Summary: Action as action should be.
Review: Sure, it might not be a 100% logical at all times, but when you watch this movie, you realise that you don't really care. It's incredibly cool, and well done. It's really sad to see that some of the movies that are being made today can't match the special effects in this movie. Come on! Almost ten years? Well, Cameron sure knows what he's doing, and Schwarzenegger was born a robot. :)

Summary: best DVD to date
Review: Too often, production studios fail to take advantage of the revolutionary technologies available with the advent of the DVD. This is not the case with Terminator 2: Judgment Day - The Ultimate DVD Edition. Not by a long shot.This release should set the standard for all collector's editions to come. Including both the theatrical release and an extended new "Director's" cut -- complete with fantastic re-mixed 5.1 surround -- fans can't lose. Don't like the new version? Stick with what works. Want to see what was left on the cutting-room floor? Have a look at the new one. Director's cuts often suck. They make you realize why the "new" scenes were deleted in the first place. This release is not one of them. Watch it. Often. It is, after all, the "Ultimate" DVD edition. Really..

Summary: A Fine Example of the Possibilities of the DVD Format
Review: Again, this is another movie I'm not going to try to sell you on. If you are considering buying this DVD version, you probably already know it and love it. Believe me, you will not be disappointed. The video and sound transfers are amazing - five stars to both - and the extra features will keep you busy for days. The only video flaws I saw were in the Special Edition, when an out-take scene was added, lines are noticable across the screen for a split second. Also, I was a little disappointed that the SE cut didn't include the scene where the T-1000 feels John's belongings in the boy's room, but it is certainly not a necessity, and so much was included anyway. Since the disc contains both cuts of the film, purists can watch their original, and interested parties can see how many of the extra scenes fit into an extended version, a version that actually works quite well, if it is a little over-long. My only complaints with this disc are the packaging. Two versions of the Ultimate Edition exist - one that has one disc, and one that has two. The two-disc version comes in a normal, thin case, just like the regular, but because there is an extra plastic flap to hold the second disc, you cannot put the massive book inside the case. Instead, you have to kind of stuff it in the metal, exterior case, which can be a bit of a pain. Other than that, this DVD will satisfy the fans and the extra-features junkies for a long time.

Summary: Truly the Ultimate T2 DVD...
Review: I think EVERYONE has seen this movie at least once. It was the first to let people realise the potential of CGI. Some made some good use of it, most people sadly didn't. It is IMHO alsot he best of the two Termator movies. Arnold puts a much better performance in this one... Robert Patrick was excellent too. The DVD, is truly amazing. Not only do you get 3 versions of the movie, you also get alot of trailers, featurettes, interviews, a commentry track featuring 26 members of the cast and crew... and then there is the film school thing that takes about 6 to go through - which handles about everything there is to know about this movie. Love it or loathe it, just get it. Note: To get to the thrid cut of the movie, put the cursor on "play special edition" and press the combination 82997 on your remote. On the right of the screen it schould say "The Future is Not Set". You get to select the third cut after that. If it doens't work, just play Track 3 of the DVD.

Summary: ULTIMATE INDEED
Review: This is why they invented DVD. You take a great movie and you jam it so full of extras that it takes you days to watch it all. You tweek the sound so it blasts through your surround speakers as if you were watching it all over again in the multiplex. You add additional footage in a special edition that extends the movie by twenty minutes. You gather ALL the stars of the film and interview them about the process of making the movie and everything that surrounded it. You would then have a DVD like TERMINATOR 2 THE ULTIMATE DVD. In my previous reveiws, I was often dissapointed when good films werent given the tweaking that I love with the DVD medium. This is everything I hoped it would be and more. You know the story, now get the extras. BUY THIS DVD!!!! (and while you are at it, buy it at amazon.com and save yourself a couple of dollars).

Summary: There ARE Three versions
Review: For the Reviewer ToddyToddleston who claimed that there was only two versions of the film Terminator 2:Judgement Day the ultimate edition you are wrong. The third version of the film is located on the disk as a special feature and can only be found by a special way. I suggust going to DvdReview.com and looking under easter eggs and it will tell you how to see the third version on the disc. Also for everyone else, I ordered the disc and was amazed at how clear the picture and sound quality was on my dinky little television set. Great!!! Also the supplements on the DVD were Phenominal!. What about the original though this film in the need for the same DVD treatment maybe a better DVD with a bit more extras and better sound quality. Artizan Entertainment has done it this is the best DVD out there right now and will probably be for a long time. Thank you for reading my review.

Summary: Awesome DVD!!!(Instructions on getting 3rd version of movie)
Review: First of all I just want to say that this is the most amazing DVD I have ever seen and heard. It is the centerpiece of my DVD collection, and I'm sure it will be until another movie comes out with a shiny metal box!!!!!
For anyone who has a question regarding accessing the 3rd edition of the movie, here's what you should do:
1. In the menu where you can choose the version of the movie you wish to play, highlight, but don't click, "Special Edition."
2. While "Special Edition" is highlighted, enter "82997" (the date of Judgement Day). Both of Terminator's eyes should glow red, you should see something that says "The Future is not Set," and a new option for "Extended Special Edition" should come up. I'm sure amazon will post this review because I KNOW they want to keep their customers satisfied!!
This DVD is the one to buy!!! If you have any question, just buy the dang thing. I promise you won't regret it.
Note* Panasonic DVD player owners may experience some trouble with the DVD-18 format and may want to buy the 2-disc set instead. The two-disc version is supposed to be released soon, but I could be wrong.

Summary: Truly the Ultimate! One I've been waiting for!
Review: I already owned the VHS set of the Special Edition when the first DVD release of T2 hit the streets. I rented it and found that it was just the theatrical cut. Even though it had superior picture and sound compared to VHS, I decided to wait until the full cut was released. And, after finally experiencing the finished product, I can sincerely state that it was well worth the wait. Now I'm able to view both the theatrical and Special Edition, as well as other deleted scenes. Some of those restorations include Sarah Connor dream sequence featuring 'T1' martyr Kyle Reese, the garage head surgery, John Connor trying to teach the Terminator to smile, and several other little moments that add to the movie's suspense and style. The picture quality's a little better than my original VHS tape, which was excellent in itself. The upside to this is I don't have to worry about the picture quality degrading after endless viewings. It's the sound, however, that's improved by leaps and bounds. The film starts with opening demos of both Dolby and THX sound, both of which just blew me away before the movie's opening sequence even began! It's definitely a big step up from the VHS edition, which was just above adequate. Like the Special Edition DVD release of that other James Cameron gem 'The Abyss', 'T2 Ultimate Collection' is jam-packed with extras. Enough to keep a big-time film buff entertained for hours without ever actually viewing the movie itself. Two 'making of' documentaries, trailers, shooting script, production stills, and much more. Altogether, over six hours worth of stuff! There's even a 'making of' featurette on the Universal Studios attraction T2 3D. And if the DVD's extra features weren't enough, also included is a fairly thick booklet detailing the history and making of the film. The aluminum slipcase gives the total package a proper look, but can easily get scratches, dings, and dents if you're not too careful. Another downside is that it fits quite loosely over the snap case. If you plan to pull it out off your shelf for viewing, I strongly suggest you get a good grip on it first. Or you can just put the slipcase aside and place just the snap case alone on your DVD shelf. I hope you enjoy 'T2 Ultimate Edition' as much as I do! 'Late!
