If you like straight action & F/X, you'll love this

Rating: 6/10 (16 July 2003)

On the other hand, if you were looking for this movie to improve upon the outstanding Terminator experience with a good plot, don't waste your money seeing this in a theater. The film is loaded with special effects & is almost pure action from start to finish. The "New" Terminator has minor weapons upgrade, using a plasma device made from her arm, but other than that, very little changed about the new hunter, and of course, the old T-101 played by Arnold, cannot be killed until the mission is complete. If you want something better than T2, you need a different movie. If you want to see what Stan Winston & ILM have done with the T-1000 to make it the T-X, I'd still say to wait for it on DVD. Jim Cameron did not involve himself in this venture for a reason. They didn't have a script that he wanted to make a movie with & he didn't want to write one. Period!
