james cameron's celebrated follow up to his 1984 creature-feature is regarded by many to be an example of a sequel bettering its original. i personally dont agree with that notion, but it is a great showcase of the evolution of character. sarah connor, potrayed by linda hamilton, is the real focus point of interest in this film as far as im concerned. the way in which the character has developed between pictures is genuinely interesting, but believable all the same. technically the film was a huge leap between the two, with the gritty future hinted at in the first film developed more fully in a brilliantly realised opening sequence. the development of arnold schwarzenegger's terminator from monster to hero works much better than one would expect, especially in the face of the the genuine terror that is robert patrick's T-1000, truly one of the great film villains of the late 20th century.
