True Lies is a 1994 American action comedy film written and directed by James Cameron. It stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as Harry Tasker, a U.S. government agent, who struggles to balance his double life as a spy with his familial duties, and Jamie Lee Curtis as his unknowing wife. Tom Arnold, Bill Paxton, Art Malik, Tia Carrere, Eliza Dushku, and Charlton Heston star in supporting roles. The screenplay is based on the 1991 French comedy film La Totale!.<ref name="EGM61">Template:Cite magazine</ref>
The film was the first Lightstorm Entertainment project to be distributed under Cameron's multimillion-dollar production deal with 20th Century Fox, as well as the first major production for the visual effects company Digital Domain, which was co-founded by Cameron. It was also the first film to cost $100 million.
True Lies received mostly positive reviews from critics, and ultimately grossed $378 million worldwide at the box office, becoming the third-highest-grossing film of 1994.<ref name="TVReboot">Template:Cite magazine</ref> For her performance, Curtis won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy and the Saturn Award for Best Actress, while Cameron won the Saturn Award for Best Director. It was also nominated at the Academy Awards and BAFTAs in the Best Visual Effects category, and also for seven Saturn Awards. A streaming television series adaptation premiered in 2023.
A 2004 ruling by the Court of Appeal of Paris found that True Lies and La Totale! were plagiarized from an unproduced 1981 screenplay, Émilie, by Lucien Lambert.<ref name="telestar" /><ref name="emile" />
PlotEdit
To his wife Helen and his daughter Dana, Harry Tasker is a mild-mannered computer hardware salesman often away on business trips, but he is actually a secret agent for Omega Sector, a top-secret U.S. counterterrorism agency. Harry, along with his teammates Albert "Gib" Gibson and Faisil, infiltrates a party in Switzerland hosted by billionaire Jamal Khaled. At the party, Harry meets Juno Skinner, who turns out to not only be Khaled's art dealer, but someone paid by "Crimson Jihad", a terrorist organization led by Salim Abu Aziz. Undercover as a potential buyer, Harry visits her, leading the terrorists to attempt to kill him. Harry fights them off but loses Aziz in a pursuit. As a result, Harry misses the birthday party that Helen and Dana planned for him.
The next day, Harry goes to Helen's office to reconcile with her, but instead overhears her secretly arranging to meet someone called Simon. Suspecting Helen is having an affair, Harry uses Omega Sector resources to learn that Simon is a used car salesman, who pretends to be a spy to seduce women. In disguise, Harry and other Omega agents arrest Helen and Simon. After terrifying Simon into keeping away from Helen, Harry and Gib interrogate her using a voice masking device in a secret facility. They learn she is suffering a midlife crisis and is desperately seeking adventure. Harry arranges for Helen to participate in a staged spy mission, where she is to seduce a mysterious figure (who is actually Harry) and plant a bug in his hotel room.
However, Aziz's men burst in, kidnap the couple and take them to an island in the Florida Keys, where Helen finally learns Harry's double life. While in captivity, Harry learns Crimson Jihad paid Juno to help the group smuggle four MIRV nuclear warheads by hiding them in antique statues. Aziz demands that the U.S. remove their forces from the Persian Gulf or he will weekly detonate a warhead in a major U.S. city. He will also detonate one warhead on the uninhabited island to demonstrate Crimson Jihad's resolve. Before being tortured with Helen, Harry is administered a truth serum and reveals details of his secret occupation to her. They escape and learn that one warhead is set to explode in 90 minutes while the others are loaded onto vehicles to be taken into the U.S. via the Overseas Highway, thus bypassing U.S. Customs. In the ensuing melee, Harry and Helen kill many of the terrorists, while Aziz gets away with one of the warheads on a helicopter.
Helen is caught by Juno and taken in a limousine following the convoy. Gib and other Omega agents pick up Harry. They use two Marine Harrier jump jets to intercept the convoy by destroying part of the Seven Mile Bridge. Harry rescues Helen from the limo before it falls off the highway, killing Juno. The warhead left on the island detonates without killing anyone.
Harry discovers that Aziz and his men are holding Dana hostage in a Miami skyscraper and are threatening to detonate their last warhead. Harry commandeers one of the jets to rescue her. Faisil gets into the building by posing as a news cameraman. Dana steals the missile control key and flees to the roof, while Faisil kills several of Aziz's men. Aziz pursues Dana onto a tower crane, and then Harry arrives. Harry rescues Dana, and after a struggle with Aziz, he has him ensnared on the end of one of the plane's missiles, which Harry fires at a terrorist helicopter, killing Aziz and the remnants of Crimson Jihad. Harry, Helen and Dana are safely reunited.
A year later, Harry and Helen are working together as Omega agents. While on a mission at a formal party, they encounter Simon, working as a waiter and pretending to be a spy. Simon runs away in fear after they reveal themselves and threaten to kill him to avoid jeopardizing their covers. Harry and Helen dance the tango, while Gib pleads for them to take their work seriously.

Critical receptionEdit
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 70% based on 57 reviews, and an average score of 6.60/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "If it doesn't reach the heights of director James Cameron's and star Arnold Schwarzenegger's previous collaborations, True Lies still packs enough action and humor into its sometimes absurd plot to entertain".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 63 out of 100 based on reviews from 17 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale.<ref name="CinemaScore">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave the film three stars out of four, writing, "It's stuff like that we go to Arnold Schwarzenegger movies for, and True Lies has a lot of it: laugh-out-loud moments when the violence is so cartoonish we don't take it seriously, and yet are amazed at its inventiveness and audacity." He wrote that he found the plot "perfunctory", but praised the film's stunts and special effects.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
The film received criticism for its portrayal of Middle Easterners and its treatment of female characters.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> John Simon of the National Review criticized the plot line of the hero character (Schwarzenegger) using his agency's resources to stalk and frighten his wife as cruel and misogynistic.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In a negative review, Kenneth Turan of the Los Angeles Times wrote:
Some Arabs and Muslims perceived the film as conveying strong anti-Arab or anti-Muslim prejudice,<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref> with some Arab-American advocacy groups calling for its banning in Arab countries.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref>
In a 2022 retrospective review, Polish writer Jacek Szafranowicz called the film "a masterpiece of cinematic fun", noting that the collaboration between the director and its main star "deserves a golden medal".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Commenting on the state of blockbuster films, Scott Tobias of The Guardian and The A.V. Club wrote, "True Lies is the strange case of a film that's alternately retrograde, forward-looking, and thoroughly of its time. For better or worse, it's a marker of how the Hollywood action blockbuster had advanced in 1994, as well as a commentary (intended or not) on the troubled state of American masculinity, marital relationships, and lingering racial attitudes."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Awards and nominationsEdit
CensorshipEdit
On October 1, 1994, True Lies was banned from Indonesian movie theaters due to the film spawning controversy that focused on Muslim leaders insulting Islam and portraying themselves as religious extremists. According to the Council of Muslim Scholars, it led people to hate Arab terrorists defending the interests of some Islamic nations, but justified American terrorism. Earlier that year, officials had already banned Schindler's List from the country because it contained too much violence and nudity.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Plagiarism lawsuitEdit
True Lies and its source material La Totale! were the subject of a 2000 plagiarism lawsuit launched by French screenwriter Lucien Lambert.<ref name="telestar" /><ref name="emile" /> Lambert sued Cameron and La Totale! writer-director Claude Zidi, claiming he had knowingly plagiarized from his unproduced 1981 screenplay called Émilie, about a con artist who poses as a spy in order to seduce a woman.<ref name="telestar" /><ref name="emile" />
In 2001, the court ruled against Lambert, which he appealed.<ref name="telestar" /><ref name="emile" /> In June 2004, the Court of Appeal of Paris ruled in favor of Lambert, based on new evidence.<ref name="telestar" /><ref name="emile" /> Claude Zidi was ordered to pay Lambert US$15 million (his total profit percentage for the box office receipts of True Lies).<ref name="telestar" /><ref name="emile" /> Cameron was not held liable for damages, as the Court ruled he had purchased the film rights to La Totale! in good faith.<ref name="telestar" /><ref name="emile" />

Cancelled sequelEdit
In April 1997, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Tom Arnold met with Cameron and discussed the possibility of an eventual True Lies sequel, which would also bring back Curtis in her role. At the time, Cameron was busy working on Titanic.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref name=Eyes>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Following the release of Titanic in late 1997, Cameron was planning to begin work on a True Lies sequel early the following year. Schwarzenegger and Arnold were expected to reprise their roles.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Cameron conducted a search for a writer to work on True Lies 2. In August 1999, Cameron and 20th Century Fox were negotiating to have Jeff Eastin write the script under Cameron's supervision.<ref name=Eyes/> At the time, the film was being planned for a mid-2001 release, with Cameron expected to direct it.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> By the end of 1999, there was the possibility that filming would begin in the third quarter of 2000.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> However, development of the script was ongoing as of June 2000. Cameron planned to produce True Lies 2 with Fox, but was undecided at that time on whether he would also direct it, as he wanted to wait until the script was complete.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Eastin worked with Cameron on the project for approximately a year and a half,<ref name=Collider>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and Schwarzenegger and Arnold liked Eastin's script.<ref name=Lussier>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
By March 2001, the script had been completed, and Curtis was confirmed to reprise her role alongside Schwarzenegger and Arnold.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Following the September 11 attacks, Schwarzenegger said in January 2002, "We'll shoot it next year. We have a good script. There does need to be some changes because it deals with some terrorist act of some sort. But it's pretty much done."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Later in 2002, Cameron said the film would not be made following the September 11 attacks: "Terrorism is no longer something to take as lightly as we did in the first one. I just can't see it happening given the current world climate."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
In June 2003, Schwarzenegger said that after the attacks, "Cameron was worried because there's an airplane scene – a terrific airplane scene – that didn't have anything to do with the terrorism that we had in 9/11, but it was a great fight scene inside the plane while the plane goes down and this kind of thing. It was a very important moment in the movie, and he felt like he can't do that and therefore has to rewrite it ... These things take a long time."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The following month, Curtis said the film would never be made due to the September 11 attacks: "Terrorists aren't funny anymore. They never were, but, it was distant enough from our psyche that we could make it funny. It'll never be funny again. I just think that that is over, that kind of humor is over."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Eastin cited Schwarzenegger's 2003 election as California governor as another reason that True Lies 2 did not get made.<ref name=Collider/> However, Arnold remained optimistic that the film would be made.Template:Efn
In 2005, Arnold said he had met with Cameron, Curtis, Paxton, and Dushku to discuss True Lies 2. Arnold said the project would include the return of Schwarzenegger and that filming would begin once his role as California governor was concluded.<ref name=Davidson>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Cameron said in 2009 that there were no plans to make the film,<ref name=Vulture>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref name="AFTL2">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and Curtis, in 2019, reiterated her previous comments: "I don't think we could ever do another True Lies after 9/11."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Art Malik concurred, saying during the time of True Lies' filming, "there was an element of fanaticism brewing and anti-West feeling going on. But I don't think any of us took any of it as seriously as we had to after 9/11. I think one of the reasons for that is probably the reason True Lies 2 was never made.”<ref name=":0" />
In the 2005 film The Kid & I, Tom Arnold plays a fictional character based on himself. In that film, the character had starred in True Lies and is pursued by a fan and teams up with Henry Winkler and Linda Hamilton to make a sequel; Schwarzenegger and Curtis cameo as themselves.
