ReviewJames Cameron’s Terminator is the second best Sci-Fi of all time after James Cameron’s Aliens. It stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as a Cyborg sent back in time to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton). Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn) is also sent back in time to protect her. This film contains amazing scenes of the future over run by robots. The scene when the invulnerable Arnie shoots up a police station to get Sarah Connor is one of my favourite action scenes of all time. A truly brilliant Sci-Fi action thriller. A completely original plot. James Cameron is a genius. |
