Some Of The Best Films From The Incredible Director, James Cameron

By Alex Gordon

There is little argument that James Cameron is one of the greatest minds, if not the greatest, behind the lens in Hollywood today. It seems that every film Cameron comes out with is revolutionary in its own way. He is never afraid to break new barriers and try things that have never been tried before.

When discussing his greatest movies, though, it is tough to choose. Here are some of my favorites.

Aliens is one movie that definitely makes the cut for me. I had only seen this movie recently, after going through an Alien marathon, but I can safely say that this was my favorite one. The original film is great, but Sigourney Weaver and company pull out all the stops in this one.

Another awesome film brought to us from the mind of James Cameron was True Lies. If you are looking for an incredible 1990s action film, then look no further. This movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis is as good as it gets.

Another amazing James Cameron film is Titanic. Aside from its financial successes, this movie had some revolutionary CGI in it. The one scene in particular that comes to mind is the part where the boat is faced right side up and everyone is falling off. This is computer animated, but it is really hard to tell.

Of course, no list of Cameron films would be complete without mentioning his true masterpiece, Avatar. This is as good as action and adventure films can be. Avatar was absolutely revolutionary in so many ways, and it came as little surprise to many that it usurped Titanic as the number one box office film of all time.

People have their differences in opinion, but for me, it never got better than the original Terminator film. Kyle Reese goes back in time in this 1984 classic to save Sarah Connor from an evil Terminator sent to kill her, played by none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger.

These are just some of the best James Cameron movies. Anything he has put out is worth seeing. - 40728
