All things considered - a real good time

Rating: 8/10 (3 July 2003)

Face it: T2 is as good as moviemaking gets. There's no way to beat it, or even to equal it. Take that attitude, and this movie becomes infinitely better.
First: Arnold. This role is why he is on Earth. Still fits him like a glove.
These action sequences are not bombastic over computerized seizures like Matrix Reloadofcrapped. They're based on a semblance of a real world. I personally believed they destroyed all of LA in one car chase. Truly the action highlight of the summer.
Complaints will be heard all across the land. But T3 moves, has several good set pieces, a corker of an ending, strong performances, an engaging story, and one of our most beloved icons keeping the whole ship afloat. The whole lithe affair made me hate Matrix Reloaded even more.
