Arguably the better one amongst a string of failed offerings.

Rating: 7/10 (13 December 2019)

I honestly believe this third Terminator entry has been unjustly critized and hated, for when you really think about it, it's not as bad a lot of people make it out to be. I can even go further by saying it's probably the better film out of Salvation and Genisys, and many would agree.
Most problems lie with the specifics surrounding the storyline, which hits many bumps along the way and does nothing to straighten them out, that is why in the third act you sort of see the cracks and plotholes become more evident as it gets near the end.
Still, there's a heavily enjoyable aspect coming from the side of the entertaining action, featuring a well-done car chase sequence that could put
other generic car chases to shame. In the acting department, Arnold still does his thing we know so well; Nick Stahl proves himself worthy as a cowardly but intuitive John Connor, who doesn't know what the future holds for him; Claire Danes wonderfully serves as a natural complement to Connor: strong, smart and efficient.
Good call on the casting director to recruit actors who's forte doesn't rely on action nor science fiction, it turned out incredibly well. Kristanna Lokken is a formidable T-X model, inspiring menacing fear to each of the human characters involved.
I suggest you give this one another go, and embrace it for what it is, an acceptable follow-up to the best Terminator film ever.
