My Thoughts:
OK. I have to say... I liked this one too. It is basically the same story. I would say I like them both about the same amount. The original is stronger in some areas where this remake is stronger in other areas. I think the original did better with conveying the storyline. But I think the remake just had better effects... and was more graphic which I liked. So when all is said and done... I am thrilled I have both of them in my collection now.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

Kindergarten Cop, a review by DJ Doena


Kindergarten Cop



Arnold Schwarzenegger    ...    Detective John Kimble
Penelope Ann Miller   ...    Joyce Palmieri / Rachel Crisp
Pamela Reed   ...    Detective Phoebe O'Hara
Linda Hunt   ...    Miss Schlowski
Richard Tyson   ...    Cullen Crisp, Sr.
Carroll Baker   ...    Eleanor Crisp
Joseph Cousins    ...    Dominic Palmieri / Cullen Crisp, Jr.
Christian Cousins   ...    Dominic Palmieri / Cullen Crisp, Jr.

Detective John Kimble Has been trying to arrest the drug gangster Crisp for quite some time now. Now he gets the chance, he has just to find his ex-wife, who went into hiding with their son. But for this he has to work undercover in a kindergarten.

My opinion:
My favourite comedy of Arnie's alongside with "True Lies". Everytime I watch this I find it amusing how he tries to get control over this little horde. That aside I think it's a good idea to use twins as a single character. This way the kids don't overwork themselves and the audience can't tell the difference.

Faith is back! :)
She has some great scenes with Spike. Also this is the start of Nathan Fillion's appearances as a villain.
