Much Better than T2


This movie is way better than the overrated irritating sentimental mishmash Terminator 2. I found this more credible movie that was more interesting with better action sequences. Van Damme and Lundegren were great as expected from stars like them.

I hate T2 - it doesn't offer anything new plotwise, and what new it offers, is just gimmicky, boring, superficial glitter at best, and childish, cringeworthy, predictable crap most of the time.

Some skinny guy with big ears slightly tilting his head towards camera is _NOT_ scary. Arnold at his prime walking towards you shamelessly naked, asking for your clothes and saying 'nice night for a walk' without emotion _IS_ scary. A massive bodybuilder frame slowly getting up after being shot at with a shotgun multiple times (after it brutally murdered a bunch of people) _IS_ scary.

T2 is just a 'watered-down', 'child-friendly', 'family-oriented', sentimental and boring rehash of the only GOOD Terminator movie, 'The Terminator (1984)'.

However, even _I_ think Terminator 2:Judgment Day is better than this faulty movie based on a really idiotic premise (you can't 'revive the dead' no matter how much you freeze them or inject stuff into them, and even if you somehow could re-animate those dead corpses, they wouldn't have any 'memories' or 'habits' or functionality of any kind that you don't specifically give them. The reason is, body and soul are separate things, and once soul leaves body, the corpse starts rotting immediately - the soul is the only thing keeping it alive, and memories are stored in the soul, not in the body. The body is never -truly- alive, the soul only makes it seem that way. And humans never really die, because it's only the body that dies (or stops seeming to be alive)).

This movie is as predictable, straight-forward, and boring as it gets, and even the action is not as good as you should be able to expect from this particular duo.

There are good Damme movies (No Retreat, No Surrender) and good Dolph movies (Rocky IV), but this is not it.

I would rather suffer through the 'Edward Furlong acting' rehash crap than this movie. The only saving grace is how well Dolph plays a totally crazy guy (very believably, in fact!), but that's not enough.
