Arnold Schwarzenegger has reviewed his career in the documentary 'Arnold', in which he has recounted controversial moments in his life and career. One of them has been when critics slammed a movie when he was at the top: "It hurts you, it hurts your feelings and it's embarrassing."
One of the most outstanding Netflix releases has been 'Arnold', the docuseries with which Arnold Schwarzenegger looks back on the most significant events in his life.
The actor has had a career full of hits and 'blockbusters' such as the 'Terminator' and 'Conan' sagas, or the films 'Predator', 'Commando' or 'Total Recall'.
As in all such long careers, there were also failures that, on many occasions, he assumed as the main responsible. However, there is a specific film in which the actor has confessed that he had a really bad time.
And it is that the ex-bodybuilder came from breaking the world box office with 'Terminator 2: The Last Judgment', so the disaster that was 'The Last Great Hero' was not expected.
Criticism put him on target and the interpreter has acknowledged in the documentary that "I can't say how upset he was": "It hurts. It hurts your feelings. It's embarrassing."
John McTiernan's film grossed a modest $50 million worldwide, barely covering production costs.
Such was the displeasure of the former governor of California that, according to James Cameron, he called him the following week: "It sounded like he was in bed crying."
"I think it really came as a shock to him," the director said. "I said, 'What are you going to do?' He said, 'I'm going to hang out by myself.' That's the only time I ever heard him say that."
"I didn't want to see anybody for a week," Schwarzenegger added. "But you move on. And my mother-in-law also said that all the time: 'Let's move on'. It's a great message," acknowledged Arnold, who recently also dedicated a message to those who "hate traffic."
Fortunately, after this film, he teamed up again with James Cameron for one of the funniest films in his filmography: 'Risky Lies'.
Together with Jamie Lee Curtis, they reaped 378 million dollars worldwide and nominations for the Oscars, Golden Globes, BAFTA, and the SAG.
"He had never done that before. I thought we could have fun with comedy. I know he's done comedy. He has a good sense of humor," Cameron commented.
