Last Action Hero

Last Action Hero is a 1993 American comic fantasy-action film directed and produced by John McTiernan. It is a satire of the action genre and associated clichés, containing several parodies of action films in the form of films within the film.

The film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as Jack Slater, a fictional Los Angeles police detective. Slater is a fictional character even within the film, the hero of the Jack Slater series of action films. Austin O'Brien co-stars as a boy who is magically transported into a parallel universe by a magical movie ticket, one inhabited by Slater and the other characters in the Slater film series. Schwarzenegger also served as the film's executive producer and plays himself as the actor portraying Jack Slater, and Charles Dance plays an assassin who escapes from the Slater world into the real world. Last Action Hero was a box office disappointment during its initial theatrical release. The film also features Art Carney's last appearance in a motion picture.

    Last Action Hero is a series of action video games based on the film of the same name. Versions were released for the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, Game Boy, Sega Game Gear, Amiga and MS-DOS. Versions for the Sega Master System and Sega CD were also announced, but never released.

    A separate version was released on the Commodore Amiga and was developed by The Dome Software Developments. The MS-DOS version was developed by Psygnosis and offers full motion video cut scenes from the actual motion picture; the never-released Sega CD version was planned to include this feature as well.

    Gameplay

    Unlike many such adaptations, the game closely follows the plot and scenery of the film. The game, like the movie, was not received with much enthusiasm from the public.

    Taking the form of a side-scrolling beat-em-up, in the SNES and Genesis version players have a strict time limit to defeat each level of the game. Every version of the game has the climatic showdown with Mr. Benedict (the movie's primary villain), except for the NES, Game Boy, and Game Gear versions. There are two car chase stages: one in Jack Slater's "movie" world and another in Danny Madigan's "real" world. The NES and Amiga versions however do not feature any car levels.

    Do Something

    by: Last Action Hero

    The time is right to telling you the truth!
    You may run into a great deal of frustration
    I don't wanna see the future through the barrel of a gun
    I don't wanna concept that promotes physical violence
    There's pollution on my breath
    There's anchor at my wrist
    Wrapped to commercially
    Public welfare turned into
    An advertisement
    Of the television's program
    Give me the lighter
    Give me some oily rags (to wake you from your sleep!)
    Sometimes life offers you the options that you don't want to choose
    Do something that you've never done!
    (Do something that you've never done!
