1. Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1992)

《终结者2：审判日》（1992）

James Cameron's deafening¹ chef-d'oeuvre is the creative peak of late-20th century muscle cinema: the film firebombs you with spectacle, noise and excitement. Arnold Schwarzenegger, returning as a time-travelling cyborg, is elevated from hero to icon².

詹姆斯•卡梅隆的这部作品名声震耳欲聋，是20世纪末硬汉电影的创作高峰。片中视觉奇观和激动人心的剧情让你热血沸腾。阿诺•施瓦辛格以半机器时间旅行者的形象回归，这个人物已经从英雄角色升华为一代偶像。

2. Fast Five (2011)

《速度与激情5》（2011）

Who'd have guessed that summer 2000's hotrod caper³ flick⁴ would push up to 8 installments⁵? It's getting too big for its boots, actually, as the ever-expanding roster⁶ of guest stars shoves the running times up and the bombast⁷ through the roof. Justin Lin floored it nicely with 2009's Fast & Furious, but it's the next one that hit a series-high sweet spot.

谁能想到2000年夏季上映的大马力改装车犯罪电影《速度与激情》能够拍到第8部？事实上，该片的摊子铺得过大，越来越多客串巨星挤占飙车场面，内容浮夸空洞。2009年林诣彬导演的《速度与激情4》很好地解决了这个问题，但接下来的《速5》才将该系列电影推向高潮。
