"Almost any other action film since"Almost any other action film since. T2 still has a lot going for it, but if you've seen even a handful of sci-fi films in the last 23 years, then its not going to be the mind-blowing experience it was when new.

At the time the soundtrack, sound effects and special effects were mind blowing. Still a great movie to watch on a kick ass home theater.
I remember going to it in theaters 4-5 times it was that good.
I liked Hackers because it contained quite a few real-world things like trashing, social engineering, using manuals to get default passwords and get into systems that weren't properly set up. But then of course skateboarding sysadmin shows up with his 3D mainframe and several other glaring tech issues. But it was an enjoyable movie overall with a great sound track and a young Angelina Jolie.
The aliases used still make me cringe though, along with the "hacker fight" early in the movie and it's one liners.
You were probably being sarcastic though. At least it's not 'The Net' where the main character couldn't even be coached to say modem correctly.
Lots of movies you saw as a kid is awful when you rewatch them as adult.
Some movies age terribly--- crappy CGI or crappy & predictable storyline/twist/plot device.
However T2 is STILL fvcking great. I saw them about 5 years ago again... just as good. The special effects are still awesome.
Speaking of which, Jurassic Park rocks too.
Definitely agree. :thumbsup:
At the time this came out, some of the effects were ground-breaking.

I still remember the first time I saw Alien in the theater when it came out.Definitely agree. :thumbsup:

Dr Strangelove still one of my all time favorites.i still like it. i just watched a black and white movie recently. dr stranglove and the effects were dated as hell. i felt it held up pretty well. maybe timely considering the whole russia crimea thing also. peter sellers was amazing in the movie.
Sorry but T3+ takes the fail.
