YesAsia Editorial Description

James Cameron's THE TERMINATOR is one of the tightest, tensest sci-fi films ever made and a landmark in the genre. In the year 2029, battles rage between the superintelligent machines that rule the world and the last vestiges of humanity. In late-20th-century Los Angeles, Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) suddenly finds herself stalked by an unstoppable killing machine--a Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) sent from the future to kill her and her unconceived son, John Connor, the future leader of the human resistance. Sarah can rely only on Reese (Michael Biehn), a soldier sent from the future to protect her from the seemingly indestructible Terminator and save humanity. This low-budget masterpiece was the breakthrough film for director Cameron, who weds special effects, thrills, and understated romance to create one of the finest action films of the 1980s, which spawned many imitations but few equals. Science fiction author Harlan Ellison sued over the film's similarities to his own works, especially the OUTER LIMITS episode "Demon with a Glass Hand," and won acknowledgement in the film's credits. Schwarzenegger will forever be known as the relentless Terminator, a heartless killing machine who returns (in a kinder, gentler form) in 1991's TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY.

"...A B-movie with flair....Set forth engrossingly by [Hamilton and Biehn]..." - Janet, Maslin (New York Times Critic), New York Times, 10/26/1984

"...A blazing, cinematic comic book, full of virtuous moviemaking, terrific momentum, solid performances from the three leads, and a compelling story..." - Loyn. (Variety Film Critic), Variety, 10/31/1984

"...Kineticism and suspense, combined with strongly conceived characters....Made [Cameron] a talent to watch..." -- Rating: A- - Glenn, Kenny (Premiere/Entertainment Weekly Critic), Entertainment Weekly, 01/13/1995

"...A nerve-bludgeoning, relentlessly exciting action movie masterpiece..." - Ceri, Thomas (Total Film Critic), Total Film, 04/01/2001

"A model of economic storytelling....[It] raised the bar for movie action to a bionic level." - Premiere Staff (Premiere Staff), Premiere, 12/01/2003

"[It] has a seriousness and depth of feeling that belie initial expectations." - Matthew, Leyland (Film Critic), Sight and Sound, 12/01/2005

OK Film Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
The Terminator was a low -budget movie.Nobody thought it was going to be a huge hit back then and now.When I first saw it (during vhs tape days) i thought it was very violent,scary,sometimes sadistic, yet a solid action picture.When I saw it again on dvd the experience was different.The whole feel of the film was somehow toned down and it was not the same experience when I used to watch it on vhs tape.But the dvd version is still ok.

The best thing about it is that it has a very good documentary on how the film was made plus deleted scenes lots of still galaries and much more.
