Commando
1985
Arius: Your father appears to be cooperating. You will be back with him soon. Won't that be nice? Jenny: Not as nearly as nice as watching him smash your face in.
(Matrix has thrown a pipe through Bennett) Matrix: Let off some steam, Bennett.
Sully: Here's twenty dollars to get some drinks in Val Verde. It'll give us all a little more time with your daughter. Henriques: Heh. Matrix: You're a funny man, Sully, I like you. That's why I'm going to kill you last.
Matrix: Remember, Sully, when I promised to kill you last? Sully: That's right, Matrix. You did. Matrix: I lied.
Matrix: Where is she, Sully? Sully: Kiss my ass! Matrix: I can't hear you! Sully: I'll say it a little louder then, get fucked! Matrix: Listen, loyalty is very touching. But it is not the most important thing in your life right now. But what is important is gravity! (Matrix holds Sully over a cliff by his left leg) Matrix: I have to remind you, Sully, this is my weak arm. Sully: You can't kill me, Matrix. You need me to find your daughter. Matrix: Where is she? Sully: I don't know. But Cooke knows. I'll take you to where I am supposed to meet him. Matrix: But you won't. Sully: Why not? Matrix: (holds Cooke's motel key to Sully's face) Because I already know. Matrix: Remember, Sully, when I promised to kill you last? Sully: That's right, Matrix, you did! Matrix: I lied. (Matrix drops Sully off the cliff)
Cindy: Can you tell me what this is all about? Matrix: Yeah! A guy I trusted for years wants me dead. Cindy: That's understandable - I've only known you for five minutes and I want you dead, too.
Cooke: You scared motherfucker? Well you should be because this green beret is going to kick your big ass. Matrix: I eat green berets for breakfast. And right now I'm very hungry. Cindy: I can't believe this macho bullshit.
Matrix: How much are they paying you for this, Bennett? Bennett: They offered me a hundred grand. You want to know something? When I found out I could get my hands on you, I said I'd do it for nothing. Matrix: I'll be back, Bennett. Bennett: John... I'll be waiting, John.
Matrix: Don't break radio silence until they see me. Cindy: How will I know? Matrix: Because all fucking hell is going to break loose.
Matrix: (after killing a man in the plane) Don't disturb my friend, he's dead tired.
Soldier: Slitting a little girl's throat is like cutting warm butter. Bennett: Put the knife away and shut your mouth.
Gen Kirby: Keep on the airwaves and let me know if you hear anything unusual. Soldier: I'll keep at it. What are you expecting? Gen Kirby: World War Three.
Biggs: Attention all units, emergency on theater level, suspect six foot two, brown hair. He is one gigantic motherfucker.
(Cooke aims a gun at Matrix) Cooke: Fuck you, asshole! (Cooke squeezes the trigger, but the gun clicks empty) Matrix: Fuck *you*, asshole.
Cindy: What happened to Sully? Matrix: I let him go.
Cindy: These guys eat too much red meat.
Bennett: John, I'm not going to shoot you between the eyes. I'm going to shoot you between the balls.
(Plane will not start) Matrix: Come on, you piece of shit. Fly or die. (Plane starts up) Matrix: Works every time.
Gen Kirby: Leave anything for us? Matrix: Just bodies.
Cooke: Where's Sully? Cindy: In the shower. Cooke: Who are you? Cindy: Room service.
(Cindy uses a rocket launcher) Matrix: Where did you learn how to do that? Cindy: I read the instructions.
Bennett: I really love listening to your little pissant soldiers trying to talk tough. They make me laugh. If Matrix was here, he'd laugh too.
Arius: Mr Bennett, my soldiers are patriots. Bennett: Your soldiers are nothing. Matrix and I can kill every one of them (click) in the blink of an eye. Remember that. Arius: Are you trying to... frighten me? Bennett: I don't have to try. When Matrix finishes the job, he'll be back for his daughter. Now whether she's alive or dead doesn't matter. Then he'll be after you. Now the only thing between Matrix and you, is me. Arius: It is you that is afraid, Mr Bennett. YOU are afraid of Matrix.
Bennett: Of course. I'm smart. But I have an edge; I have his daughter.
Matrix: We'll take Cooke's car. He won't be needing it.
Cindy: You don't even have a car. (Matrix pushes Sully's overturned car back upright) Matrix: Now I do.
Cindy: You steal my car, you rip the seat out, you kidnap me, you ask me to help you find your daughter which I very kindly do, and then you get me involved in a shoot out where people are dying and there's blood spurting all over the place, and then I watch you rip a phone booth out of a wall, swing from the ceiling like Tarzan, and then there's a cop that's going to shoot you and I save you and they start chasing me. Are you going to tell me what's going on or what? Matrix: No.
Stewardess: Interior luggage? Matrix: (pointing to Henriques) Just him. Henriques: (to Matrix) Open your mouth again and I'll nail it shut.
Matrix: A guy I trusted for years wants me dead. Cindy: I've only known you five minutes and I want you dead, too.
Matrix: Come on, Bennett, throw away that chicken-shit gun. You don't just want to pull a trigger. Put the knife in me and look me in the eye and see what's going on in there when you turn it.
(while talking to a bunch of pretty ladies) Biggs: Wanna see me kick some ass?
Lawson: I was afraid you'd miss me! Cooke: Dont worry, we won't. (Cooke and his partner execute Lawson)
Diaz: Mellow out man. Your daughter is safe, Colonel. Now whether she stays that way is up to you. My people, they got some business with you. And if you want your kid back, then you gotta co-operate, right? Matrix: Wrong! (shoots Diaz between the eyes)
Cooke: You know what I like best about this car? The price. (Cranks up the car and backs up) Forrestal: Wait a minute! You can't do that in here! (Cooke speeds up and runs over Forrestal)
(Matrix declines an offer to resume his unit) Matrix: This was the last time. Gen Kirby: Until a next time. (pause) Matrix: No chance.
Matrix: (reading about Boy George in a pop magazine) Why don't they just call him Girl George? It would cut down on the confusion. Jenny: Oh, Dad, that is so old. Matrix: Ha Ha. You know when I was a boy and rock'n'roll came to East Germany, the communists said it was subversive. (thinks and smiles) Maybe they were right.
Gen Kirby: Me and your dad have to talk for a minute Jenny: Yeah Got a warrant? Gen Kirby: (sarcastically) Very funny!
Sully: You know i've got something I'd really like to give you. Cindy: I'm not interested! Sully: Ahh, you don't know what you're missing Cindy: Well from here it looks like a nightmare, will you please leave me alone! Sully: You fucking whore
Arius: Do you remember me Colonel? Matrix: I remember you. Scumbag. Especially the people you've tortured and killed.
Arius: Now that I have you, you will do exactly as I tell you. Matrix: Fuck you.
Cindy: Where are we going? Matrix: Shopping. Cindy: Shopping?
Matrix: What's wrong? Cindy: This isn't a plane... i t's a canoe with wings. Matrix: Well, then, get in and start paddling.
Matrix: Keep an eye out, they'll be coming. You're downwind, the air currents might tip them off Jackson: Downwind? (looks at Matrix like he's crazy) You think I could smell them coming? Matrix: I did.
