Amazon.co.uk Review

This winning 1990 comedy stars Arnold Schwarzenegger in an initially self-deprecating role as a grizzled, big-city cop who goes undercover as a small-town kindergarten teacher to nab a killer. One of the best films of director Ivan Reitman (Dave), this comedy (with some thriller elements) went a long way to further soften and broaden Schwarzenegger's image after Reitman worked with him in the gentle Twins. But Kindergarten Cop is genuinely touching, the story of a hard man who visibly finds his true passion and soul by leaving behind the rot of urban crime. Penelope Ann Miller is a delight as the love interest, Pamela Reed is wonderful as Arnold's cop partner, old pro Carroll Baker is quite nasty as the villain's evil mother, and Linda Hunt--whose diminutive stature makes for quite a contrast with Schwarzenegger when they share scenes--is entertaining as a tough principal. Upon its release, some people assumed the title meant this is a good movie for little kids, but it isn't. --Tom Keogh

5.0 out of 5 stars LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT, 5 May 2005
Thoroughly enjoyed this one.Maybe not evryones cup of tea as maybe a bit too slushly especially if you don't like to see loads of kids in a film!
I like the split personality of this film with arnie doing a great job as an undercover cop posing as a kindergarten teacher to try and capture a drug dealer.
not too heavy on the action although enough to make it believable,the comic touches are well played also.
Not too be taken too seriously but all the better for it.
A great way to spend a rainy sunday afternoon...

4.0 out of 5 stars Who would have thought it, Arnie as a Kindergarten teacher!, 11 Jan 2004
By no1filmaddict (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
We are used to seeing Arnie in fast-action, violent films with lots of killing and blood, like 'Terminator' and 'Predator' where he hardly says anything apart from "I'll be back!". Therefore it is quite a suprise that here we see him playing a tough cop-turned-Kindergarten-teacher and you may not think that he would be much good in that type role, because i know i certainly did and i started watching it rather skeptically. However, i couldn't have been more wrong. Arnie plays the role amazingly and i couln't really imagine anyone else playing the giant school teacher. The kids faces on the film when he first walks in reflect how tall he really is, especially to them.

The story is basically about a tough cop who has to go undercover as a Kindergarten teacher to find the wife and son of an elusive criminal. Then he must persuade he to give evidence to convict her ex-husband and get him 'sent down' for a long long time.

Although Arnie is not the greatest actor in the world when he is not holding a machine gun or a bazuka he still manages to play this part really well and makes what is a slightly unbelievable storyline, believable.

There are other actors who, like Arnie usually appear in 'action' films (for example Sylvester Stallone) and unfortunately their attemps at comedy have not done so well, however Arnie is brilliant in the few comedys he has been in and they have been very succesful.

Well, another great film from Arnie and in places, quite funny, It's also a nice change to see him doing somthing a bit more gentle.

4.0 out of 5 stars a decent all round arnie film, 17 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This film is rather good, especially as all the children are stuned buy how big arnie is. there is a lot of humour such as when the is a fire drill arnie picks about 5 childen and tells everyone to run out, only to be graeted buy other classes quiet and neat. this film is worth a watch although there is not really enough violence for a arnie film.

This film is not superb, it's not hilarious but it is extremely cute. I don't actually like Arnie films, so I was sceptical when watching this, but was pleasantly surprised. Read more
