More About This Product

Overview

Arnold Schwarzenegger sheds his action image in Ivan Reitman's police comedy Kindergarten Cop, where he plays an undercover cop teaching a class of hyperactive six-year-olds. As the film begins, John Kimble Schwarzenegger and his partner Phoebe O'Hara Pamela Reed are in pursuit of notorious drug dealer Cullen Crisp Richard Tyson and his scabrous mother Eleanor Carroll Baker. John learns Cullen is searching for his ex-wife and his little boy, and Kimble plans to nail them when they find the former wife, who is believed to have $3 million of Cullen's drug profits. John and Phoebe follow the trail to Astoria, Oregon, where they believe Cullen's son is attending kindergarten. Although the child and his mother have changed names, John hopes they can pick up some clues. By coincidence, Phoebe used to be a schoolteacher and the school board permits her teach the kindergarten class, but Phoebe gets food poisoning and John is forced to teach the six-year-old whippersnappers himself. Along with lighthearted gags with the kids and the pursuit of the drug dealers, John has time for a little romance when he falls in love with one of the teachers Penelope Ann Miller, who ends up surprising him with more than love.

Editorial Reviews

All Movie Guide - Karl Williams
Comic director Ivan Reitman has a field day with this infectious comedy that only goes awry in an alarmingly violent finale that nearly derails all of the fun that's preceded it. Although he has frequently attempted comic roles with limited success, star Arnold Schwarzenegger is a hit here, perhaps because he's lampooning rather than playing against his own muscle-bound, tough guy persona. He's the straight man, allowing the toddlers to take center stage, a generous and unusual creative decision that is mined repeatedly for big laughs. Easily the best scenes in the film feature the star attempting to remain patient with a classroom full of school children, an irresistible idea and the high-concept engine driving the film, which Reitman wisely never forgets. It's only in a climax featuring gunplay and five-year-olds in serious jeopardy that the film strays badly off key, momentarily wrecking the fragile suspension of disbelief that has allowed the Terminator to be seen teaching kids their ABC's. For the majority of its running time, however, Kindergarten Cop (1990) is hilarious and good-natured, an enjoyable frolic that casts an action star with limited artistic range in a creatively different light.

    Good movie to watch over and over, but NOT for kids!

    Ok, the movie is good for people 16+, but come on.. this movie is NOT a great family movie! If you care less that your kids watch momma make a profit off of selling drugs and a principal who condones kicking the hell out of a father, then you CANT complain when your own kids have the idea that it's ok to do the same. A word of advise, watch it yourself, not with your kids.

    hysterical!

    This movie is one of the funniest kid movies out there. While there is a serious side and plot, there are also some of the funniest scenes you will ever see that take place in the classroom. Putting kids in a room with Arnold is just funny in itself. You should definitely see this movie!

    word of caution

    I give this movie three stars with a certain degree of hesitation. Although the story is heartwarming and ultimately redeeming, those who chose to watch this film should be aware that the levels of anger displayed by Arnold Schwartzenegger are betimes frightening to an adult, let alone a child for whom this movie is intended. I criticize those who casually dub Shwarzenegger a ''gentle giant'', the name so approriately describing such sweet heavyweights as Andre the Giant and Louie Anderson. I ask that such callous people observe Arnold's mad grimacing and inane German-babble. Then they will think twice. But Linda Hunt is so great - what a cute and talented wee one she is!

    Great family movie!!

    As a father of 3 and legal guardian of a Brazilian youth soccer team I am constantly on the lookout for good family films. This film has everything you need! Arnold Schwartznegger shows his true character (gentle giant) in this showstopper. Everything from quirky jokes to ferret attacks make this movie one to own. It is also educational to children who may have a problem with authority and are ''loaded''.
