That's the second part of the film series directed by James Cameron. Frankly speaking, I thought that it must have been worse than the first one as it was a sequel. But I should say no: "Terminator 2" turned out even more interesting and exciting. The plot, characters, music, visual effects (that were and still are not bad) - everything was on the high level.
Arnold Schwarzenegger as The Terminator seemed more human and emotional than in the first part and it gladdened. But that time it was the T-1000 performed by Robert Patrick who looked like a complete machine. Linda Hamilton in the role of Sarah Connor became more cruel and pitiless: was is an advantage or a disadvantage - hard to say. And I couldn't not mention Edward Furlong whose character John Connor charmed from the beginning.
