To each his own, but I cannot believe there are so many positive reviews for this movie. Doesn't anybody care that underneath the action and special effects there was nothing going on in this movie??? From Hollywood that's nothing new, but I thought Terminator fans had grown to expect more than that from these films. You can blow up as many things as you want, if I don't care about the characters on the screen than it's pointless.
Look, the action scenes are nothing short of breath taking. Probably some of the best ever captured on film. That's about all the movie has going for it. The so-called story contradicts rules and plot points made in the first two films. There's never even a logical explanation of why T3 even occurs. Every time someone's about to explain that, or something else of importance, they either end it with a one liner or someone interrupts them. Lazy screenwriting. I don't mind them changing the theme of the movie, too bad they didn't change anything else. This is T2 with a woman and no subtext. The subtitle was fitting since like a machine, the movie was cold and emotionless. The humanity the was stressed in T2 is completely missing. Those of you calling this the best in the series need to rewatch the second film. Why is it nowdays that the minute a budget goes over $100 million, all semblance of originality, character development, and logical thought goes with it?
This is not a Terminator film. This is a very expensive fan film that almost parodies its predecessors. Like Friday the 13th or Halloween, they turn the character into a cartoon. They actually make a fool of the Terminator. You laugh AT him. Way too much humor that just doesn't work.
Before seeing this movie I thought T2 had wrapped everything up and there was no need for a third. After seeing it, I KNOW there was no need for it. The only thing it was successful at was showing me what a skilled director Cameron is. This is crap, folks. I can't be nice about it. It was just a bad, bad movie that played its audience for idiots. The last line is a slap in the face. It's an insult to the intelligence of movie-goers.
Everbody complains about the state of the movie industry. Then everyone fills these boards with positive reviews of crap like this. Only reassuring Hollywood they're making the right decisions. T3 may be bigger, louder, and faster than the first two but it's also a lot dumber. You can put the body of a ferrari on top of a Toyota, but just bc it looks good doesn't mean its worth getting into.
And Arnold clearly needs Cameron to bring out the actor in him. Thanks for ruining the Terminator guys. One more thing I loved that Hollywood's 'Nothing Sacred' attitude has ruined.
