Un flic à la maternelle

I reckon Arnie would make the best teacher. For starters, he could teach PE, and Austrian, and politics, and awesome, among other things. Schoolyard bullying and vandalism would be a thing of the past, and if any of the students were having domestic troubles at home, Arnie would find out and then BAM! Problem solved, just like in 'Kindergarten Cop'.

Arnie plays John Kimble, a cop who has spent years chasing a criminal by the name of Cullen Crisp. When he finally gets Crisp, he now has to find all the money Crisp that stole. It seems as though Crisp's e-wife took it and fled to a small town with their son, and changed their names in the process. To find them, Arnie must pose as a kindergarten teacher, and hilarity ensues.

'Kindergarten Cop' may not be as heavy on the action as some of Arnie's other movies from the time (80s / early 90s), but on the other hand, it is very funny. It delivers some classic lines from not only Arnie, but also his disciples of awesome (students, whatever you wish to call them). 'Kindergarten Cop' proves that Arnie is family-friendly, as well as awesome. Bravo!

8/10 - Check it out. You should like it, and if you don't, I'm sure Arnie will forgive you.

This film seems to be looked down upon but I think it's main "flaw" - Arnold Schwarzenegger not doing great in a comedy - is actually its main advantage. His physique and personality simply stick out so much in this setting and it's hilarious.

Arnie plays a bad ass cop who disguises himself as a kindergarten teacher in order to track down the ex-wife of a drug sleazeball to finally lock him up.

Arnie in a comedy. Well, it worked in Twins so why not do it again? Actually this time around he fares very well, balancing quite nicely his tough guy side (which we all love) and also his comedic side. His interaction with the children are hilarious and somewhat touching at times. Supporting cast do a nice job, particularly Reed as Arnie's partner and Hunt as his kindergarten supervisor.

Many critics found the level of violence to be a little excessive considering it's listed as mainly a comedy, but I don't agree. Sure, there's some violence near the end, but it's relatively toned down. I'd say this is good family fun.

Not sure why this movie is not rated more highly. I have loved this movie since its release. Sure, it's cheesy, but it's so hilarious and entertaining. Ah-nold is in classic comedy form and Pamela Reed is truly the icing on the cake. Delightful movie all the way around.

Action, Comedy, Crime + Family at its best. Arnold was amazing. Arnold self-centered this movie with his fabulous screen time and stunning action - The way Salman Khan centers his whole movie in Bollywood, difference here is better acting and more sense. It's very underrated. I never expected it to turn out this great. The kids are amazing, the comedy is consistent. The direction and cinematography is exceptional. Since it's 1990, picture quality takes a step down, but it didn't matter when we start concentrating on the movie with so much fun. I enjoyed it. I added the Twins in the watch list too after watching this.
