So, almost five years after its release, I've watched it. As many reviewers have noted, there seems to be something missing... There's a notable shallowness of character in John Conner this go around, and Arnold's terminator seemed to miss the mark...... Full review

while its special effects are undeniably impressive and are amazing, it continus to chase its plot and never catch it. arnold is also too old and he should retire. its not memorable, but is very entertaining and visually stunning.... Full review

A decade has passed since John Connor helped Judgement Day and save mankind from mass destruction. Now, 25, Connor lives "off the grid"--no home, no credit cards, no cell phone and no job. Connor has no record of his existence. There... Full review

The newest terminator, the girl machine, did exactly the right thing to show how bad the movie was.. she inflated like a balloon. She was the perfect representative of a movie that was a REALLY big bust -- over inflated and... Full review

The ending is the best thing about the film....The problems with this film begin at what has been a staple of the franchise in having a memorable villain.....portrays a villain more concerned at giving silly lines than wanting to maim her next target.....This venture doesn't develop the characters as well and the plot lacks the heart and deepness of the first two.....Jonathan Mostow does an admirable job directing the action scenes.... ...

In fact, as an admirer of T2 as one of the truly great action films, I am happy to add T3 to the list. Claire Danes's Kate is also a credible character, but it's the deadliness and persona of the baddie that really makes an action film, and Kristanna Loken is pretty good. ... Full Review

HD-DVD and Blu-ray are now my mediums of choice and with owning all three "Terminator" films on Blu-ray, I cannot even begin to think about using any of them as reference material and while "Terminator 3" may be the best looking of the bunch, it isn´t overly impressive on Blu-ray. ... Full Review

Kristanna Loken (most geeks know her as the TX from TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES ) is the perfect choice for this role. The whole key to this series lasting is whether or not the audience will be able to identify with the main characters, especially Jane, and I think that Loken is great at playing the human aspects of the character as skillfully as she kicks ass with the stunt work. ...
