Commando is a 1985 American action film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Alyssa Milano, David Patrick Kelly and Bill Duke. It was directed by Mark L. Lester and shot on location in and around Los Angeles, California. Retired Special Forces operative John Matrix is informed by Major General Franklin Kirby that all the other members of his unit have been killed by unknown mercenaries. Despite being given protection, the mercenaries attack Matrix's secluded mountain home & kill the guards, kidnapping his daughterJenny in the process. A remaining mercenary explains that Matrix is needed to carry out a political assassination for Arius (who calls himself "El Presidente") and his army of former U.S. soldiers and mercenaries. Arius is awarlord and dictator who was previously overthrown by Matrix. He now wishes to lead a military coup in his home country, Val Verde, and reasons that Matrix' familiarity with the country's new leader will aid in an assassination attempt. As Arius has Jenny, Matrix reluctantly accepts the demand. After boarding an airplane to take him to Val Verde, Matrix instead kills his guard and jumps into aswamp just as the plane is taking off from the runway. He then sets his watch timer for the approximate time of the flight. Subsequently, he commandeers an off-duty flight attendant's (Cindy) car and eventually manages to enlist her help. After confronting (and killing) two of the mercenaries Matrix learns where Arius' mansion is located (and where Jenny is presumably being held), he breaks into a surplus store and steals a one-man arsenal of both small arms and heavy weapons. With Cindy's complicit help he escapes from the Police who have arrested him for breaking and entering the surplus army store. After commandeering a seaplane from a nearby marina run by Arius, Matrix and Cindy land the plane off the coast of the island where Arius is located. Matrix instructs Cindy to contact General Kirby and then proceeds to Arius' villa, fighting and killing Arius' private army on the way. He subsequently confronts and kills Arius in a gunfight. Matrix finds Jenny in the basement, but he is shot in the arm by Bennett, a previous member of his team who had been thought dead. Matrix then taunts Bennett into facing him in a knife fight, an invitation Bennett cannot resist. After a fierce struggle, Matrix gains the upper hand and Bennett, defeated, reaches for a machine pistol, but is impaled with a steel pipe by Matrix before he can fire. After Kirby arrives with a military detachment he offers Matrix another term of service in the Force, however Matrix declines and he, Cindy, and Jenny fly off into the sunset.
