Kindergarten Cop – 3 out of 5

I haven’t seen Kindergarten Cop since—well, probably since it came out in 1990.  I remember being mildly amused by it but mostly the film is just a collection of a few quotes that have been cemented into our pop culture.  Mostly, “it’s not a too-mah.”  After revisiting Arnold Schwarzenegger in Jingle All the Way for the holiday season (you can read my review here), I decided to check out another comedy from the man and this one became my target.  Like Jingle All the Way, I clearly didn’t appreciate the charm of this one when I first saw it or how much Arnold gives to his comedic roles.

He's a cop, you idiot!

After the only witness needed to convict the drug crime lord Cullen Crisp (Richard Tyson) ends up dead, Detective John Kimble (Schwarzenegger) and his partner Detective Phoebe O’Hara (Pamela Reed) are forced to go undercover in a small town in Oregon.  O’Hara is meant to pose as a kindergarten teacher in order to find Crisp’s ex-wife and use her testimony to bring the criminal to justice but after she gets sick, Kimble is forced to become the teacher.  But can he handle both the investigation and a pack of unruly kids?

Children...is there anything scarier than children?

This is the face I'm making internally all day long
at my day job.
Like I stated, I haven’t seen this one in over twenty years so it felt like I was watching this one with fresh eyes.  As a young man watching it, the film was kinda dumb, goofy fun and it was amusing to see the action star Arnold get stressed out over having to teach kids but watching it as an adult, I’m able to see the charm in it that I didn’t really notice before.  Director Ivan Reitman did a tremendous job of balancing the comedic and action tones of the film—granted, the movie isn’t like Arnold’s usual action films but when he’s acting like a cop and doing movie cop stuff, it doesn’t feel out of place when he’s the fish-out-of-water teacher.  Additionally, the story works for what it’s trying to be, all the kids and supporting players are fantastic but, watching this now (and it’s something I paid attention to revisiting Jingle All the Way), I really notice just how much effort Arnold is giving to the role and how fun he is as John Kimble.

"And now begins my four part lecture series about why it is not a too-mah."

Arnold really makes the character exceedingly enjoyable and is able to balance being both a badass at the beginning at the movie (and almost at a satirical level where he’s teasing other roles he’s done) and then being the lovable scamp who is in over his head.  What really impressed me was how great he is with his reaction to the children and the situations.  He has this perfect level where he doesn’t come off too cheesy and silly and is able to ride the line and play a fantastic straight man to the goofiness around him.  There’s never a hint that he is just phoning his whole performance in and is clearly giving this role as much effort as he would any of his action pieces.

The 90s, a time when your bad guy could have a ponytail and it not be a joke.

I won’t make the argument that Kindergarten Cop is a hysterical comedy that had me rolling on the floor but it is a fun and charming feature that offers up plenty of easy entertainment.  It has a surprisingly longer than expected running length but Ivan Reitman knows how to keep everything flowing and combining that with the performances and Arnold being his stupidly awesome self, the film is a lot more enjoyable and amusing than I remembered it to be.  Now, will I take a chance and watch the sequel?  Maybe.
