September 29, 2009I had to reduce this movie to 4 stars because of how annoying and bad Edward Furlong was here. Damn! Other than that Arnold and Robert Patrick are awesome, great effects.

June 9, 2009A hard-core sci-fi action movie masterpiece. A sequel that tops the original by far and stands as one of best sequels ever released and one of the greatest action movies ever made. A film with surprising human emotion the drills you to the heart. It keeps your pulse-pouding with ...( read more)

June 3, 2009This classic united the dream team Cameron - Schwarzenegger for nothing less than a reinvention of the action genre. Full of quotable lines, great action sequences and a story that took the predecessor to a whole new level, while being touching and smart, characteristics not ofte...( read more)

November 19, 2009While the original was scary and inventive, the sequel broke all preconceptions about sf movies. The inventive action sequences are awesome, the relationship between Arnie the robot and the saviour kid is poetic, and the actress who portrayed sarah connor showed an amazing transf...( read more)

January 28, 2008There are not enough words to describe just how much I love this movie, and dammit, none of them are strong enough to convey the sheer intensity of awesomeness that this film produces. This is the one that got me into movies. It's better than anything Spielberg or Lucas ever dreamed up- better even than anything else Cameron himself has ever done. It is the apex of cinema- the pinnacle of storytelling, of action and effects, of drama and suspense. The only way I can truly sum this one up is in one word: Perfect.
Eat it, Citizen Kane. -
November 26, 2007This movie to me was way better than the first Terminator. I loved the fact that it was action packed and at the same time told a story. This film itself had a great cast of characters and not a hard to follow plot which always makes the movie better. I would def recommend this movie for everyone to see.

September 5, 2007Some one does need to create a skin for this movie, I would sell my own mother to be able to lose my memories of watching it before so that I could see it again for the first time and not know from the get go that Arnie is the good guy. The first time I realised Robert Patrick was the bad guy I got more excited than a middle aged woman at a chip'n'dales gig.
Everything about this movie is awesome, the way the Terminator just keeps coming no matter what the fuck they do to it chills me to the bone! -
August 25, 2007i love this movie! its soooo good! better than the 1st and wayyy better than the 3rd!
