It's Schwarzenegger at his best in this classic action smash that pits a suspended FBI agent against the Mob. But once he's in, he can't get out and when a gorgeous mole is paid off to betray him, he becomes trapped in a deadly game where loyalty means nothing and there is only one person he can trust. Prepare to take no prisoners -- nobody gives him a raw deal.
 


Editor's Note

A Chicago mafia is violently doing away with witness who were to incriminate them in court. Schwarzenegger is the ex-FBI agent enlisted to slip into the nefarious organization. Violence and bloodshed ensue, as Schwarzenegger delivers his own brand of justice!

Professional Reviews
New York Times
"...RAW DEAL delivers every punch it promises and, though the violence is spectacular and ridiculous, [Schwarzenegger] behaves...like a mega-Eagle Scout..." 06/06/1986 p.C5

Variety
"...[The director] does have some fun with the periodically outrageous dialog, and also lightly sends up the slick fetishism surrounding the [genre]..." 06/04/1986

Chicago Sun-Times 3 of 10
In a way, it should all be so simple. We could type the screenplay ourselves, wearing boxing gloves.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is an ex-FBI agent, thrown out of the bureau in disgrace, reduced to working as a sheriff in a small town. An old FBI friend approaches him with an offer: infiltrate the Chicago mob, destroy its operations and regain your reputation. This plot is so simple (and has been told so many times before), that perhaps the most amazing achievement of Raw Deal is its ability to screw it up. This movie didn't just happen to be a mess; the filmmakers had to work to make it so confusing. - Roger Ebert
