| Favourite line: | "Come with me if you want to live." |
Simply brilliant.
Claustrophobic, intense, taut, lean, not a moment or line wasted, and just trimmed to perfection.
Arnie is perfectly cast as THE bad guy of the eighties, the eponymous Terminator, and Michael Biehns intensity as the hero trying to save the day really adds to the mix.
A great story line, and decent if dated effects, this is a must see.
