Crazy Year - 1995

The American film circle in 1995 was really turbulent. If you want to say that the acting skills were better than the golden man, it would be Tom Hanks in "Forrest Gump" or "The Shawshank Redemption" and starring Tim Robbins. But to say who had the most box-office appeal back then, and who the investors were willing to spend the most money on, it must be Arnold Schwarzenegger, the bodybuilding champion with thicker arms than others and a superstar on the screen. Tough guy, a legend in the film industry. In 1995, he had become a household name in the United States with the huge box office success of many films, including the "Terminator" series, "Devil Commander", "Dragon Brother Mouse" and so on. His films are not the best. Yes, but definitely the best seller.

In addition, we have to talk about the big director-James Cameron. He is the most famous director of burning money in Hollywood. He frantically pursues visual effects. The speed of spending money often makes investors panic and complain, but At the same time, he has repeatedly created box office myths. With these two partners, the producer made all the money and madly poured in more than 100 million US dollars to create the first super blockbuster in Hollywood history with an investment of over 100 million. And the reflection after the release did not disappoint investors and made a lot of money.

Since it is not the first time that James Cameron and Schwarzenegger have cooperated, the two cooperations in "Terminator" have already made the two people have a certain tacit understanding, and Cameron has used unprecedented in the film. Many visual special effects productions, the crew actually put together a U.S. Marine Corps Sea Harrier fighter plane, around this plane to make the thrilling battle at the end of the film. Arnold Schwarzenegger is transformed into a "Rambo"-style super agent in the film. He can kill opponents in seconds in close combat. He can use any firearms, weapons or even planes. His developed muscles impact the audience's eyeballs. The detonation of the nuclear bomb and the dispatch of fighter jets to intercept terrorists make the film full of shock.

And the heroine in the film, hilariously, always thinks that her husband is just an insurance seller. When he was amazed at his husband's near-superhuman means, he discovered one - a true lie.

Quite an intense movie. It is also one of the few American blockbusters introduced by our country that year. Good movie! ! !
