'Never Seen It' - Episode 15 - It's not tumor, it's 'Kindergarten Cop'

Hey millennials, before Arnold Schwarzenegger was governor of California and a perpetual thorn in the side of Trump, he used to be the biggest movie star on the planet. And he occasionally made movies that somewhat veered away from his action persona into broad comedy.

Whether those outings were entirely successful is a big question, and my wife and I took our first shot at this genre of 'Ahnold' films by watching one of his biggest hit: the 1990 movie Kindergarten Cop.

We've both seen scenes from it over the years, but for whatever reason never took it in as a whole. So here are our first thoughts after watching it separately and coming together to take it on for the first time.

Needless to say we found this movie more than a little bit problematic. This is one of those movies where people probably remember individual lines (the famous "it's not a tumor") but not necessarily much of the substance of it.

For the initiated and the uninitiated, here's our take:
