No as good as the first film!

Rating: Null/10 (2 August 2003)

I love 'T2' but it isn't as good as the original film. People are fooled by it because, yes, it does look better. But as a FILM with all the elements in place and evaluated, this film has less edge and a running time that is too long. Although it won four technical Oscars, James Cameron's vision in the first film is far more clear and original. Arnold looks far more menacing as a bad guy. He looked younger and much hungrier for action in the first film and Michael Biehn was a great character as Reese who, unfortunately, had to get killed off.
