"Come with me if you want to live!"

Rating: Null/10 (31 August 2004)

It was years before I finally saw the first TERMINATOR movie. I'd seen TERMINATOR 2 when I was 11 and it still is one of my favourite films. I can now say that this original one is too. Arnie is excellent playing the Terminator as a bad guy. It's nice to see how everything in the sequel came about.
Linda Hamilton is great, playing Sarah as the confused innocent who will ultimately bear the child who will save the future. Michael Biehn is great as well. I guess by now everyone knows the big twist, but I won't give it away. The nightmarish scenes of the future are excellent, especially a scene where a future Terminator bursts into a rebel HQ and lays waste to all around him.
This film will be up there with sci-fi classics for years to come. If you haven't seen it, then you ought to!
