This is the film that cemented Schwarzenegger's spot in the action-brawn firmament, and it was well deserved. He's chilling as the futuristic cyborg who kills without fear, without love, without mercy. James Cameron's story and direction are pared to the bone and all the more creepy. But don't overlook the contributions of Linda Hamilton, who more than holds her own as the Terminator's would-be victim, Sarah Connor--thus creating, along with Sigourney Weaver in Alien, a new generation of rugged, clear-thinking female action stars.
It's surprising how well this film holds up, and how its minimalist, malevolent violence is actually way scarier than that of its far more expensive, more effects-laden sequel. -- Review Anne Hurley
Enjoy this sci-fi classic in all of the glory that Blu-ray has to offer. The Terminator Blu-ray edition really brings everything into even better detail, with amazing visual and sound improvements. The Terminator will always be one of the classic sci-fi movies of all time, and whether you like the first one or the second one more, this is where the story begins. One of the iconic films of our generation, now you can bring it home at a cheap, discount price and enjoy the quality of Blu-ray at the same time. There isn't a better excuse to hunker down in front of the TV for a few hours than the Terminator Blu-ray edition.
