Another product of idiot America

Rating: 6/10 (6 October 2004)

*****MINOR SPOILERS BELOW***** How many faults with this film? I can put up with over the top action which Hollywood loves now it has digital stunt men but action flicks are becoming just too stupid and T3 follows this trend. Arnie takes more of a beating in the first few scenes than in the previous two films together and comes out without a scratch. T1 and 2 despite their sci-fi fantasy still adhered to real life rules such as big metal robot hitting walls will cause damage, not in T3. We've all seen a Terminator endo-skeleton and the pistons controlling the neck and head so how does Arnie put his head back on after the TX lops it off?
T1 and 2 were classic thought provoking films that reminded you of the fragility of human life and made you feel sad about the state of the world, T3 has none of this, instead relying on action and dumb jokes that are out of place.
If you want to watch a film matching the quality of the previous installments then you'll be disappointed, if you just want an easy to watch mindless action movie then enjoy.
2/10
