Anyway, I expect a Director's Cut BD...

For whatever reason I still do not own this movie. I must make a move soon.

I think I've never seen it.

Maybe I'll Netflix it.

COMMANDO is simply the greatest movie ever... I've owned copies on VHS to Laserdisc and now I can say the blu-ray is without question, the BEST presentation of this classic!!!

This is a pretty good start.

I posted Bennett's death as the greatest bad guy movie death ever in a thread awhile back.

Here is also the best review of Commando ever, that sums up my feelings exactly.

In short, I can wax poetic about the joy that is Commando forever. Good thread.

A great action movie.

Definitely among Arnold's best.

I agree Commando is a great film, but...

The Running Man > Commando

When will The Running Man get the Blu-Ray treatment it deserves?

I really enjoy this movie..... I think the transfer gets a bad rap too.....

It's readily available for cheap, so if you like the movie, it's a great buy.

PQ is stunning... why the bad rep? There's no dirt. The layer of grain is inherent to the way the movie was filmed (only 10 millions of dollars like budget).
Truly, exceptional PQ.

I'm just waiting for a BD re-release featuring a further remastering to get rid of the remaining flaws and the infamous Director's Cut, plus some extras.

COMMANDO is simply the most iconic AND funniest eighties movie in my book. John Matrix is legend.
