Funny thing about Last Action Hero... If it was made today people would eat it up. People love the "meta" stuff a lot more and that really was one of the first mainstream meta films where the star took the piss out of the whole action movie films.

Yes, some of the things in the movie could have been better... But, its actually quite a fun film. Enjoy it for what it is and its really not a dumpster fire or trainwreck. I've seen a lot worse movies new and old.

Plus veteron stunt man Al Leong who plays the Wing Chong Hatchet Man in Big Trouble In Little China gets killed by an ice cream cone in the back of the head... Yeah, its a bit silly and dumb. But, that was the point.
But, I do think the Translight is just a mess and not really good. But, can't blame the pinball, the poster for Last Action Hero kind of sucked too. Better Translight and maybe the game pops more.

As for the game. I've only played it digitally, but I enjoyed it. Wouldn't mind owning one. But, I do like data east games. I even like Laser War. Are Data East games the best pinball games out there... No, but I think they're fun. Love Tales From The Crypt myself!
