Good action, horrible story

Rating: 3/10 (15 April 2004)

When I first heard T3 would hit screens, I was expecting it to be of same quality as previous ones, cause I really liked the first two Terminators. Then I heard Cameron wasn't signed to do it. And when I arrived to the cinema and the movie started, I realised my worst fears were true.
SPOILERS AHEAD
Movie started off with horrible voice-over, which explained the situation, so instead of revealing the story bit by bit with mystery factor (like previous ones), it was spat on our face, ready for mindless action. I actually regret paying so much money for seeing this movie. Action was well done, but that doesn't excuse the lack of story, which seemed to be there only to connect all the pointless actionscenes. It seemed like a spoof of first two installments. Although I liked Arnies performance, Nick Stahl and Claire Danes were pretty bad. They didn't connect at all and the part where Kate finds out her fiancee has been killed is really really bad. But don't worry - she'll laugh at it with John in a couple of minutes.
NO MORE SPOILERS
Only pleasant surprise was the ending (which I'm not gonna spoil for you). Oh yeah... and T-X is pretty hot ;) Rent it and watch it with friends after a couple of beers. Don't expect it to be as good as previous ones. Good sci-fi has been sucked out of it.

My rating - 3/10 (only for seeing Kristanna Loken nude from behind).
