Arnie obviously took a break from acting to focus on governing the small state of California and has had a lackluster return since. The Expendables films are C+ at best and he plays a small role in them. The Last Stand was good for what it was but made nearly nothing at the box office. I have yet to see Escape Plan but I did see Sabotage and it was terrible. But now he's back in full Arnie mode, headlining two vastly different films.
Arnold was king in the late 80's and 90's. My personal favorites being The Terminator films and the original Predator.
He very rarely has to act out of his normal character, similar to John Wayne or Will Smith. Yeah I said it. Actors do this sometimes because they're very bankable this way. Arnie was a huge action star, Will Smith was/ kinda still is one of the most charismatic actors of his generation, and John Wayne practically saved the movie industry with his films.
To see Arnold pushing his limits in the film Maggie, says something. Arnold could very well be pulling a Matthew McConaughey turn around.
Or we could all be disappointed by Terminator and not care about his performance in Maggie.
Honestly, I love Arnold and I hope we get to see more of him soon!
