Summary: A great sci-fi classic
Review: Terminator 2 is a great addition to any sci-fi enthusiast's collection. The Ultimate Edition DVD contains quite a bit of bonus material that should satisfy any Schwarzenegger and/or Terminator fan.

Summary: An Outstanding Science Fiction Thriller!
Review: This movie was the overwhelmingly successful sequel to the original "Terminator" film that had established the series as well as the plausible context for this return to the science fiction genre and the notion of a world at risk at the hand of a murderous seemingly unstoppable cyborg. This time Schwarzenegger plays a cyborg sent back from the future and reprogrammed by Sarah Connor's son to save her and him (as a boy) from another, much more dangerous and technologically advanced cybernetic organism (a T-1000 series) sent back to eliminate them all. And so the incredible chase established in the first film resumes!

Linda Hamilton reprises her role as Sarah Connor, this time much more savvy, cunning, and street-smart. Newcomer Edward Furlong plays her son, and Robert Patrick plays Schwarzenegger's indefatigable adversary, the quicksilver T-1000 cyborg. A number of others from the original movie are also in this sequel, and the movie propels all of them on through another series of sequences and situations at a speed that is both breathtaking and awe-inspiring. There is also a lot of humor here, as Furlong's character comes to trust and even love the Schwarzenegger cyborg as it protects and helps him to free his mother and evade the T-1000. Some of the language is a bit blue, for Arnold learns from Furlong how to free-associate among a string of four-letter invectives in establishing a running commentary regarding the actions of his foes.

This is a superior thriller, and stands well against the test of time. Some of the special effects are absolutely spellbinding, and the film will easily hold your rapt attention throughout its more than two hour length. Rumor has it that Schwarzenegger and company have agreed to begin production on a new sequel, T-3, sometime in the near-term future. You will love this movie, and I can highly recommend it. Enjoy!

Summary: T2! Best Cameron Film! Best Arnie Film!
Review: Terminator 2, is even more fun and action-packed than the first one. I was eight-years-old when this came out, and was extremely excited! Ofcourse the plot concerns two Terminators sent back to kill John Connor, son of Sarah. One is the T-800, played by Arnold, the other is the T-1000, played by Robert Patric, one of my favorite movie villains. The excitement and horrifying tale never let up. For big T-Buffs, get the Ultimate Edition DVD, and watch the Special Edition which features tons of awesome scenes, which include Kyle Reese and some T-1000 special effects that are incredible!

The special effects are top-notch with Stan Winston returning aswell as ILM doing CGI work, that would later help make Jurassic Park the great film it is. What will be had in the future of The Terminator series? What kind of new action and science fiction will we see in Terminator 3? That question will finally be answered in Summer 2003.

Summary: Phat DVD
Review: This is just the best ever. T2 is one of the few movies I saw as a child (teenager actually) that still blows me away as an adult. All the characters were cool and worked together well. I loved watching the relationship between John and the Terminator grow into a solid friendship. It was also cool watching Sarah overcome her prejudices against the Terminator and realize that he's really not the same as the one that tried to kill her 10 years earlier. That liquid metal T-1000 was just about unstoppable and was pretty scary.

I remember being quite shaken by the scenes of the burning playground at the beginning of the film and by the nuclear holocaust scene. They were very vivid and kinda frightening (I was only 13, remember).

As for the DVD itself, it has the clearest and best picture I've ever seen (there's really something to that THX stuff). I love the DTS 5.1 sound. It really seems like you're in a movie theater.

My fave version of the movie is still the theatrical version. The 2 extended versions are overlong and none of the added footage is really necessary. However the parts where the T-1000 are malfunctioning in the steel mill and melting into the floor could've been left in to show that he was starting to lose ground.

Also (pet peeve) the movie says John was 10 (in the police computer readout), but this is a mistake. In the first movie Sarah was 6 months pregnant with John in November 84 and then gave birth to him February 85. The 2nd movie is set in the summer of 94 (because the Terminator told John that his future self reprograms him 35 years from that time; 1994 + 35 = 2029). Therefore John is only 9 and will be 10 in February 95, but that's just a small pet peeve. Overall, it's the best DVD ever.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I'll Be Back
Review: he said he would be back and he is, besides this great movie, there is hundreds of extras including a full special edition movie with all deleted scenes included. This movie should hold you over until Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. Don't underestimate the power of a Terminator.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: HANDS DOWN, BEST DVD EVER MADE!!!!!
Review: Well, Arnold's film Terminator 2 still manages to amaze! 10 years after its theatrical release, the film's ultimate edition DVD is more amazing than the movie. It is hands down, the best DVD a person can own. For starters, the case comes in a metalic shield, which is a cool bit decoation. But the real beauty lies in the content of the disc. For starters, a movie like this really capitalizes the full potential of DVDs. Its crisp sound and sharp image give the film more depth and you appreciate it on a different level. Films that are great because of their great writing and acting aren't really enhanced by DVD...seeing Humphrey say "All the bars in this world" is not more interesting on DVD...but Terminator 2...WOW!

The real meat and potatoes of this DVD, however, lie in the extra material you get. For starters, the menus are absolutely amazing! They are almost mini-scenes that are completely new, but are so sharp, they could have been used in the movie. All the documentaries are great and let you appreciate the amount of work, time, and energy that went into the film. Its always fun to hear about the film from Cameron and Arnold themselves. These featurettes aren't 2 to 6 minutes either. They have a lot of content and are very interesting.

You are also given the choice of seeing the movie WITH ITS DELETED SCENES placed in! Theres even an alternate ending. Its a great DVD and has, so far, been unsurpassed for its content and presentation. This is the paramount of my or anyone's DVD collection. A must have!

Rating: 5 stars
