Rated Terminator 2: Judgment Day 8/10

This movie really had no business being as good as it was. The action is still thrilling to watch. I have seen this movie before and I still feel the tension in the action, I still feel scared for the characters, despite knowing what will happen because the fight scenes are that good. But, even more than that, it's the characters that make it so special. Watching this kid, John Conner's and just how human, or should I say, how much of a kid he is despite being raised to be a tough military leader basically from birth and having his mom get sent to a psych ward and his dad being from the future and therefore not knowing him. You actually get to see how this affects him and how important it is to him to have the closest thing he has had to a father figure who happens to be a killing machine from the future sent to protect him. There's also Sarah who isn't handling any of the news of Judgement Day well at all. She has nightmares about it and is obsessed with ensuring it never happened to the point of attempting to kill the man who made it all possible. It's one of the best action movies ever for a good reason. If you haven't seen it yet, please do yourself a favor and check it out. I don't even like action movies, but I love this. Heck, my mom who also doesn't like action movies loves this. It is that good that people who don't like this genre like this movie.
