Now, it should be said that Arnold Schwarzenegger's small screen debut has one of the better performances of his long career, but my-oh-my does this thing drag and groan under the weight of itself.

Following a veteran CIA agent who learns his daughter (an admittedly scene-stealing Monica Barbaro, fresh off her breakout role in Top Gun: Maverick) is also a secret agent, FUBAR's only joke about strained families and Arnie being an infamous action man simply can't withstand its monumental eight-hour runtime.

It has some genuine bright spots, particularly early-on, but by the time it reaches its tired conclusion you probably won't care about its clichéd espionage set-up and Arnie (though, granted, it is nice to see him enjoying himself) mocking his famous action hero persona. Once again: Should've been a movie!
