I also really like how the bad guy's utopia looks nice but really boring and extremely bland, and then in order to offer you another option the movie has Denis Leary give a horrible rant about "personal freedom".

Oh dude, how weird is that James Belushi bit. How weird are most of the bits in the red carpet.

Last Action Hero is the kind of movie where I look at the criticism and see that they're completely right. But man, how fun are the parts that work.
