For anybody not old enough to have seen that movie, go see Terminator, and then Terminator 2, and then stop.
You are missing out.
I also recommend the Netflix anime, Terminator Zero. It's made by Production IG, the people behind Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex and SkyDance, and does a great job of being its own thing while being respectful of the first two movies.
I second this recommendation, solid series and it does do a great job of being faithful to the setting instead of just using it as a veneer for some other type of story.
The TV series from the mid-2000s was actually pretty decent, but it was canceled like 2 seasons in and never finished its story.
But yeah, T2 isn't gonna be topped. I think it is a strong contender for best action film of all time.
Aliens would like a word...
I literally typed that Aliens was the other major contender at the bottom ofnthe comment, then deleted before posting because I didn't want to be too fanboyish about James Cameron.
But.... yeah. Dude can make an action flick. Heck - the Avatar movies didn't change the world with their messaging, but dammit if the action scenes aren't jaw-dropping.
