A film

My movie -I mean it- is Terminator 2: Judgment Day.

The movie is the second part of a history about the wolrd’s end because the final judgment day. A North American company created a new technology who, after, was used by the military forces of USA; but one day this new developed programs and technology reached an autonomy which begun a conflict among humans and machines to have the control of the opponent and the existence. The story line, which is about science fiction and a typical North American movie of action and explosion, is basically an expression about the paradoxes modernity: in terms of alienation, of can it be -at extreme- the subordination of the human to the machine.

I like the movie because, contrary the opinion of a lot of people, is not only a movie of action made it fast. Out of the central problem who it illustrates about modernity, the film has an excellent photography and music. It is not a surprise that it is a classic.

The director was James Cameron. However, he is not so remembered: his last-name is not an idea that is around the collective imaginary of the film. Who reached fame, at contrary, was Arnold Schwarzenegger, who starred a robot of the future. Is he a good actor? I don´t think so, but almost we can say he was made to this movie.

He starred a robot who travel to past to save the main character, John Connor, from other robot who also traveled, but to kill him. Then, the film will be about a constant fight to change the present to build another future: or the machine´s domination over human, or the human emancipation to have another opportunity.

  1. yeah... T2 it's a classic... an awesome plot, an awesome crew and an awesome production.

    but... Cameron is not so remembered? I disagree... he directed one of the Alien's saga... the pretty bored but a popular blockbuster Titanic... and the most recent one "Avatar"... that is an almost full CGI movie which I wait it to see on 3D.
