Worthwhile

Rating: Null/10 (3 July 2003)

This is in response to the review that stated:
"Obviously made to capitalize on the Matrix/cyber world popularity that movie companies no doubt see as an opportunity for a quick buck. Besides computers (machines) taking over being an obvious rip off of the Matrix/Animatrix, T3 steals from the Hulk (rebuilding nano-technology) and Men in Black II (sexy woman villain)."
This movie's release is in line with the every 10 years (give or take) schedule that the second one followed. How can the theme of computers taking over be a ripoff of the Matrix, when the theme existed in the first Terminator movie, 20 years ago? Nano-technology type stuff has been in Sci-Fi for at least ten years and I think sexy female villains have been around for a long time before Men in Black II.
Not that this movie is a terribly original one. It doesn't rip off any more than any other movie.
Personally, I found it was worthwhile to watch. It is, I am sure, much easier to like if you were a big fan of the first two. At any rate, it was fun to watch. There were some idiotic scenes, like the one in the hangar, towards the end. But there was not enough bad about it to make me regret seeing it.
