A cinematic atrocity of epic proportions

Rating: 2/10 (24 March 2009)

This film is absolutely horrible. Hollywood tried to cash in one of the greatest film franchises of all time, but had to do so without James Cameron, Linda Hamilton or Ed Furlong. James Cameron walked away from this project in disgust over the horrible screenplay they wrote.
This film should have been based off the canon sequel, T2:Infiltrator by S.M. Stirling. It is one of the best science fiction novels I've ever read, so well written with plenty of character development, action, and plot twists. S.M. Stirling wrote this novel based on the Terminator world created by James Cameron and William Wisher, and Mr. Cameron originally considered basing the screenplay for T3 off of this book, but the studio ruled against it, so he walked away from the project.
You be the judge.. -SPOILER ALERT-
A few years after T2, John and Sarah Connor are living in Paraguay in solitude. Their new neighbor just happens to be a retired intelligence agent who, years later, would be captured and killed by Skynet, his face used as the model for all T-101s.
Meanwhile, Skynet (yes, Cyberdyne had their work backed up at another facility) sends its greatest weapon back in time. An actual human/cyborg hybrid. She is physically human with cybernetic nano-implants and a neural net processor implanted in her brain at birth. She is a human Terminator who can think and feel as people do, but with superhuman strength and reflexes.
The Infiltrator gets a job at Cyberdyne as their head of security, builds a half dozen Terminators and sends them to kill John and Sarah Connor and to insure Skynet's future..
