Summary: Get the R2 version instead...
Review: This is a great flick, but this DVD really took away it's magic; the sound is in mono and the image is non-anamorphic and full of grain.For a definite version, get our European Special Edition. It consists of 2 discs - the second full of extra's, the picture is anamorphic and with little grain or digital artefacts and the sound has been remixed from mono to Dolby Digital 5.1 The reason that the US version is mono, is because James Cameron originally released the film that way in the pictures back in '84 - even though Stereo and Surround were available.

Summary: The Terminator
Review: Arnold can't get any better. He has done many and many films but The Terminator series takes the cake as Arnold gets sent back from time to face Sarah Connor. He tracks her down and trys to kill her but John from the future sents Kyle Reese John's father to save her from Arnold. As Arnold gets crushed and dies Sarah gets locked up and brakes free in Terminator 2 and must face the T-1000. Two more releases of Terminator 3 and Terminator 4 to be released. As I said in the Terminator 2 review in Terminator 3 Arnold must face a female T-1G in Terminator 3 and as now Arnold an't making any plans for Terminator 4.

Summary: Good movie,but not as good as it's sequal(very unusual)
Review: The Terminator is a good sci-fi movie,directed by James Cameron.It was made on a low budget,and you can tell it,as the special effects weren't all that great,and I don't think the film was originally recorded in stereo either.All that aside,though,it's still a good film.It's got an interesting plot about a seemingly indestructible cyborg called a terminator that travels back in time to terminate a young woman named Sarah Connor.There is also another man named Reece,who travels back in time to protect Sarah,and explains that the terminator wants to kill Sarah to keep her from having her unborn baby.(I won't say who the baby's father is,but it's an interesting twist.)Arnold Schwarzenegger doesn't have many lines,but he is perfect as the terminator.Michael Biehn plays Reece,and Linda Hamilton does a great job as the pretty and naive Sarah.Overall I'd say it's a very good movie,and paves the way for it's excellent sequal.

Summary: Michael Biehn is Amazing!!!
Review: This is the first movie I ever saw Michael in, and I have to say that he is now one of my favorite actors. His portrayal of the loner Reese is flawless. I'm sure everyone knows what the movie is about. A young woman is being hunted by a robot because she will have a son who will lead the humans against the machines in the future. Ok, back to Michael. My favorite scene of his ever is when he is in the hotel room with Sarah (Linda Hamilton), and he is telling her about his childhood and about the picture that had of her. "I came across time for you Sarah. I love you. I always have." That line with the music in the background is enough to make any person cry. He captures the true nature of the role, a soldier who would do anything to protect John (Sarah's son) and a man who would give his life for the woman he loves. Then at the end when Sarah is talking into the tape recorder and she asks herself if she should talk about Kyle, and how she describes him leaves me in hysterics. I am just such a basketcase at that point. This movie is remarkable. T2 is the action part of the series, but this one is the heart!

Summary: intense...but let's talk about the music
Review: you all know the story, and i just wanted to write my opinion about this movie. others will give a huge synopsis. i love the story. i think the best part of it is at the dance club when the three main characters first meet. one thing we forget so many times is the impact of music in the movie. the song they used there in that scene fit perfectly, ("you got me runnin'"). on the whole the music in the movie added such adrenaline to the whole that you can't help but love it.

Summary: Michael Biehn in unappreciated
Review: Honesty, this is my favorite movie of all time. I've seen it at least 20 times and every time I see it I pick something else that makes me realize how truly great it is. The acting is superb. Although Arnold's portrayer of the Terminator was right-on, Michael Biehn is even better. I can't take my eyes off him. His character is man from a horrific future who knowingly sacrifices himself for Sara Conner. Every movement of his eyes, every facial expression, every word out of Michael Biehn's mouth is that of the character. When you watch the movie, you know you're watching Arnold Schwarzenegger, but Michael Biehn WAS Kyle Reese. It's too bad that Biehn never received the recognition he deserved. My favorite part is when Kyle descibes a picture he had of Sara and then confesses his love for her. He gets up from his chair and nervously starts packing away explosives into a bag saying, "I shouldn't have said that." Sara comes over to him, takes his face in her hands and kisses him. What I would give to take her place! I could go on and on forever about this, but I'll end here by saying that both this and sequel are excellent, but this one is better. It has extreme replay value, which is why you buy several copies :) -Amanda

Summary: The best film ever made!
Review: I bought this dvd because its my favourite film of all time, the picture is not perfect and the sound is in mono,but never mind MGM are releasing a Special Edition early 2001 with Anamorphic picture, 5.1 Digital sound and other extras,should be worth the wait.
