Arnold Schwarzenegger: 5 Awesome Performances & 5 That Sucked

And 5 That Sucked...

5. Det. John Kimble - Kindergarten Cop (1990)

For those of you who wonder why Arnie always goes for the standard action fare, Kindergarten Cop is your answer. Schwarzenegger is awesome, when he€™s in the right role, performing the right script and under the supervision of the right director. Kindergarten Cop, however, inserts him awkwardly into a role that clearly exists far outside of his comfort zone for no more valid a reason than the pursuit of a funny gimmick. For that reason, he can€™t help but fail to hit the mark. But can you blame poor Arnold? The idea was ill-conceived all around, and although it does certainly present a moment or two of note €“ €œWho is your daddy, and what does he do?€ €“ both the film, and Schwarzenegger himself fail to ever really get going.
