What Happened to True Lies?

Believe it or not, James Cameron has only directed nine released narrative features in his titanic 40-year career in Hollywood. The self-proclaimed cinematic King of the World is the second-most lucrative filmmaker after the incomparable Steven Spielberg, with Cameron’s wildly entertaining movies grossing $8.7 billion globally. Still, two of his titles remain slightly overlooked compared to Aliens and the landmark Terminator and Avatar flicks. If you had to make a legitimate case for either, what would you say is Cameron’s most underrated movie: The Abyss or True Lies? Aside from Piranha 2: The Spawning that is.

As you chew on that sucker, it’s worth noting that True Lies is loosely adapted from the 1991 French spy farce La Totale, directed by Claude Zidi. It’s the only film in Cameron’s quiver to be remade from a preexisting movie. From Arnold Schwarzenegger’s near-fatal horse-riding mishap, and Jamie Lee Curtis’ death-defying stuntwork, to Cameron almost directing Spider-Man: The Movie instead, to the insane Harrier Jet finale, and much more, it’s time to pull the ice cube trays out of the freezer and find out What Happened to True Lies as the film celebrates its 30th anniversary.
