Terminator 2 Reloaded

Rating: 6/10 (1 September 2003)

Delivering plenty of well-staged action and SFX at high speed, nobody could argue that you don't get plenty of bangs for your buck here. But as it rewarms the plot of T2 without any conviction and expects the audience to accept coincidence after plot-pushing coincidence, this adds nothing to Terminator folklore.
So a myriad vehicles and buildings are destroyed and countless guns are fired, but there is absolutely nothing here that hasn't been done before(and better) in the first two T's.
In fact, there's something sad about hearing Arnie refer to himself as 'obsolete'. For all its apparent energy, T3 - like its once-mighty star - somehow seems extremely tired.
