Lots of good action but disappointing story

Rating: Null/10 (1 July 2003)

There was much room for improvement in the third installment of the series. I enjoyed the action just as I would have expected but the new John Conner, Nick Stahl and Kate Brewster, Claire Danes do not have much screen presence for these roles.
The one liners and references to the previous films are very good and are enough to keep it interesting. I noticed that the audience did not catch many of the references and wondered if the humor was only there for the die-hard fans. Overall I would say go to a matinee instead of paying full price.
