Movie Review
Assuming most of vou have heard
Clint Eastwood's famous "Go ahead,
"malfP mv Hau" arA DnmKn'o T'm

ing to get you, Murdock," I can tell you
i that Schwarzenegger had about 15
such lines in "Commando." It is almost
I as if the movie parodies the Rambo and
iChuck Norris "one-man-against-the-world"
movies.
1 The film is incredibly action packed,
Seeping your eyes transfixed most of
jthe time.
J Schwarzenegger comes across as a
jComic book character, moving from
(action-packed scene to action-packed
pne, with ludicrous lines that almost
jstop the action as if they came from a
pmic book script bubble. His charac
ter had little depth, but somewhat
more than the role he played in "The
Jerminator."
I I will describe the plot briefly,
fecause it is not that hard to figure
(". and because it is not central to
fur enjoyment of this film.
1 Schwarzenegger plays Col. Matrix, a
s wired covert operations officer whose
daughter is kidnapped and held ran
Her abductor, a former dictator,
J'anta Matrix to assassinate his South
fmerican country's new democrats-elected
president so he can regain
jower.
I Matrix, using a clever bit of decep
tion at the airport, manages to "buy" 1 1
-ours in which he can rescue his
aughter. This becomes his primary
inlin the movie.
I. The smartest move the writer and
"IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME TO HAVE
MY CONTACT LENSES FITTED PROPERLY.
Like most people, I'm on the go alot. I tried contact lenses a
few years ago and was never really happy. Wearing contacts
helped my vision but they became a hassle because of the mild
discomfort and occasional fuzzy vision.
I asked several of my friends who wear contacts to recom
mend a specialist, and most of them recommended Dr. Powell
at the International Contact Lens Clinic
I went to their clinic for a no charge consultation to talk about
new contact lenses. Their office offers complete contact lens services
and complete optical services including:
thorough examination, individual fitting, and close supervision
curbside parking, convenient central Lincoln location
appointments available evenings, lunch hours, and Saturdays
eight weqjc trial program for
close observation of comfort and eye health
lens strength or fitting modification if indicated
no charge for damaged lenses
spare glasses, sunglasses and special solutions for sensitive eyes
a continuing care program future upgrading of contact
lenses as scientific progress is made.
I decided to have them fit my eyes and I was very comfortable with
their professional approach, their fees, and their thoroughness.
Everyone in their office helped me become a successful wearer. I
consider their office outstanding, and I recommend them to all my
fripnds.
