This movie had some of the most amazing special effects I have ever seen and a really relentless and nasty terminator to boot!
+3
If you get by the flawed premise of the story's beginning (that another more advanced terminator and a terminator protecter were sent back, even though we were told in the first film that the grid was smashed after John Connor went through) we have a great heart-pounding action film. Not quite as good as the first film (otherwise I would have rated it a 5) but still one of the best action flicks available on video. Spawned the line, Hasta la vista, baby.

It's been a long time coming but I'm finally going to talk about the movie I most remember from my youth, Terminator 2: Judgment Day. It's the movie I've seen probably more then any other, the movie that I always looked forward to seeing even if I'd seen it 3 times earlier that week, and a movie that I'm finally talking about cause I really don't have much to say, but I'll try. Much like when I reviewed Star Wars it's hard to say things that everyones … more

Super sized sequel and Arnold's most famous movie about two cyborgs that fight each other over a young boy who will help save the world. Fantastic

I liked the intriguing take on time travel that began to appear in this, and the way appearance and character were kept at odds.

Super Duper sized follow up to the original 84 sci fi action movie has Arnie "back" as a good guy to protect a young John Connor from the newly created T-1000 played with cold menace by Robert Patrick for one of the most unbeatable badguys ever. Full of action and keeps the themes of the first film. A classic and Arnold never made a better movie.

Very rare that a sequel surpasses the oringal. One of the best action movies of all time.

Terminator vs. an upgrade liquid metal Terminator, as they fight over John Connor, who is targetted by Skynet to die. Gotta see this! Hasta!

While Terminator set up the beginning of John Connor and created a new era in FX and unbrash action and suspense this no holds bar sequel Improves on the first and pushes the special effects further than ever for it's day. Terminator 2: Judgment Day is smart, taunt, stylish, dark and oh so much fun. It's the perfect action sequel and one of the best films of the '90s. … more

About this movie
A decade after Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) destroyed the original Terminator, a second unstoppable killing machine (Arnold Schwarzenegger) arrives from the post-apocalyptic year 2029. But this time his mission is to stop an even deadlier Terminator, the T-1000 (Robert Patrick), made entirely of shape-shifting liquid metal and determined to kill young John Connor (Edward Furlong), the future leader of the human resistance. Sarah, John, and the Terminator counter by going after the scientist responsible for developing Skynet, the computer system fated to destroy humanity, leading to an explosive and spectacular clash with the fate of humanity in the balance. Whereas James Cameron's original THE TERMINATOR was a low-budget marvel of efficiency and speed, TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY is an action-packed blockbuster with some of the most amazing stunts ever filmed and ground-breaking, Academy Award-winning special effects. Star Schwarzenegger was paid in the form of a $15 million dollar jet to revisit his mos...
