ARNOLD is BACK!!! Hey, we knew he would be...he told us so

Rating: 10/10 (9 July 2003)

The film runs close to 2 hours but with the pace of the action and the interesting storyline I found the movie to be over so quickly.

You can tell right away that T-3 was directed by someone different than the previous two. There is a different style. This movie has great atmosphere and doesn't take itself too seriously. The characters poke fun at themselves which makes this movie seem very fresh even though it is a 3rd installment.
After a long dry spell and some health issues, ARNOLD is BACK!!! He makes his entrance into the movie with a nude scene similar to the opening of the prvious two Terminator's. You'll probably think as I did..."Wow, he looks ripped for 55!!!" He has shrunken from his prime. You don't see much of Arnold's muscle after the first scene. He wears heavy black leather which can make one of those anorexic Tyra Banks model wannabe's look big. Most of Arnolds fight scenes are actually chasing scenes not requiring him to do much physical activity. Sure he is hanging from a crane be dragged through buildings but we all know that those are special effects...and not really him, let alone any other Mr. Universe.
Said all this the movie is fresh, very entertaining and is the best of the big action movies so far!!! It does it's job and makes a case for a T-4. One question...if Arnold loves Hummer's so much why is he driving a Toyota Pick-up the whole movie? It would have been much more entertaining to see him ripping around the streets in one of those new Hummer H2's...GM could have brought out a special edition and call it an H3. You saw it in T3 now you can own your very own H3. Come on!!!
