They're showing it at Cineworld next Monday as part of their Action Season.

But even betterer, they're showing the greatest film ever on the 29th. I'm seriously considering go, I've seen it at least 10 times, but never on the big screen, Commando.

I'd say Predator was better but I'll re-watch Commando before deciding.

Predator is a solid gold classic (and also being shown on the big screen as part of the Cineword Action Season).

But for totally mindless, infinity quotable 80's cheese it's Commando all the way, the body count is massive, even if it's the same five guys dying all the time, just with different moustaches.

I've got it on DVD, but there's the Directors Cut on Disney Plus (not that I can tell the difference and I've watched it ALOT).

I have it on DVD, I've even got the soundtrack on vinyl. I especially enjoy the bit where the guy off Blue Peter gets stung by the log beast thing. It's probably the 2nd greatest film of all time... with Dude Where's My Car a close 3rd.

Not on either Netflix or Prime, I'll watch it when it's available.
