" James Cameron in this remake of a French comedian, Schwarzenegger stars as a spy posing as a vendor of computer light maniéré. When he suspects that his wife (a funny and sexy Jamie Lee Curtis) has a relationship, it uses all the gadgets and weapons at his disposal to win her back. A screwball blockbuster.
? "The Terminator" (1984): one of the flicks final action of the 1980s and the film really that Schwarzenegger a superstar. It has one of its lines classic and cited most - I'll be back "- and allows us to put the suffix"-ator "at the end of any word to describe him in a corny way." Cameron also put itself on the map, as Director and co-author, with this fable Sci - Fi on a cyborg unstoppable sent back to the future to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) until it can give rise to... Well, you know what is talking about the "terminator" series Clever, intense and articulated, spirit filled with a dark mythology of biblical proportions and the kind of action developed sequences that would become one of the trademarks of Cameron.
? "Terminator 2: judgment day" (1991): a rare suite which is as good as the original, if not better (you listening, makers of the films "Hangover"?). "t2" was super high tech in its time, with transparent Visual effects which allowed Robert Patrick, the even more deadly terminator character, known as the T-1000, change of form and to heal instantly. Schwarzenegger is back as the original terminator, which must now protect the son of Sarah Connor. Of course, the characteristics "t2" yet another of its classical lines - "Hasta la vista, baby" - which he would use to cringe inducing effect in various actual circumstances.
? "Total recall" (1990): inspired by a short story by Philip k. Dick and directed by Paul Verhoeven, it is a brisk, paranoid, violent adventure and darkly funny. Schwarzenegger stars as Doug Quaid, a construction worker living in the future who discovers that his entire existence has been a manufacture. His true identity (which has something to do with March) has been cleared, but virtual reality travel help him unblock his own mysteries. This vision of an effective future is supposed to be surprising in its soullessness, but "Total recall" also includes a host of sleaze. After all, this is the man who would lead "Basic Instinct." Which, a young and beautiful extremely Sharon Stone plays as woman of Schwarzenegger.
? "Predator" (1987): OK, I will admit that I choose it in part because my husband loves, and he has an uncanny talent for it on television at any time of day or night. (I also like heard shouting, "Get to the chopper!" in Arnold bad accent). A movie at the beginning of veteran action John McTiernan, this sci-fi thriller is a group of commandos who are caught in the trap in a jungle of Central America and hunted by an extraterrestrial Monster. Schwarzenegger, as forces special ass bad named Dutch, is sent to save them, but it must also fight against this deadly creature with camouflage capabilities. If anyone could do, it is Arnold to its powers.
