Is this a repeat? Really, stripping off the special effects and budget, this film is a copy from the original Terminator. I saw a programme where Cameron explained that Arnie's set trailer cost more than the first film and realised where this film relies on: budget. The first had an excellent plot and this was ripped off in the second, OK, first copy: the first scene when the Terminator arrives, secondly, the factory and the steel plant at the end of both films, eg. a scramble for survival etc. The plot is also tacky and relies heavily on the tracks made by the first, eg. when the chip and arm were left in the factory the film finishes and then in the second, we see that Cyberdine own the arm and chip, this was not explained in either of the films and we as an audience are left to presume that the factory at the end of the first was Cyberdine, not shown recently until the DVD came out with deleted footage. There are also several plot disturbances, one of them being that Sarah was a young, average girl next door, then immediately we see in the second that she is streetwise, knows how to use guns, is tough and in Pescadero mental home where as at the end of the first she drove off into the sunset happily. So, all in all, I thought that T2 was a not so cheap cash-in and OTT. 4/10
