First off, "I'll be back" (in my best Arnold voice). I was and never have been a big Arnold fan, his acting stinks and he over does alot of stuff in the movie that really puts it out of character. I did find though that the stuff that got changed, for me made the movie worse. I will name a couple, first off the wife, she was in no way the sleazy woman they show in the movie. She was more of a withdrawn housewife, who did her duties and that was it, not like the one in the movie, who was all types of kissey face with Doug. Then to make her the secret agent to live with him?! Really? Wasn't a good twist, the fight scene there really sucked! All the cuts that she gave to Doug and after it's all said and done with he sits down and acts like nothing happened. The other thing I really didn't like was that they removed the implant from his head. They used a tracking box, instead of the implant that was in his head. I liked the idea of the implant in his head, as it gave you another perspective, its his thoughts and then the thoughts of the other person, but yet he never went anywhere. The part of the movie where Arnold (Doug) overacts the whole scene of getting put under and then his "awakening", really made me want to punch the screen. In the book, Doug simply wakes up and talks to everyone about his undercover information, ohhh but not Arnold, he has to show off his mighty muscles and go stupid on everyone in the room, not a good add on. I liked the book version way better.
