Yeah, i will wait this scenario in 10 years. This is not sci-fi now, its now reality.
One of the best sequels you will ever seen other than Aliens which is also made by Jim Cameron. The action in the movie has a point and the visual effects were spot on. Arnold best point in his beautiful career and Hollywood still making great action movies. Story telling, screenplay, editing, cinematography, BGM, direction all done to perfection. Characters were wrote beautifully even the sky net guy who Sarah haunts to kill just comes in the movie for a short while but what a turn over that character is ... from been the lead of skynet chasing the best technology and to the point gives his life to destroy it. It's beautiful. Feel proud to have lived in this movie era. James is the most genius filmmaker we have in the world today.
It was just so bunched with action that I didn't really want to keep watching.
Since the first terminator failed to kill Sarah Connor and prevent the birth of a man who would defeat them, the machines send a more advanced T-1000 model in 1995 to kill ten-year-old John. At the same time, future John sends reprogrammed T-800 to protect him and the madness begins again.This time, the story is somewhat more complex, and 15 times bigger budget and advanced technology bring richer scenery and better special effects, so the film wins 4 Oscars: for sound, sound effects, visual effects and makeup. It gained cult status and, with "Star Wars" and "The Matrix", it's one of the most popular SF movies. Schwarzenegger moves from the role of a villain into the lead and gets more space to show what he's capable of and, despite popular belief, he's quite good. Linda Hamilton reprises the role of Sarah Connor and also provides much better performance than in the first film. And she looks better too. John Connor was the debut role for then fourteen-year-old Edward Furlong, which launched him among stars and provided him with a career on a big screen, and Robert Patrick made us believe in liquid metal robots and blurred the line between SF and horror.While the first movie has an essentially stronger story and more tense atmosphere, this one is more impressive on the technical side, and it's hard to say which one is better. After all, these are two parts of the same story and can be seen as a two-part film, which in my opinion deserves strong8/10
