A turn for the worse

Rating: 1/10 (30 July 2003)

Personally i found both the first and the second film quite enjoyable, not the greatest films i´ve seen but good nonetheless. When i first heard that T3 was in the making i was actually quite pleased and thought that after such a long time they would have developed an interesting plot. What i was expecting was a much darker film than the first two, and perhaps one that would be more of an epic, great battles between men and machines, more thoughts and reflections concerning the issues that lies as the foundation for the movies. I was however, greatly disappointed with this film for more than one reason.
Firstly i found the humour awfully misplaced and inappropriate. I couldn´t believe that they would do this to a movie that quite naturally had high demands from the audience, to me T3 is close to being an action/comedy, and that´s not meant in a good sence... Secondly the story is just bizarre, it´s all action and nothing else, mindless action with no substance. Maybe my expectations were too high but i just can´t help being so disappointed, the underlying theme and thought behind this movie could have made it great, but right now i´m thinking that the time i spent watching T3 is never coming back to me, makes me a little bit angry actually....
