Arnold's big break

Rating: 9/10 (4 April 2000)

The Terminator stars Arnold Schwarzenegger a cyborg (part man/part machine) from the future on a mission to kill a seemingly innocnet woman (Linda Hamilton). Micheal Biehn plays a rebel soldier sent from the future to try and stop the Terminator from killing Sarah Connor (Hamilton).
This was Arnold Scharzenegger's big break in the movie business. It also was a big film for James Cameron. Although with a low budget ($6.4 million) it still had above average special effects. All in all The Terminator is a great movie. Also starring Paul Winfield and Lance Henriksen.
