| rocketpig said: The first movie wasn't a monstrous blockbuster like the second was and it flew under the radar somewhat... and, unfortunately, even "critics" can get wrapped up in visual whiz-bangery, which they did with T2 (I distinctly remember almost every article about the movie being nearly orgasmic over ILM's "liquid metal" effects). |
The Romanian film 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days wasn't a monstrous blockbuster either, yet it recieved monstrous critical acclaim. The fact that The Terminator wasn't as big of a blockbuster as T2 doesn't exccuse the fact that critics liked it less.
