"I married Rambo!" – Helen Tasker

Why watch this? This summer popcorn flick has the perfect blend of comedy, character and outrageous action.

Plot Summary: Harry Tasker lives a double life as a family man who hides his secret career as a counterterrorism agent from his wife, Helen. Harry's suspicions about Helen's fidelity emerge during a mission to stop a terrorist organization from obtaining nuclear weapons. These two seemingly unrelated storylines eventually intertwine, thrusting both Harry's personal and professional lives into chaos as he fights to save the world and his marriage.

Dad's Preview: This action comedy from James Cameron is really fun to watch. The stunts are incredible and the acting is superb. The amazing Jamie Lee is the heart of the film as a neglected housewife desperate for a little adventure to give her life some meaning.
