Will I watch it again? No.
Maybe TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY (1991) temporarily ruined Schwarzenegger for me but for some reason I missed all of his movies after that (except for TRUE LIES (1994)) until TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES (2003). I have some catching up to do. The funny thing is I have all of his movies during that period but I've yet to watch them. ERASER was fun. It's not one of his stronger entries but it's a good movie nevertheless and Arnold's still riding at the top of his game. I loved that his boss was James Caan and Cann's boss was James Coburn. I love those guys. The best scene for my money was the alligator attack. That was laugh out loud (in a sick way 'cause, you know, guys are getting eaten), air punching awesome. Vanessa Williams did a fine job as did Robert Pastorelli (funny guy). It's nearly two hours long but it didn't really feel like it overstayed its welcome. It's a well paced, fun ride for Schwarzenegger that I'm sorry I missed until now, not that I feel the need to ever watch it again.
