Best action movie ever

Rating: Null/10 (11 October 2000)

John Woo has made some good action movies. The stunts and fights, and.....everything are usually good (until MI:2 came out, that is). But no one, not even Woo, can compare to what James Cameron made in 1991. Terminator 2 is one of the best action movies ever made. It is almost flawless. It has, literally, everything that makes action films so deliciously appealing. Even though it is a sequel (the best sequel ever) the viewer isn't hindered if they haven't seen the first one. It so delicately explains what happened in the first one throughout the movie, so the viewer doesn't feel excluded or confused. I saw this before I saw the first Terminator, and I understood it completely. And even though it reviews the events of the first movie, it doesn't dumb it down so the audience understands. This film, among others (The Abyss, Titanic, Aliens, True Lies), have established Cameron's place as one of the best film makers ever. I can't wait for his next film. It won't disappoint, I'm sure.
