Not as good as T1 or T2, but definitely very nice indeed.

Rating: Null/10 (8 July 2003)

I watched T1 in my teens and T2 in my twenties. I am in my thirties now and went to see T3 with a good deal of trepidation, more than half-expecting to see a good franchise ruined. I was pleasantly surprised. They have done a good job. There were some plot holes, but the overall movie was so good that I was able to forgive/overlook the weaknesses in some parts of the storyline. This is a sequel made for the fans, with little concession made for the first-time viewer. Thank god for that!
There is a lot of hype that this terminator is female. But they have done this in the right way and have not let the "sex" of the machine detract from the plot. If you are a terminator fan, you will not be disappointed by this movie.
