Review of Judgment Night (1993) by Theapplegnome — 30 Dec 2014
He’s back! This second Terminator film truly is greater in every way.
In comparison with the first Terminator film is this second installment much better when it comes to action sequences, practical effects and storytelling. The major improvement is of course the villain: the T-1000. He’s so scary and awesome at the same time. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton and Edward Furlong are all spectacular actors, and their characters are so incredible and you really feel close to them. The actors are much more professional now than in the first film. There’s a massive amount of action in this movie, and there’s a huge amount of cool and unique things at the same time. The action is much faster and there are spectacular practical effects that just look incredible. The first Terminator film got some doll models, but this does not. Terminator 2: Judgment Day is a highly entertaining and well-made film that got a touching story and even some humor! The opening scene and the ending are both great, even though the ending felt a bit to rash. The soundtrack is also great, but it could have been even groovier, which could have made the film even cooler and dramatic.
This movie got it all: great science fiction, awesome action sequences and fantastic storytelling. Not to mention the incredible script.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day gets an 8.8/10.
