Too much mayhem with little emotional connection. Not a patch on the first Terminator or even Terminator 2.
This is Terminator for tweens. No blood. No swearing. No good.
You have to remember that this movie begins where number 3 ended, which we all know could have been much better. Saying that, this movie is amazing. There are no wasted moments and no stupid one liners. Enjoy it in he theaters.
Great action film, just what the doctor ordered!
I don't see the problem, the first terminator was stupid, the second was irritating and the third was annoying but all watchable. Atleast they got rid of the the whiny John Connor and got someone atleast decent as an actor. It's true that in some places I did feel like I was watching Transformers. But I like that movie too. Go re watch the old Terminators and then watch this one, it is better.
Fast-paced and different from previous films. A little cheesy and complicated, but decent for a recommendation.
If I could give this movie 100 star I would it's so cool lots of action people go watch it. 5/5 stars :)
Total Garbage...No Story...Poor acting...silly CGI. Note to the makers of this dud: filling the screen with noise and mediocre CGI does not make for a good movie.
ugh! no stars.
Go away, Chritian Bail. This movie was bad, in all the wrong ways.
Well done! hope to see Arni on the next 1...
Bit better than Wolverine but not as good as Star Trek, nobody can beat James Cameron, MCG you suck, you are like that Quantum of Solace director, Marc something, horrible movie, 2 robotic thumbs down.
If you're looking for action. It's here. If you're looking for a plot, look somewhere else. I wanted action and I got action. Great movie. 5/5
I miss T1 and T2, this is better than T3 but not even close to T1 or T2. James Cameron, please write and direct the next one, and use Sam Worthington as your new terminator.
If only there was a evil Terminator throughout this film chasing and hunting down Connor and the resistance, cameo at end was too little too late. More Terminator screen time please, the franchise is called Terminator for a reason, not John Connor or Protector, gosh, I want to see a killer robot kill ppl with special effects, fail.
What made Terminator 1 and 2 work so well was very simple. You have a protector, protecting a female and then you have the terminator trying to kill. This would have been a better film if they went with that simple formula instead of creating the advertures of Batman I mean John Connor. T2 still rules, despite being made nearly 18 years ago. What are they going to do next, tell the story of how liquid metal comes into existance? lol This is attack of the clones of the Terminator Franchise, Blu Ray it.
the best film of the year
You know what, maybe all the bad reviews lowered my expectations but I thought this was a pretty good action movie. Call me crazy, but I don't mind having to suspend disbelief in a SCIENCE FICTION movie. Great action ......
Fiction right, lets hope! The story had to be tied to the original, so get over the way the plot unfolds. Its not a book. Its still is unwritten as to the details on how we get back to the beginning. The acting was Ok and the connection with the originals was good. The time travel importance is unknown to all but Conner & wife, so Kyle's importance has not yet come into light to the rest.If the destruction from explosions overwhelmed a few, go see a chick flick maybe "Sex in the City", you whooooses.A must see to get to T5.
Worst film in the series...when Bale jumps from a helicopter into the ocean to enter a submerged submarine, you won't be able to stop laughing...the good news is that the film did poorly opening weekend, so we won't have to sit through another bad terminator movie in the future.
One word. INTENSE!
I gave this movie a 3 star because as much as I loved the terminator franchise, I did not enjoy this movie as much as I thought I would. I think the script was put together in about an hour and was very predictable, ofcourse it leaves itself open for even many more bad movies to come. I say just end the story with an epic movie we'd all love and enjoy!
Haters please go away!!! I loved this movie, should be the best summer movie ever!
What are you people expecting? this is a solid 5 star movie! Don't complain too much, let see what you could do if you were the director or actor
This one is a major disappointment and I would not recommend it, even for the action and special effects.
3 stars it was ok but not that great. I was entertained but I would not watch it again.
The story line is preposterous. There are of course no guards at the machine's headquarters and its easy to land a helicopter right in the middle of it. I guess the machine's were too busy to bother with guards. The "plan" is to allow connor and his father to meet together and then kill them. Of course the machines kept saving them all over the place because they want to kill them! The action scenes are great but what's with this need to make whole parts of the movie some weird color of brown? It made the movie look cheap and washed out. Since when can you cause an atomic explosion just by blowing up convential weapons, a tiny one at that? Never could happen, another moronic idea in th
Solid plot, amazing CG. Really cool action movie of the year!
The Terminator franchise is bigger than people think..After Terminator 2 released, there was a lot of high expectation for the remaining movies coming in the future..I don`t think they really met that expectation..This movie was had a thin story line, Christian Bale was yelling thru the entire movie..It was War of the worlds and Transformers put together in some seems..So I wasn`t too impressed, but there was action throughtout..
what a terrible terrible movie. I mean just - WOW! The people who made this movie should NEVER have been allowed to associate themselves with anything to do with the Terminator "universe". They RUINED it!!! And i'm a fan of Bale, but NOOOOOOO. Bad choice for John Conner. But above all else, the PLOT/STORY for this movie sucked so much freaking manure, it's unreal! Don't waste your time people... AND QUIT IT WITH THE 50% AT 5 STARS ON THIS WEBSITE FOR THIS MOVIE - that's ridiculous...
Awesome movie, alot of the original themes were mixed in, can't wait for the 5th one that's supposed to come out 2011/2012
Awesome movie,
Are you guys kidding me. If you like the terminator movies, something's wrong with you if you don't like this movie. It's unreal. Don't believe that bad reviews. Great acting, great story, stays true to the series, do yourself a favor and see it.
I was very impressed on how well they kept with the original plot, and I enjoyed how phrases from the first film were thrown in. Im huge Terminator fan, and still am. Hopefully in a few more years we will see a 5th installment
Better than I expected. Action-packed.
If people go in with HUGE expectations, then it might disappoint you at the end. This is always what happens when the company releases too much cool info regard to the movie before its openings! Overall, it is a highly recommended 5 STARS from me! Loved the special effects in beginning, however the ending was kinda of bad, but joyful throughout the whole movie.
A great addition to the franchise. A lot of things in this movie were worth the price of admission. An excellent job.
Very interesting however not as exciting as the first two Terminator movies. Sam Worthington and Christian Bale kick butt!
It was better than Star Trek, and I am a Star Trek fan.
After watching terminator 3, this movie is a dramatic upgrade. Has everything you want, action, robots, love, and a bit of philosophy. Got to watch for sure.
