Walked into the cinema with the lowest expectations possible and.....

Rating: 9/10 (5 June 2009)

I went into this knowing that another T3 would end my 24 year love for film.
Ill be as honest as i can be- I loved it This isn't the bad movie that some morons on here are banging on about, neither is McG half the negative that have been written about him.
The first hour of this movie is a terminator fan-boys wet dream. Its solid and entertaining and it has some great ideas .It does get a bit matrix-like towards the end, but it jumps ship well before Revolutions begins.
The film doesn't waste time explaining anything, it just jumps right in. Perfect. Lets get on with it. We know the history now move on and lets see how we win the war (if we win the war) Christian Bale is good, we always knew that. Its also nice to see that John Connor is the bad-ass that we always wanted him to be, instead of the whimpering idiot that the T3 writers decided to create. The new character of Marcus Wright is interesting and Kyle Reese is pulled off brilliantly.
I cannot fault this film.
P.S As far as i am concerned the T3 movie doesn't really exist, its purpose serves only to show us that Judgement Day happened and that John Connor survived it. The rest has been deleted from my memory.
