Kindergarten Cop

First, it's an amazing movie. If you haven't seen it, then watch it. But more importantly, for whom was this movie made? It stars The Schwarzenegger as a cop who is trying to take down a drug kingpin of sorts. It seems this drug kingpin's wife took some of his money, 3 million dollars, and ran away with their son, and is hiding out. Rumor has it that she's in Astoria, Oregon. The Schwarzenegger accompanies his female partner to Astoria in order to find her, to protect her, and so she can testify against him. Arnold's partner poses as a kindergarten teacher....except she gets sick the first day and Arnold has to take over, and hilarity ensues. It's rated PG-13, has some violent moments, and has some coarse language, as they say. Due to the rating and what have you, I am reasonably certain it wasn't intended for small children. Given the nature of the content, Arnold teaching Kindergartners, it's not exactly for teens. And I can't imagine too many adults would be interested. Despite the fact that I have no clue as to who the intended audience is, it made over 90 million dollars when it was released in 1990. I managed to see it as a child, and nostalgically cling to it, the wife recently saw it, and was dismayed that she had not seen it before. It's an amazing movie, seriously, check it out. It's got some terrible acting, by both adults and children, but overall is hilarious. Watch it, then tell me who it was made for.
