Ep 313: "True Lies" Revisited
Tuesday, 20 January, 2026
Jamie Lee Curtis shared top billing with Ahhhnold in 1994's mega hit, True Lies. Made for a then record-breaking budget for over $100 million, the movie featured Schwarzenegger and Curtis outrunning explosions, machine gunfire, and Tia Carrere. But now, over thirty years later, was it money well spent? Is 6-foot-2 Arnold the best choice for an under-the-radar spy? And where's the line between women in peril and just plain misogyny? The Old Roommates hitch a helicopter ride to give James Cameron's action-packed yarn a revisit ... through their middle-aged lens. Jump in a harrier jet and join them!
