Awesome.

Rating: 10/10 (1 July 2003)

*Spoliers* I just got back from seeing T3 tonight. At first I was not sure whether I really loved it or I really hated it. I have since decided on the former. I went into the movie with a very hopeful yet skeptical attitude. Ok, the movie. At first I was afraid that my fears were coming true (the stupid sunglasses, talk to the hand - which actually was incredibly funny to me). The T-X made me quite sketical at first because she is so hot that I could not think of her being a mean ass. Then when she connects to the net through her phone I thought "oh d*mn." From then on out she is a bad*ss. The chase through LA is hands down awesome. Much better than the Matrix Reloaded chase (though not as long). The Terminator is very good. If a little more emotive than he should be. Things about the movie that I really loved: Skynet coming online was so cool. There really wasnt much to it, but just knowing that it was happening was so cool. Conner realizing that judgement day cannot be averted was very good. I also liked how the machines came to realize that just as judgement day itself could not be avoided, neither could John Conner, so instead they aim at the less important parts in an attempt to lessen the sum - the future generals that serve under Conner. At first I did not like how the movie ended, with the bombs dropping right at the end. But in retrospect I think it was good that way. However, it also necessitates another sequel. I was sorta hoping for some closure. But I was also itching to see everything blow up. Which also did not really happen. But I guess that really was not all that necessary. There were a few other bad things. First of all, there was just a little too much corny humor. Some would have been good, but not as much as was in there. The sarah conner part was rather lame, in my opinion. I wish they would have explained some more how the main players all happened to find there way together at the kennel. The movie sorta throws out the whole "no fate but what we make" thing. However, I think that is a good thing though. Lastly, I was hoping that Mostow would throw in something about Uncle Bobs left over arm at the end of T2. All that being said, I am very pleased with this movie. 9 out of 10.
