Eraser is a ridiculous film in many ways, and although the basic premise 
for the gun is a real one, I'm not too convinced by its high-tec 
sighting software or the dubious claim that it can fire projectiles at 
near lightspeed (especially when you can see them moving onscreen when 
they do fire). It does have one of the Governator's 'best' crap 
one-liners, however - during a gunfight at a zoo they unwittingly 
release a large crocodile, which Arnie then dispatches with the line 
"You're lugguge!"
