In many ways, Better than the Original.

"Hasta la vista, baby!" -The Terminator

Terminator 2: Judgment Day is everything that the original wanted to be and

should have been. Nothing about it is dated at all, and it never gets old or dull.

The story is about another terminator, much more dangerous than Arnold's in

the original is sent back through time to kill John Connor in person. While a

reprogrammed terminator is sent back to protect him. They also head to the

machine's main headquarters and try to destroy the machines once and for all

and prevent the tragic judgment day which cause the war between humans and

machines. T2 is a much more clear and understandable take on the future.

The direction is wonderful, and Schwarzenegger is much better than he was in

the first movie. This may be his best performance, but definitely his most

memorable. The special effects are a landmark and top-notch, and the action

seats are at the edge of your seat with new thrills. In the end, this is an all time

classic film getting only better within age. 10/10 stars.
