THE TERMINATOR (1984) - May 20, 2009 (Second or Third Viewing)
A superlative action film. About Sarah Connor, a woman from the present who must contend with a cyborg from the future who is out to kill her. This has justifiably become known as a classic in the genre; aside from the dated synthesizer score, the film has aged quite well, and it's easy enough to see why it launched James Cameron's career. The direction is pretty much perfect, and the film does a really good job of blending the action and the more character-driven stuff with Sarah Connor and Kyle Reese. ***1/2
