AD 2017--The world is devastated and dominated by machines-with Skynet as its dictator. The human resistance fights back under the leadership of John Connor.
However, the machines send a Terminator--a T - 1000--back to when Connor is 10 years old; the resistance sends an older model of terminators- T - 800--back in time to protect John...
Present day--Sarah and the T800 now have to protect John from the T 1000--immensely powerful and relentless.
The brilliance behind T2 is not just its action--its the story; characters are well-developed and the T 800 is "humanized" in the film, learning to appreciate life as the plot progresses.
It plays on themes surrounding cloning and life; perhaps a large part of the story's aura comes from creating an alternate "what if" future which would have made Phllip K Dick proud.
If you have enjoyed Blade Runner from the 1980s, T2's story is just as great and packed with more action !
