Arguably one of Arnold Schwarzenegger's most iconic roles as US Colonel John Matrix in "Commando" paved the way for modern action flicks. After his ex-platoon is mysteriously murdered by unknown mercenaries, Matrix discovers his young daughter has been taken hostage and he has become the next target of the plot. Full of cutting humor, fire and fighting, and plenty of action "Commando" was rightfully one of the highest-grossing movies of its time.
