Very good film in its own right, but for me the 1st was better. Yes I know this had the better special effects but there was just a few to many holes in the plot for me.
For example. We are led to believe that had the 1st terminator not gone back and left the chip and arm then there would be no terminators. Is this not a paradox. Also we are told the T2000 cannot mimick inanimate objects yet at one points it is a floor.
For me the film just tried to be too clever very much like the matrix sequels and as such made it a little less enjoyable but for special effects and loyalty to the series I have still rated it as a good film.

I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, which can be done by accessing "edit review" above the review and changing the drop down menu under the "Which format are you reviewing?" question at the bottom, please let me know and I'll re-rate.
