Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines Movie Review


Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines Movie Review

Ok, so here's the review for the 3rd Terminator in the famous trilogy as part of the lead up toward the release of Terminator Salvation. It follows the path laid down from James Cameron. Now, unlike alot of people of I found this movie to be quite entertaining. Now for any of us to really think it was going to be as good as the previous two. Well, now come on. And to follow T2. Which is probably in the top 10 greatest action movies ever. It centers on John Connor and his continued escape from a new Terminator. Who happens to be a extremely hot female actress named Kristanna Loken as the T-X. Which is essentially the T-1000 Terminator that Robert Patrick made famous souped up. And we have Arnold reprising his famous role of The Terminator this time as the protecter of John Connor like the previous one. Now, I found this Terminator to not be as deep as the previous ones however, it was a damn good action movie. And it did have several interesting points. Like the fact that Judgement Day did not get stopped. And the introduction of Katherine Brewster who will appear in the next film. And I find Nick Stahl to be light years a better actor that Edward Furlong ever thought of being. Now some of the action in this movie played a little too much like a 80's action movie but, thats ok consider The Terminator is a product of the 80's to begin with. Anyway, some of the effects were very good and the director opted for some old school effects in alot of places where CGI would have taken over. And frankly thats a good thing. There is too much CGI in movies these days. There was never a way for this to match T2. It wasn't going to happen. But, I think some of dirt this movie takes is from fanboys frankly. Some of the things I've read around the net is about oh they didn't match this right with this etc. Jesus, if your breaking shit down to that point. Just keep watching Harry Potter movies. Because you have no business venturing outside of your apartment. Really? Anyway, sorry. Claire Danes is always solid. Arnold continues his nice one liners making any actual Arnold fan happy. Now, I have a issue. I am sorry but, I would have rather seen a bad ass action star play the other Terminator. Anyway, this is a extremely enjoyable popcorn action movie that leads us down a solid path that would be Terminator Salvation. And the ending was tremendous with Judgement Day actually happening. It was frankly unexpected and that made it great. I give this 4.0 out of 5 axes. And is of course a must own.
