Yikes. This is definitely not the future my mother warned me about. This future is populated by cute kids, blood-free deaths, supermodels with perfect teeth and goofball terminators that shoot themselves in the foot. It is set in a sun-kissed Michael... Full review
Some nice action but where's the tone? Where's the mood? Where's the atmosphere?

The atmosphere that James Cameron and Stan Winston had created for the first 2 films in the franchise is what really hit me and still does to this day. I think that was the key component along with consistency and approach... Full review
I liked it better than I expected, and was far less disappointed in comparison than other fans seem to have been.

Wow, where do we start with a franchise film so rich in history...and so riddled with continuity errors? The time line problems began with the very first sequel, directed by Cameron himself, and perpetuated with T3. why then, is everyone so... Full review

Alternate titles for this review: 1) A great sequel... to some other movie franchise. 2) The new terminator has a heart. The movie doesn't. 3) Go in expecting to be disappointed. You'll still be disappointed. Wow, was this bad. I stopped... Full review

After this review I may seem like some old codger wagging his fist at these new-fangled times, but Terminator Salvation is devoid of what made Terminator great. How many of you remember watching the first two Terminator movies with reverence and... Full review

More interesting is Sam Worthington as a death-row convict who is unexpectedly inducted into Terminator lore.....Terminator Salvation sadly lacks not only "The Governator" in his iconic role but also the humour and warmth that made earlier instalments (especially the first two) a genuine pleasure..... ...

While I certainly still don't love Terminator Salvation (click link for my initial review), I'll have to admit I found myself enjoying it more the second time around.....The movie suffered from lack of any real depth to the characters, little focus on John Connor.... ... Full Review

Connor spends pretty much the whole film glowering and pouting....But it had some solid action, Sam Worthington doing his best with an underwritten role....Terminator Salvation actually wasn't a bad flick.....The film's biggest problem is.... ... Full Review
