• He Really Can Act: Many critics thought this way about Arnold Schwarzenegger in this film.
• Jerkass Woobie: Barely, but Crisp towards the end could be considered this. He seriously loves his son and the look on his face shows authentic joy when he confronts him and really sadness when his son doesn't recognize him. Yeah, he takes him as an hostage, but he could have just bluffed.
• Narm Charm: Arnold's Big "Shut Up!" during his first day at school.
• Nightmare Fuel: The big fire and shootout climax is pretty damn intense.
• What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: Tough guy Arnold Schwarzenegger finds himself out of his depth when he has to deal with a class of adorable children: a heartwarming family comedy, right? Well, not really. Between the crackhouse shoot-out that introduces Kimble in all his Badass glory, to an abusive father getting punched by the hero, to the blue-lipped junkie cold on the slab after being spiked by the villain, to Kimble dreaming of Crisp shooting him, to O'Hara being caught having noisy sex with her fiancé, to Crisp holding his own five year old son hostage, to Crisp getting shot three times in the chest, to Kimble bleeding out in the corner of a bathroom as Eleanor Crisp demands her grandson, the film is definitely not for children.
