Highly enjoyable but no needed.

(Grammar Issues Beware)If you checked out my latest IMDb review of Dracula II:Ascension I know I teased that Christmas Vacation was going to be the next review but I changed my mind to this one but I'll get to that sooner or latter.
With big success in The Terminator a even bigger success was created in Terminator 2:Judgement Day so with all this success a Terminator 3 was going to happen regardless or our liking or not and now that we got it I'm happy about it.
I fully heartily respect the opinions of others but I think the major drop down in critical success of this film is invalid and is bent up on people's blind admiration of James Cameron's work and not allowing another person to take on the property.
Terminator 3:Rise of the Machines starts out with some effective monologue by John Connor himself and then we are given a buffet of terrific scenes with a stylish first courter of the film with the Terminatix killing off the kid throwing the party and the burger point employee.Then the rest of the film transitions to a lot more substance instead of the style of the first courter of the film with a slow bonding between a frightened Katherine Brewster and a confused John Connor of which has matured greatly after the events of T2 I like that element of the film.The film goes on to have awesome action scenes like the shoot out at the Cemetery and at the Skynet branch.The film's main issue is it's bland,dull & almost complete mockery of the Arnold Schwarzenegger Terminator as seen in the film but the Terminatix was cool enough to ease the pain of Arnold's painful profromance of which he certainly made up for with his improvement in Genysis.The film has a bleak and awesome ending for a film of this kind of which could've went for the happy cheery ending of T2 but I admire the chance of the ending of this one.
Terminator 2 by a technical level is a better made film but in certain elements T3 outshines T2.
