Editorial Review:

Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 01/08/2008 Run time: 21 minutes Rating: R
After he pushed the envelope of computer-generated special effects in The Abyss, director James Cameron turned this hotly anticipated sequel to Terminator into a well-written, action-packed showcase for advanced special effects and for one of the most invincible villains ever imagined. Terminator 2: Judgment Day is a legitimate sequel: there's more story to tell about a hulking, leather-clad android (Arnold Schwarzenegger) who arrives from the future to protect a rebellious teenager and future leader (Edward Furlong) from being killed by the tenacious T-1000 robot (Robert Patrick), whose liquid-metal construction makes him seemingly unstoppable. The fate of the future lies in the balance, with Linda Hamilton (who would later marry her director) reprising her role as the rugged woman whose son will change the course of history. --Jeff Shannon

The Best Arnold Movie:

I think this is the best of all of Arnold's movies. It was directed by James Cameron (director of the Titanic) who's known to be a perfectionist and it shows. The dialogue and action sequences are sharp, and the movie benefits from the Blu-ray upgrade. The only downfall of the movie is that it suffers from the unkillable bad guy. Every time you think he's dead he comes back to life. That is forgivable, however, because it is a common thread to scary/action type movies.

Not as Good as I Remembered It:

When the "Sarah Conners Chronicles" began, my girlfriend became an ardent fan. Then I discovered she had never seen the Terminator movies, and thus didn't really understand how it all fit together. And I was, like, how did THAT happen? So we watched the SD copy of "The Terminator" I had in my library, and we liked it. It was fresh then, and it's still the one that started this whole big-budget sci-fi-action genre, and it made Schwarznegger a star. Then I bought "Terminator 2" in Blu-ray, because it was so... more info

WAIT! Don't. Buy. It. YET!:

I purchased this Blu-ray recently and found it to be a waste of money. YES, TERMINATOR 2 is unspeakably awesome; YES, TERMINATOR 2 on Blu-ray is a good thing...BUT NOT THIS VERSION.
For one, it's THEATRICAL CUT ONLY!
Second, this version is EXTREMELY BARE BONES: it's just the movie and 2 commentary tracks (one from 1993, the other from 2003) and THAT'S IT. For a movie with so much technical precision and BTS material found on previous releases, this is a GRIEVOUS oversight.
Third (and final),... more info

A Blu-ray review:

If your a fan of this movie series you might want to get this, however its only marginally better definition then the dvd (especially if you have an upconvert dvd player). This blu-ray does not have the special features available on some of the special edition dvds. So basicly you give up some nice special features for a marginal increase in definiton. If its about 10 dollars or so, or if they rerelease it with special features and improved definition then it would be worth it otherwise just stick with the... more info
