The movie is about Harry Tasker (played by Schwarzenegger), known as an ordinary computer salesman by his family, but he's actually the United States' top secret agent. Harry's wife began to seek some adventure in her life by dating another man because she thinks that he's dull and boring. He then found out that Helen (Jamie Lee Curtis) is having an affair with a car salesman and seduced her with a lie that he is a spy. So Harry sends his colleagues to kidnap them, but they are actually the ones that were accidentally kidnapped by a group of Arab terrorists. By this event, Helen founds out that Harry is a secret agent by night, and he needs to do his job against the terrorists that possess an atomic bomb planted in Florida.
The most exciting part of the movie is when Harry tries to track down the bomb of the terrorists. While the escape scene on the bridge that connects Florida to the mainland is one of the best shots and the most thrilling parts of the movie.

It has great action stunts that were often executed by Schwarzenegger and Curtis themselves and it has an expensive special effect having a production cost of approximately $120 million.
