->''"It's hard to satirize a satire. That's what "[[Film/LoadedWeapon1 National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1]]" wants to do, but the target proves elusive. This is a would-be comedy that's not as funny (nor as satirical) as the [[Film/LethalWeapon movies that inspired it.]] If you look back at the successful laffaminit send-ups, from "Film/{{Airplane}}" through "Film/TopSecret" to "Film/TheNakedGun," you'll see that their targets are movies that take themselves fairly seriously. Here the target is already in on the joke."''

->''"...[[Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger Schwarzenegger]] movies already verge on self-parody. So a Schwarzenegger spoof seems redundant. The novelty of Schwarzenegger parodying his tough-guy image is undermined by the fact that Schwarzenegger spoofs his tough-guy image in pretty much every movie he makes."''
