Terminator Review

It's a pretty decent action flick with lots of splosions and fx. Story is full of wholes but it was entertaining and fun. Better than T3 IMO.

Without spoiling it, I will tell you that there is a "cameo" that is the most jaw dropping special effect ever. A true double take moment. It was flawless. I really couldn't tell that I wasn't looking at something that wasn't real. It was only my outside knowledge of reality that made me realize this was not real. However, it someone were to watch all the T-movies is a row and having no knowledge of the when they were made or who played the characters, I bet they couldn't tell it wasn't real.

I agree it was a good movie, yes full of holes. But the cameo was pretty cool. I am a big fan of the movies this was not the best but it did have some pretty cool parts:gj:

I liked it also. I was not a big fan of T3 at all (just watched all 3 of them again this weekend). I think the first is still my favorite, but this last one was pretty good.

Dear got T3 was painful for me to watch.. I'm really hoping I'll like this one better, and from the sounds of it, it's at least fun and full of explosions, which is all I ask for.

The first one is a classic and pretty hard to top although the second one was nearly as good I agree T3 wasn't very good but this one I thought was awesome, yeah there were some holes in it but pretty much every movie in a trilogy or greater has many.

Overall I would say Christian Bale was awesome and Sam Worthington was awesome as well. I would recommend everyone going to see this movie and that cameo was AWESOME!

Sam worthington played a great part :salute:

The main plot was more about the Marcus character. I went in thinking it was all about Connor but Connor was really a supporting role. Of all the characters in the movie, I actually gave a crap about him.

The original end was for Connor to die and then his face would be grafted on to Marcus so that John Connor could fulfill his role as prophet. I am glad they changed that.

Yeah, Connor was supposed to have an even smaller role but Christian Bale forced them to edit the script or he wouldn't do the movie.

I was wondering about that. It seemed that the other character had a lot more sceen time. Which was fine by me.

I wasn't impressed. The CGI was nice, but the overall plot was weak. I thought I was watching Transformers for a minute there during the Tow truck chase scene.

Now, if they combined the budget and CGI animators of this movie, used the writers from The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and got James Cameron to direct it - that product would have been amazing.

Oh man, I didn't care much for this one. I love all Terminators including T3! I even have an okay liking for the TV series.

But man, this one didn't appeal to me. Mainly because of the MCG directing - it's always tough to sit through 2 hours of MCG making everything swim like a music video. My stomach starts complaining after the first 30 minutes. And then there's Kate who was like a fish out of water. Everybody looked gritty and post-nuclear - even Moon... while Kate looks like a China Doll with full make-up. I just can't buy red lipstick and thick mascara when John Connor can't even clean his nails. I can't talk about the plot confusion without giving away the story...

I have to say though, the fx was awesome, and that cameo was flawless. So yeah, A-one on that.

I thought the move was terrible. The CGC was not what I expected, the plot sucked, the "cameo" was OK I guess, but all in all I was dissapointed. I was really looking forward to this flick too. Its just the first in a trilogy, so hopefully it picks up. I want to see war like in all of the future flashbacks!

i saw it opening day....awesome!! Especially the cameo lol That was epic
