Good.........But Horrible

3 stars

13 Sep 2019

As the title of this review suggests, this movie is great, but also horrible. Basically, The Terminator is about a cyborg assassin that goes back in time to kill someone, but a human from is time also goes back in time, but instead of trying to kill someone, he's there to protect the person the Terminator is trying to kill. For it's time, the animation, acting, special effects etc. are pretty good, but I find the plot pretty lacking with some horrible gaping holes in it. All in all, if you like science-fictiony, post-apocalypticy stuff, then you might like it, but for me the plot is just a bit weak.
