I like plays full of lies. For me, this kind of film reflects the unknowability of human nature. I also like Schwarzenegger's description of spies: on the one hand, he is an ordinary family member; On the other hand, he is an incredible agent; More importantly, he is a superstar, which means people expect more from him.

I don't know what magical elements make me very excited when I watch this movie. It was like this at first, but it is still like this after a few years. I didn't think the plot was old-fashioned, the performance was exaggerated, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and even the name was cool enough-deceptive, but it was true.
