Movie Reviews:

  • zag: Terminator 2 is basically one of the greatest films of all time, its an absolute must watch if you like Science Fiction, Action, or even Comedy films. It could have been so bad, but the film somehow pulls it off with crazy stunts, an amazing cast and a great story.

    The film really tackles the fate of humanity straight on which gets you thinking about our path as a species but also what we can do today to change things. The story takes you on a journey which is one of the most believable time travel movies of all time.

    The action scenes are fantastic, with wall to wall fighting, car chases and military maneuvers that will keep you on the edge of your seat. That’s mixed with a great cast and brilliant story telling from the directory. I would say its even better than the first movie which is also a classic.

    Overall I have probably seen this movie 20 or 30 times over the last 25 years(go is it that long!!) and still don’t get bored. Its a timeless classic that I urge everyone to watch.

  • Gimly: While I am in that minority which believes it is actually the first _Terminator_ movie which is the best of the franchise, don’t let that for one minute convince you I don’t absolutely love _Judgement Day_. It’s honestly pretty crazy to me how just bonkers good these first two _Terminator_ movies are. Especially when you consider how completely every single sequel managed to miss the mark.

    I like to imagine that in the Good Timeline, where everything isn’t Terrible™, this movie is exactly the same, but the trailer doesn’t spoil the twist about Robert Patrick being a Terminator and Arnie being a good guy. I know that they also spoil the twist about who’s a Terminator and who’s not and who’s a bad guy and who’s not in the trailers for the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th too, but I’m pretty sure that in the Good Timeline those never got made, so whatever.

    _Final rating:★★★★½ – Ridiculously strong appeal. I can’t stop thinking about it._

  • Kamurai: Great watch, will watch again, and can recommend.

    This is everything the original was turned up one notch. Now Arnold is a caring unfeeling robot, and we missed a whole movie where Sarah Connor went hard into training.

    This has twists, escapes, a liquid terminator, better special and practical effects, some big explosions, active discussion of how to change the future, and some really iconic moments.

    The movie isn’t chatty in the traditional sense, once Arnold gets involved, all the dialogue outside the asylum is very much to mechanically move the plot forward. The terminators don’t voluntary “chat”, they more vomit exposition dialogue.

    While I’ll always remember this as a great movie, it isn’t without its flaws. Hearing John’s pre-pubescent voice cracking almost made me turn it off, and I know I found a couple of (small) problems while I was watching, but I couldn’t remember them by the end of the movie, so they’re clearly not that important. I may have been a bad foley sound on a weapon, and probably something that the T-800 that didn’t seem robo-talk enough.

    I honestly don’t know who isn’t going to like this movie: it even has a low kill count.
