Movie Reviews of The Terminator

Movie Review: The machines are coming
Summary: 5 Stars

T1 is such an important movie, yes the visuals look dated, but how many franchises have lasted this long?
The whole man versus machine has inspired and influenced so many artists, musicians, and other filmmakers.
The acting in this movie is pretty good, Arnold acts like a robot so I'm sure this role wasn't too difficult for him.
Linda Hamilton does the tough lady with brains instead of the usual damsel in distress nonsense.
The directing, the story is top notch.
T1 is a must see for all action, sci fi fans.
Highly recommended.

Summary of The Terminator

This is the film that cemented Schwarzenegger's spot in the action-brawn firmament, and it was well deserved. He's chilling as the futuristic cyborg who kills without fear, without love, without mercy. James Cameron's story and direction are pared to the bone and all the more creepy. But don't overlook the contributions of Linda Hamilton, who more than holds her own as the Terminator's would-be victim, Sarah Connor--thus creating, along with Sigourney Weaver in Alien, a new generation of rugged, clear-thinking female action stars. It's surprising how well this film holds up, and how its minimalist, malevolent violence is actually way scarier than that of its far more expensive, more effects-laden sequel. --Anne Hurley
In the year 2029, the ruling super-computer, Skynet, sends an indestructible cyborg (Arnold Schwarzenegger) back in time to 1984 to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) before she can fulfill her destiny and save mankind.
