That's right, "Predator"! A classic Schwarzenegger-movie from 1987!Seriously, this movie has it all. Funny one-liners, great action (too much to link to), memorable scenes, it's oozing with macho-bullshit and it has a bad-guy who is cool and memorable .
It's cast consists of two U.S. Governors (Arnold "The Governator" Schwarzenegger and Jesse "The Governing Body" Ventura), three other muscle-men (Carl Weathers, Bill Duke and Sonny Landham, which means that the total muscle-mass in this movie exceeds the weight of average family-sedan), two funny-men (Richard Chavez and Shane Black), great soundtrack including the original score by Alan Silvestri as well as the use of "Long Tall Sally" by Little Richard.
Oh, there is one woman in the cast. Half the time she's being dragged through the jungle with her hands tied, the other half she's being scared.
Everything in this movie has been refined to perfection. Sure, some might complain about the acting, or the details in the script, or some other artsy things like that. But who cares? We are talking about awesomeness here, and awesomeness transcends trivialities like that.
By definition, any man who considers himself to be a manly man, must place this movie in his personal top 10 list. And anyone who considers himself to be a normal man, needs to place this movie in top 20.
No, I have never met a woman who likes this movie.
