 Kindergarten Cop Kindergarten Cop Quote: Kindergarten Cop is a 1990 American action crime comedy film directed by Ivan Reitman and starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger stars as John Kimble, a tough police detective, who must go undercover as a kindergarten teacher to catch drug dealer Cullen Crisp (Richard Tyson), before Crisp can get to his ex-wife and son, while along the way he discovers his passion for teaching. Pamela Reed plays his partner Phoebe O'Hara, and Penelope Ann Miller plays Joyce, the teacher who becomes Kimble's love interest. The original music score was composed by Randy Edelman. Schwarzenegger received a salary of $12 million for the film.

Re: Kindergarten Cop Nothing great, but it's fairly cute and entertaining. I loved it when I was younger.

Re: Kindergarten Cop Such a quotable film. While I think Arnold's persona of himself in the beginning of the film is more hysterical. Its a very good fish out of water comedy for Arnold, and has been copied many times. It's the best comedy and action star has ever made.

Re: Kindergarten Cop I like this movie. It's unbelievably quotable. Makes a great soundboard, too.

Re: Kindergarten Cop "Who is my daddy and what does he do?"
"Stop whining!"
"It's not a tumah!"
It's neither great or terrible but it's very entertaining, if only for Arnie mocking himself endlessly. The story is laughable and none of the actors are very good, but the dialogue is gold. Can't believe this film wasn't originally planned as an Arnie vehicle; it wouldn't work at all with any other actor.

Kindergarten Cop is a good movie. It's fun for all the family really bar a few F-bombs. It's obviously given so many one-liners, especially since the Internet has caught on to them, and the great thing is that every time someone uses one they feel as if they re the first person to use it. I never get tired of saying these in Arnie's voice; "Who is your daddy and what does he do?" and "I like you, Cindy". The romantic subplot needs to be there I suppose, but I'm not concentrating on that.
