Last Action Hero is alright. It’s an on-the-nose send-up of the action genre. AC-DC wrote a song for it, Big Guns.
It’s a very…literal send-up of the action movie genre. if you’re not familiar with it, a young boy ends up magically teleported into an action movie he’s watching, and spends half of the run time of both films trying to convince the over the top action hero that it’s a movie.
It’s fun for what it is; I personally think True Lies does the “lol action movies, amirite?” thing better.
Was Last Action Hero good? I never saw it, but the soundtrack is loaded with 90s music.

I enjoy Last Action Hero. I probably won’t go so far as to call it “good”, but it’s fun, especially if you grew up watching 80s action movies.
