Best summer movie of 2003

Rating: Null/10 (3 July 2003)

Arnold is finally back, looks just as great as he did the day he did T2. I was expecting the movie to be great and it was great, however as expected it would not surpass T2. Mr. Cameron can rest easy on that one, cause deep down we all know that nothing can beat T2, unless he decides to do a T4 which would be fantastic.
I loved the action, could be even better than T2's action, but that still remains to be seen. Both Arnold and Kristanna carry the movie very well together, and they definitely have updated their ideas as far as technology goes. Nick Stahl who plays today's John Connor was alright but not great, the thing I am beginning to discover behind his character is he doesn't have much of one to begin with, even when you look at T2 with John you can sort of see the same thing. Claire Danes was pretty good as playing Kate Brewster and had some great emotion in her character.
The only things I didn't like about it was it was missing the feel of soul, of humanity, the fact that machines were going to take over didn't really scare me that much in this one, I guess only cause in T1 and T2 we are told the stories of what happens and we can only imagine it which can be the true horror, but it would have been preferable if James Cameron were to illustrate that actual illusion because I know he can. The movie was too quick, as great as it was, we waited 12 long years for this and I think over 2 hours isn't too much to ask for.
But all that aside, I loved the ending, definately leaves the door wide open for one more, but I don't want to wait another 12 years for it, maybe 5 years at most would be good, but we will for sure be back!
