Review of The Terminator (1984) by John Eric D — 02 Jun 2015
The remastered version of this on bluray is pretty impressive. I thought that one is a one good looking film since it was about year 84. The Terminator is a low budgeted sci-fi film with a very interesting story line.
James Cameron made an idea that feels interesting, like there's something more to it. It is very engaging, the part where, Kyle Reese tells these stories, thinking he came from a future world. He was sent from the future to protect Sarah Connor, the most important character in this film.
Yet here comes the Terminator, a cyborg from the future to terminate Sarah Connor portrayed by a very strong looking Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold is a bad ass cyborg, he portrayed it very well in a manner which feels, he is really a living cybernetic organism.
With straight forward one liners, it is almost funny at times. The robotics in this film are top notch from it's time. I thought Cameron pulled the trigger for innovation. Very well executed action / sci-fi films of all time.
Cameron is just a genius.5/5.
