Robot apocalypse? Nuclear holocaust? Self-aware AI turning on its creator? Short of climate change, few films from the 1990s capture the full breadth of our moment's existential anxiety like T2. Cyborg Schwarzenegger and fierce mother Linda Hamilton join forces against a seemingly indestructible machine to keep her son alive long enough to save the world. From James Cameron, the director of Titanic and Avatar, comes the film that revolutionized how CGI is used in movies and gave us some of the most quotable lines and iconic action sequences in cinematic history.

D: James Cameron, US, 1991, 2h33m
