Summary: Great Movie, Awesome DVD
Review: This is the first DVD I ever bought, and it was a great purchase. Even if you have it on VHS or on an earlier DVD edition, I would highly recommend buying this version because of its new features. I'm sure everyone knows the plot: Humans vs. Machines after WWIII, the first terminator was sent back in 1984 to kill Sarah Connor, but the human resistance sent back Kyle Reese, both of them died in the first movie. In this movie, a terminator superior to Arnold is sent back to kill John Connor, but this time Arnold is protecting him. Arnold's nemesis, the T-1000, is a stunning visual achievement, with the liquid metal and morphing, and Arnold does a great job as the T-800. The acting in this movie is good all around, I can't think of a single bad performance. The writing is great, not a single scene suffers because of it. The special edition is even better, with new scenes and lots of materials on how the movie was made, plus lots of bios. Check it out if you are a fan of sci-fi or action.

Summary: (Almost)The best DVD
Review: Great acting(even Arni), great sound and a great movie. Cameron seems to be only good 'sequal' director. The 'Almost' in the title is because of; I think the best picture quality is "The perfect storm'. The sound is great, only the same day I watched this DVD, I also watched 'The Rock: The criterion edition'. And that DTS soundtrack will make your neighbours move........ But really. It is absolutely a great DVD. I rate it five stars, because 4,5 is not possible and 4 is not enough

Summary: Why not change the future with the help of it!
Review: Completely different from the first film. James Cameron goes a lot beyond his first attempt. He plays a dramatic twist and trick on everyone by making the « terminator » (or rather its sibling) of the first film the protector of John who is now born and kicking. But another terminator has been sent, entirely made of a special metal that makes him able to take any form he wants. The first thing achieved by the good one is to save John from the bad one. Then He saves the mother who is in a carceral psychiatric hospital. Then he prepares the attack against the bad one. But here James Cameron goes beyond this surface. The good terminator becomes a good father substitute for John. He learns human emotions, even if he will never cry, and he also learns human feelings and motivations and he will help in changing the future completely by destroying the research that would produce the thinking machines and the terminators. Then he deals with the bad terminator and manages to get him molten in a tank of metal in fusion, then to destroy the chip and arm that had already been produced by a research worker and a computer firms that had been destroyed in the meantime, and finally to go beyond his mission and all human feelings and destroy the second existing chip that would produce the machine-dominated future by destroying or having himseld destroyed in the metal in fusion. There is thus some hope that the future could change. Here James Cameron is really optimistic : the human race can use machines to transcend the future and the past to change the past in order to have a better future. He just forgets that if one man has invented this chip, it is someting possible in the human society at a certain moment of its development, and hence at least one other man, if not two or three are on the same line of research and will get to the same results, but not in the US this time, or maybe in the US after all, why not. There is no escape from the future of humanity, no matter how dark it may look, and there is A FATE in this historical perspective, even if this fate might accept some variations. But the general line survives and will always come to life. This would have given a pessimistic twist to the story and this was avoided by James Cameron. That is just what people like Stephen King, or some other science fiction writers avoid : Doomsday is necessarily down the road, a man-made artificial doomsday that has little to do with the Apocalypse but that means the end of humanity anyway, and maybe some resistance that will maybe be successful, at least for a time. A great action film though. Dr Jacques COULARDEAU, Paris Universities II and IX.

Summary: SOUND QUESTION??
Review: This is definitely one of the best DVD ever produced but I noticed that during the truck-helicopter chase, when the helicopter went under the bridge, a distorted sound (hiss) is heard on the right surround(rear) speaker. Does anyone experienced the same flaw?

Summary: Best Movie Ever Made
Review: This one rules. We need movies like this again with guys that actually look like they could do some damage. I am tired of seeing 90 pound woman and 120 men flying in the air kicking. Bring back the real action.

Summary: A True American Classic now on DVD in a new way.
Review: The Terminator is back and this time he is here to protect a boy from a shapeshifting assassin. James Cameron gave his word that he promised a Sequel! so he did. opened in 1990, it gave audiences a new look about humanity and showed what special effects can be different. This DVD includes all the extras that a DVD owner can enjoy including special edition and extended special edition with a awesome menu, including Trailers, behind the scenes and everything to satisfy your appetite for action. Recommendations: Ghost in the Shell, Original Terminator, Robocop, Total Recall, Akira, Stargate, Independence Day, The Abyss, and The Matrix.

Summary: My favorite movie of all time!
Review: This is my favorite movie and the ultimate edition adds more kick to it! What else can be said about this movie? Basically, Ahnuld plays the terminator sent back from the future to protect John Connor, Earth's future resistance hero from a more advanced 'liquid metel' terminator. The first time I saw the morphing, I was so impressed and the special effects still looks great now. The action is also super. Ahnuld looks great with the minigun! The ultimate DVD edition is so chockful of good stuff, you just have to get it. The alternative endings themselves are already worth the extra money. They have also added so many other stuff. And the metal casing is so cool looking. An A+ loaded DVD for an A+ movie.
