    I always see the regular version of Terminator 2 on sale yet this being the definitive edition it’s only in HD. I love this movie and would definitely purchase it IF we got a version in 4K with HDR or Dolby Vision.

  • Total masterpiece

    A total masterpiece. For the first time in several years, I watched the entire movie, and from the opening scene to the final credits, there’s not a single flaw, nothing to nitpick, nothing to scrutinize. After nearly 30 years, it’s truly astonishing that the film stands up so timelessly both as a compelling story with emotional warmth but also as a virtuosic achievement in cinematography, action and special effects. From the epic and memorable performances of Hamilton, Schwarzenegger and Furlong to the expertly chosen and designed filming locations to the mood-inducing and perfectly-complimentary soundtrack, Terminator 2: Judgment Day is a hallmark in moviemaking and touchstone in modern cinema. Still astonishing to watch after all of these years. In the summer of 1991, the sequel was truly an event. And in 2020, it’s easy to understand why the subsequent movies simply couldn’t come close to measuring up and why they were met with outright disdain from some fans. The franchise should have ended with T2. I still wonder about the potential of a James Cameron-helmed third movie in 1993 or 1994 with the trio of leading actors returning. Commercially, it likely would have been huge. The anticipation and expectations also would have been enormous. But it wasn’t meant to be. T2 undoubtedly could never be topped or even equaled. The story was complete. A moment in time never to be duplicated.

    This has been one of my favorite movies/stories since I was a child. I can't tell you how many times I have watched this masterpiece and everytime feels like the first time. Same emotions. Same passion. Same love. This cannot be beat by any others in the genre.
  • Better Than Aliens Special Edition

    This is a fantastic special edition, especially for Terminator 2 as it provides context for certain scenes. If you’ve already seen Terminator 2 then you already know it’s a great film. But you’ll find more context is given to some of the scenes, particularly to the ending, I find. But most importantly, I strongly believe the T2 special edition doesn’t ruin the film like the Aliens special edition did. Most like it, but I don’t as it includes some scenes near the beginning of the film that shifts the tone of Aliens in the wrong direction -the rest of the special edition is great, except for that scene of Newt’s parents. I bring that particular scene up, because you won’t find such a scene here. The Terminator 2 special edition is near flawless, without a similar scene weighing it down. I proudly spent $12.99 on this film and was not disappointed, and if you’re a fan of Terminator neither will you. (Because I won’t be reviewing the latest film, I want to say here that you should avoid Terminator genesis. Spend your money on better films, such as this one, the Terminator 2 Special Edition.)

    This is the movie that turned what might have been just another horror movie series into a phenomenon. It's difficult to argue that the first movie, however much I may personally love it, was little more than a particularly cleverly written slasher film. At a time when series such as A Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th were pushing out uninspired sequels, It was time for the Sci-fi horror classic The Terminator to get it's turn. To put it lightly, James Cameron delivered. Terminator 2 crosses the boundaries of horror into a gripping action/adventure film. It's dramatic, it's emotional, and it's exciting in a way the franchise has yet to top. I recommend it highly, for I do not believe you will be disappointed.
