Movie Reviews of Terminator 2: Judgment Day [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: An Incredible Action Flick.....And Such A Deal!
Summary: 4 Stars
I usually don't rate highly movies in which I can't stand listening to two-thirds of the lead characters, but this film has so many spectacular, memorable moments it always fascinates me....and brings me back for more viewings. Now I see this "Extreme" DVD edtiion is on sale here at Amazon for a mere $4.99. Wow, now that's a deal.
I enjoyed all three of the "Terminator" films but this one has always stood out.....because of the villain and the incredible special-effects.
When this movie came out, the FX regarding Robert Patrick's cyborg-patrol cop were so jaw- dropping, so astounding that people couldn't believe what they were seeing. Some 15 years later, they are still cool.
Watching Patrick morph into various characters is incredible, literally changing shapes or having his fingers or arms extend to an awl-like instruments. For a long time, he looks like the most indestructible "person" I've ever seen in a film. He certainly is still one of the most unique villains ever shown on film.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, an intelligent but less-advanced cyborg, plays the only likable character. The mother-son combination of Linda Hamilton and Edward Furlong are too hard-edged, too smart-mouthed for my tastes. Hamilton was a lot more feminine and humanistic in the first "Terminator." Now she's ultra-macho and profane. Much worse than her is her kid, a real punk if there ever was one. There's something very irritating about Furlong, and not just the character he plays here. I'm not surprised he never became a star.
Still, despite all these annoyances, as a fan of special-effects and a good adventure yarn, I can't help but wonder now how this looks on Blu-Ray! I guess others do, too, which which may be why this "Extreme" edition can be had for such a small price.
Summary of Terminator 2: Judgment Day [Blu-ray]
Lionsgate Terminator 2: Judgement Day (Blu Ray) (Widescreen)Arnold Schwarzenegger returns as "The Terminator" in this explosive action-adventure spectacle.Now he's one of the good guys, sent back in time to protect John Connor, the boy destined to lead the freedom fighters of the future. Linda Hamilton reprises her role as Sarah Connor, John's mother, a quintessential survivor who has been institutionalized for her warning of the nuclear holocaust she knows is inevitable. Together, the threesome must find a way to stop the ultimate enemy-the T-1000, the most lethal Terminator ever created. Co-written, produced and directed by James Cameron ("The Terminator," "Aliens," "Titanic"), this visual tour de force is also a touching human story of survival.
After he pushed the envelope of computer-generated special effects in The Abyss, director James Cameron turned this hotly anticipated sequel to Terminator into a well-written, action-packed showcase for advanced special effects and for one of the most invincible villains ever imagined. Terminator 2: Judgment Day is a legitimate sequel: there's more story to tell about a hulking, leather-clad android (Arnold Schwarzenegger) who arrives from the future to protect a rebellious teenager and future leader (Edward Furlong) from being killed by the tenacious T-1000 robot (Robert Patrick), whose liquid-metal construction makes him seemingly unstoppable. The fate of the future lies in the balance, with Linda Hamilton (who would later marry her director) reprising her role as the rugged woman whose son will change the course of history. --Jeff Shannon
