Review

"True Lies is one of my favorite projects. It was a long shoot, so everyone became very close. Everyone was awesome! James is a genius. He even sent me a birthday and Christmas gift... he's always great to my family and friends. Same with Arnold. Arnold has always given me great tips about fans and other things."

"Jamie Lee Curtis was like a mom, she used to invite me to her house in California. I slept over there and she had all these animals, she gave me my bed and she was like, this is where the animals sleep too, and she tucked me in bed at night with her whole house full of animals. I think I'm still a little starstruck."

"It was so much fun but it was also terrifying - my mother having to see her 12-year-old hanging 25 stories off a savings bank with Arnold Schwarzenegger!"

A rule of thumb in this house is if James Cameron made it, we'll we go see it. This was our introduction to Eliza. We like the way James Cameron has children/teens contribute to 'saving the adults'. Kickstarting the trend was the character of Newt in our fave film 'Aliens'. Next in line Edward Furlong aka John Connor aka 'troubled teen' number one. As soon as we saw Eliza aka Dana we knew 'troubled teen' number two had arrived.

Her reaction to her father's present was priceless (and true to life) but the theft and boyfriend on the motorbike told us that Dana was gutsy enough to help out if needed. On the off chance you haven't seen this film we highly recommend it (despite the mysoginstic 'performance' Jamie had to do for Arnie). It's face paced, packed with fun and action. Loads of fun. And, yes -there has been talk of True Lies 2 for years...but nothing concrete so far. Here's hoping it goes ahead with Dana playing a huge part in it :D
