I think when "Why do you cry?" was uttered by a once-homicidal robot it lost all the punk credibility that the first one had.   By comparison T2 is a Hollywood clip-job.

While the original was an excellent first effort, especially considering the limited budget, the follow up was a masterpiece with Linda Hamilton just rockin' the Sarah Connor role.

The 1st one, where the concept is fresh. The 2nd adds to the paradoxical aspect of time travel, I like that. All of them entertained me to a variable (always decreasing) degree, but please don't ask for consistency!

No film will ever match or recreate the cruelly raw vision of the first.   It was the flick that gave sci-fi to unwashed derelicts everywhere.   No small achievement.

Time travel hey? What a minefield of paradox.

For me the last one is just awful. Its attempts to be politically correct and "woke" (not that there's anything inherently wrong with those things) seemed to take precedent over the story and it really just becomes a rambling mess. A shame considering it featured the return of Linda Hamilton.

It is the only one of the series that I have only watched once and I don't have any desire to revisit it any time in the future, unless a terminator comes back and forces me to.

Wasn't it already impossible for what'shisname to have fathered (young oik) what'shisname, in the first one?....

There had been created some "The Terminator" polls, but this hexology is/can be the first.

The first two movies are classics. The rest of the films is pretty dispensable.

Defiantly between 1 & 2. I went with the first one because it blew my mind the first time I saw it.
