Kindergarten Cop (1990)

Also Known As: -
Year of first release: 1990
Director: Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters 1-2, Twins)
Actors: Arnold Schwarzenegger (The Terminator), Penelope Ann Miller (The Artist), Pamela Reed (Junior, Bean)
Country: USA
Genre: Comedy
Conditions of visioning: 02.03.2013, SD VOD, 32" TV, French dubbing, 4/3 image
Synopsis: A super-cop (Schwarzenegger) will become teacher of a class of 6-years old in order to make contact with the ex-wife (Miller) of a criminal he is after.
Review: A typical comedy shot in the 80's. It is funny that all Action stars go through the movie with children: Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson... Maybe it is Schwarzenegger who strated the trend! I hadn't seen the movie in years but still remembered it pretty well. Humor is OK and bad guys are bad. Nothing really profound.
It would be interestig to check what all the kids have become. I noticed Miko Hughes (as the gynecologist's son) who later on played in Code Mercury with Bruce Willis, and Odette Yustman (the little spanish-speaking girl) who became the star of Cloverfield.
Rating: 6 /10
