Review – Terminator 2: Judgment Day

Arnold’s back, only this time he’s a good-guy robot assassin assigned to protect the boy he was trying to subject to a little pre-natal murder in the first one. The sequel’s longer, but its bigger budget helps make the action scenes a little more impressive (especially the cool dream sequence where Los Angeles gets nuked). A little sappy at the end (okay, why is it wrong to kill people? It’s a question that’s posed several times but never concretely answered), but otherwise an enjoyable diversion. I recommend seeking out the special edition; the extra footage isn’t spectacular stuff, but the added character development does help a little. Worth seeing
