Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)

I wasn't a big fan of T2 at release and revisiting it now after not seeing it for about 15 years hasn't changed that. The kid, the awkward action-mom role, the softening of Arnie’s Terminator and the lack of menace from the pursuing T1000 are even more apparent to me now than they were back in the day.
Most of the additional scenes in the 'Ultimate Edition,' thankfully documented in the accompanying booklet, aren't very interesting.
In its favour, Arnie’s shotgun reloading technique is excellent and the percussion heavy music is as effective as it always was.
It was surprising to see the surrogate father figure aspect not overplayed, because, as we all surely know, Cameron isn't known for his restraint.
