the weakest outing for the terminator

Rating: 3/10 (30 January 2006)

this film lacks 'identity' - is it an action/adventure or a comedy?
Arnold Schwarzenegger is still the killing machine, although now he steals biker leathers (terminator protocol dictates that Arnold must ALWAYS wear leathers) from a male stripper who also inadvertently teaches him the phrase "talk to der hand!"
Old catchphrases are recycled as well - "SHE'LL be back!" Arnie observes, having blows the latest anti-terminator terminator through a wall and down an air vent
While the pure shock value of seeing a terminator cut its own flesh away is now totally lost, (remember a cinema full of people going "Ew!!" when Arnie cut one of his eyes out in the original Terminator movie?) there are still serious moments, as when a woman motorist sees a naked woman (the latest terminator - remember everyone seems to come from the future naked) walking in the street - clearly the motorist has an empathetic moment of what the hell has been done to that poor woman?
T3 as a weak and uninspired effort - you won't lose much by not watching it!
