You'll be back... waiting for more.

Rating: 9/10 (3 August 2009)

The first Terminator film isn't my favorite of the series. It's probably my second favorite in the series. Back in the day, I used to have a huge Terminator obsession. The obsession died out after a while but the Terminator films are pretty cool. The Plot: A machine from the future is sent back in time to kill the mother of the future resistance leader John Conner. A soldier is sent back in time to protect her. But it turns out that he not only protects her, he is the father of the future resistance leader. The first Terminator film is a classic. It doesn't make my favorites list, but it's sequel does. From the minute you see Arnold Swartzenegger on the screen, you know he was on roids.The other films I don't think he was. I don't like this one as much because I prefer the liquid guy as a villain over him. Arnold Swatzenegger isn't meant to be playing a villain in a film. He's always the hero. This film is a ton better than that ridiculous film Conan. Overall, the original Terminator film isn't my favorite, but it's not the worst.
