From Amazon.co.uk

Arguably the finest movie of its kind, Terminator 2: Judgment Day captured Arnold Schwarzenegger at the very apex of his Hollywood celebrity and James Cameron at the peak of his perfectionist directorial powers. Nothing the star did subsequently measured up to his iconic performance here, spouting legendary catchphrases and wielding weaponry with unparalleled cool; and while the director had an even bigger hit with the bloated and sentimental Titanic, few followers of his career would deny that Cameron's true forte has always been sci-fi action. With an incomparably bigger budget than its 1984 precursor, T2 essentially reworks the original scenario with envelope-stretching special effects and simply more, more, more of everything. Yet, for all its scale, T2 remains at heart a classic sci-fi tale: robots running amok, time travel paradoxes and dystopian future worlds are recurrent genre themes, which are here simply revitalised by Cameron's glorious celebration of the mechanistic. From the V-twin roar of a Harley Fat Boy to the metal-crunching Steel Mill finale, the director's fascination with machines is this movie's strongest motif: it's no coincidence that the character with whom the audience identifies most strongly is a robot. Now that impressive but unengaging CGI effects have come to over-dominate sci-fi movies (think of The Phantom Menace), T2's pivotal blending of extraordinary live-action stuntwork and FX looks more and more like it will never be equalled. --Mark Walker

Product Description

In this sequel to 'The Terminator', young John Connor (Edward Furlong), the future leader of a human rebellion in a machine-dominated world, is under threat from the new T-1000 Terminator (Robert Patrick) - an improved, virtually unkillable model. The adult John sends a copy of the original Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) back in time, this time to protect the boy and his mother, Sarah (Linda Hamilton). As the battle of the behemoths begins, those on the side of good realise that they can alter the future enough to stop the slaughter on 'Judgement Day' when the computers commenced Armageddon.

Format:Blu-ray
Note that, due to space limitations, this review will contain mostly technical details.

This Blu-ray disc features all three versions of the film. There's the 137-min theatrical version, the 152-min Director's Cut, and then the 156-min Extended Special Version Director's Cut, the latter of which is accessed via the menu with the code '82997' (since Judgement Day is August 29th, 1997). If you want spoilers of what's in the extended versions, take a look here.

During the two or three times I've previously seen this film, I didn't rate it above half-marks as it was too silly, but now looking up at the widescreen image with the DTS sound blaring away in an uncut and complete print, it's all so much more inviting. Also, re-watching the content since having played so many first-person-shooters makes me realise they're emulating films like this and now I thoroughly enjoy what I once wasn't too fond of. The extra footage helps enormously in this director's cut and it's all come together perfectly.

If any film was expected to shine in HD it would be Terminator 2 and there is every reason to expect the best from this disc. From the intricate workings of Arnie's innards, to the shiny chrome look of the T-1000, the image is full of colour and is crystal clear in its 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen frame. For the record, I'm watching on a Panasonic 37" Plasma screen via a Samsung BD-P1500 Blu-ray player.

I watched the film in DTS 5.1, as I don't have any HD sound equipment and, quite frankly, my room isn't big enough for all of that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hint 12 Jan 2002
By A Customer
Format:DVD
On disc 1 when you come to the menu, type 82997 (8/29/97 Judgement day) and you get another menu which offers two deleted scenes, the alternate ending and T1000 searching johns room, I liked the alternate ending better than the original. I hope I have helped you get more from your dvd.

4.0 out of 5 stars Takes a long time to load 6 Oct 2010
Format:Blu-ray
Everyone knows about the film so I won't pass comment on it. I will say that the blu-ray picture and sound quality is excellent on the SkyNet version. I am very impressed with how punchy the colours are, sharp the edges are, and crisp the explosions are etc. Very impressive upgrade though the standard DVD was fine.

However, be aware that the BR disc takes a very long time to load, and I have a top quality Pioneer with the latest firmware. The first time I tried to load it I honestly thought the machine had crashed or the disc was incompatible and I exited the load-up. It was also disconcerting that there was a warning at the top of the loading page about not being plugged into the internet... I tried again and it was taking ages to load again. I started investigating the firware options on my player when the main menu screen finally appeared. So it does work, but it took about 4-5 minutes to load! Totally unacceptable load time - it's like travelling back in time to the ZX Spectrum - but worth it once completed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Belongs in anyones collection 26 Nov 2001
Format:DVD
James Camerons nightmares are again realised for the whole world to see. The continuing saga of a post apocalyptic world is definitely one of his biggest successes.

Some great set pieces (Linda getting chased by a tanker yet again) keep the movie going at break neck speed and the brilliant touch of the lead characters telling the story while on the run means the movie never gets bogged down in trying to explain what is going on.

The extras on the DVD a something else, with animated menus galore and deleted scenes that you wonder if they should have been deleted. Commentarys from all the main cast and the director himself make exploring the movie fun to do.
Definitely one of the all time classic movies and everyone should own.

5.0 out of 5 stars What World are some people Living on? 8 Oct 2008
Format:Blu-ray
I bought this, because i like the film and it was the extended edition, which i find far more satisfying than the theatrical edition.If it had been the theatrical edition i wouldn't have touched it.

The main principle of blu ray is better picture, better sound, which is achieved here.

If you only buy films for extras Stick with the DVD,

but if like me you just love the film ,then this is top notch.

for people to say the picture is no better than an upscaled DVD is a joke, I watched the DVD version and the picture is shocking, one of the worst DVD transfers I think I've seen, its only because I bought a bigger TV that i've come to notice these things otherwise I probably would've agreed it is no better. The sound is superb, but then again it always has been, Its a brilliantly sound designed film. and with the DVD offering a choice of sound options it is pretty hard to top.

The blu ray picture is impressive, its not perfect, but i don't think i've seen any film thats older than say 5 years that is. it is the best i've seen this film look by a long shot.

The sound is just amazing thats all i can say, it truly is ear orgasm material, it is an improvment over the DVD , alot cleaner and more thump to it. my only complaint is there isn't a 6.1 or 7.1 channel.

As for Extras, is i previously stated, i bought this because of the film, i've seen enough making of's special effect specials, script comparisons etc over time. i don't think there is anything that hasn't been said already, and is there much left unsaid? i very much Doubt it.

Did not expect to have to look out for this when buying in the UK - can only be viewed on US area code devices. Company are very nice about offering a refund, but it is a pain.
