This is one of the few sequels that is actually almost as good as the first movie. They did everything right. (The fourth is great, too. If only they wouldn't have ruined their track record with the third...ick). This movie is about the second time Skynet sends a Terminator back, this time to kill John himself, when he is a kid. This time Sarah is in a mental facility because she tried to blow up Cyberdyne and she goes on rants about how the Terminators are going to come get us all. Also, this time, unlike the last time, the humans send back a Terminator to protect John, the same model as the one that was sent back to kill Sarah the first time. This Terminator (T-100) finds John just in time to save him from the T-1000, which is made out of liquid metal and can form himself into any person he's come into contact with...just peachy. John and the T-100 save Sarah from the mental facility, which of course freaks her out, because the Terminator that tried to kill her shows up with her son and says, "Come with me if you want to live". (which, along with "I'll be back" is one of the most famous lines from the first movie, said by Kyle). They barely escape from the T-1000 again and head for Mexico. But Sarah decides to change the future and kill the man most responsible for Skynet, Miles Dyson. When she can't do this, and John saves her again, they bring Dyson in on the plan and they all head to Cyberdyne Systems to take care of his research. But of course, since this is Terminator, nothing goes right and lots of explosions and gunshots follow...that's where it gets really good! Pay attention to Edward Furlong as John Connor. This was his very first movie.
