enjoyable action sci-fi film

Rating: 8/10 (9 April 2003)

This is one of the most well known sci-fi action films out there, and why not. Its packed with solid action, a good plot, and good direction. The only thing was the special FX, but considering the film's budget and that it was 1984, they are not bad. But comparing them to today's they are kind of weak. But besides that, this is one hell of an action film. Arnie's does'nt say much but he does a good as the title character. I also thought Michael Beihn gave a good performance as the rebel soldier sent back to protect Linda Hamilton. The action scene's were also solid, especially the car chases and the shootout at the police station. In all a highly recommended film, especially for fans of Arnold as well as sci-fi action film's. 4/5
