My Thoughts
I don’t know when I first watched True Lies, but as a fan of Arnold Schwarzenegger films, I imported the Region 1 DVD in May 1999 and liked the film. So, when it was announced for a new 4K Ultra HD release with two other James Cameron films, The Abyss and Aliens, I ordered all three. True Lies was the first to arrive. it remains a testament to the golden era of action films. Released in 1994, it stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as Harry Tasker, a seemingly ordinary family man who leads a double life as a top-secret agent. With great stunts, explosive set pieces, and a good blend of humour and action.
And I do love a Blu-ray case with a slip cover.
