Better than most people think.

Rating: Null/10 (17 July 2003)

Despite what most people say about Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, that it is too dependent on special effects, it is still a good film. Of course the acting is not of Oscar quality, but the film is of a sci-fi genre and nobody expects it. While T3 has many special effects, it does have an excellent storyline and plot, especially considering Cyberdyne was destroyed in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. This film adds an element that was in the original Terminator but not in the sequel: the relationship between two characters, John Connor and Kate Brewster, much like that between Sarah Connor and Kyle Reese. This adds an extra dimension to a film which would be without much emotions. Overall, it is a film worth watching. For Terminator fans, this completes the trilogy with Judgment Day.
