Stupid newbies need the most attention.
This was my first R-rated movie. It was awesome to me as a kid back then, and it still holds up today not only for nostalgic value, but as a really solid action flick. This new cut is definitely an improvement over the theatrical and the effects haven't aged one bit in the past 15 years.

PROS:
- Extra scenes add a bit of neat depth to the film
- DVD commentary from James Cameron and William Wisher is usually very interesting.
- Arnold Schwarzenegger's best non-cheezy performance
- Just an overall solid action/sci-fi movie

CONS:
- William Wisher will be about to make a great point on the commentary and then James Cameron will butt in with something useless to say.
- The scenes in the desert still drag a bit

OVERALL:
- 5.5
- A very solid action sci-fi movie and one of the best I've seen in either genre.
