Interesting parable

Rating: Null/10 (21 February 2001)

When I first saw the film, I assumed that it was just a sci-fi flick. But something in the back of my head haunted me. Then I realized the odd use of symbolism in the plot with John Connor being a Christ-figure and his mother as the crusher of the serpent's head.
When viewed with this subtext in mind, the film took on a much more subtle tone. I can respect what the moviemakers were doing here as they taught a lesson about not surrendering our humanity to technology.
