There are many elements in Cameron’s script that help turn ...
...doesn’t direct the Terminator to do anything too over the top. The stare is exactly what it is supposed to be, cold and methodical. One may think that this is one of those campy elements, but anyone who sees the stupendous work done with the character will become a believer. Scenes like the Terminator repairing damaged parts after vicious gun battles may not seem like much, until one realises that all this thing has to do to heal itself is a quick ... Read review
