  • Reviews

    "As for Schwarzenegger, he nicely fleshes out the convention of a soulless gun for hire. With his choppy hair, cryptic shades and state-of-the-'80s leather ensemble, he looks like the Incredible Hulk gone punk." — Richard Corliss TIME Magazine http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,927023,00.html

    "As a souvenir of a kind of B-grade action cinema that has all but vanished, The Terminator should find a small place in the heart of every movie addict." — Dave Kehr Chicago Reader http://onfilm.chicagoreader.com/movies/capsules/8141_TERMINATOR
