Terminator 2

Schwarzenegger cyborg sequel

Terminator 2 is a 1991 science fiction film directed by James Cameron, sequel to The Terminator (1984).

Arnold Schwarzenegger returns as a cyborg, this time reprogrammed to protect rather than kill.

The film was groundbreaking for its computer-generated liquid-metal effects and became one of the highest-grossing films of its era.

Often shortened to T2: T2 still holds up.
