Groundbreaking movie for CGI

Rating: 10/10 (2 February 2012)

Terminator 2 was a ground breaking movie as far as taking a gigantic jump forward in what you were capable of doing with CGI technology at the time. The entire T-1000 version of the Terminator would not have been able to take place without this new technology. The movie holds up so well even after being almost 20 years since it's release, the special effects don't like dated at all.
Arnold Schwarzenegger returns to the Terminator franchise here only this time his character of the T-800 has been programmed to protect John Connor. Linda Hamilton is also back but she's no longer the scared and weak Sarah Connor but the hardened tough as nails version you see here in this movie. John Connor is added to the franchise here but with him being 12 years old he's still learning what it takes to be a leader, he's played by Edward Furlong in his debut film. Robert Patrick is the hunter in this movie as he plays the much more advanced Terminator the 1-100 who can shape shift and take on the appearance of other characters.
