American comedy in which tough L.A. cop John Kimble (Arnold Schwarzenegger) goes undercover as a kindergarten teacher while on the trail of a psychopath. He soon discovers that controlling a class of 23 small children may be his toughest assignment yet, but gradually earns the respect both of his pupils and his attractive female colleague, Joyce (Penelope Ann Miller).

I simply like Arnold, and I don't care if he plays in an action movie or in a film that is more comedic. "Kindergarten Cop" was already enjoyable to me as a child, and I can only say that I still like it after all these years, even though I am no longer a child by age. There are still scenes that are entertaining and that captivate me.

The words of a classic: "He has no talent!!!" Unfortunately, Arnie needed several experimental comedy films to find this out. What's the point if Kindergarten Cop is one of the better ones, when a) it's not funny, b) it's so stupid that it's terrible? Arnie is an incredibly wooden actor and, in contrast to the children, this fact stands out very clearly. The screenplay doesn't save it, so hopefully the craftsman Reitman can avert total embarrassment...

I have a weakness for this comedy starring Arnold. The beginning in L.A. is excellent and the first half in the kindergarten is also fine. Toward the end the story starts to get boring in places, but still bearable. But the main thing is that Arnold Schwarzenegger is the only actor who didn’t embarrass himself terribly in this “strongman and kids" sub-genre.
