The Arnold Sequel

Schwarzenegger's photo ops can be so splendid, it's a wonder they don't sell popcorn in the lobby. His ambitious reform agenda, though, is losing box office appeal among California voters.

March 4 - Arnold Schwarzenegger's latest political road show begins with the requisite great visuals and humble hero-against-the-forces-of-evil storyline...
