masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (20 March 2002)

As action movies go, this is the best one ever made. As movies go, it's firmly in my top 10. James Cameron is at his best when writing one-liners and orchestrating on-screen firefights. This beats any John Woo movie with style. It even surpasses The Matrix, because of its coherence. This movie feels like it takes place in a real place, and the events flow from one to another, never allowing the movie to look like a pieced-together collection of action sequences. An incredible movie.
