James Cameron is rolling over in his huge pile of money...

Rating: 2/10 (16 June 2011)

This movie was not worthy of being part of The Terminator franchise. My dad who is one of the biggest Terminator fans you will ever meet was so disappointed with this movie and as was I. Seriously, I went into this movie with quite low expectations. I was expecting at least an okay movie and hoping for at least some kind of story. But the story was just so ridiculous, I found myself laughing at this. First of all, why was John Connor so surprised that Marcus Wright was a machine and human? Why did they use lines that Arnold Schwarzenegger says in the previous films? That was just unnecessary, couldn't they come up with new catch phrases for the film? The machines were okay, but how did John Connor break into their base so quickly? Unbelievable. This movie was a complete failure, I thought Terminator 3 was bad, but after seeing this I regret ever thinking that. This 'movie' I was bored not even an hour in. Yeah, sure the special effects were good, I'll give them that. There's not much I can say about the acting either. Christian Bale may as well have been a machine, no facial expressions and his speeches were totally uninspiring. Sam Worthington was average, but he didn't do anything special. Anton Yelchin & Jadagrace did their best with what they were given. The stand out for me was seeing Helena Bonham Carter (Seriously, how did they get her to agree to this crap?) for the 5 minutes of the movie she was in. If you've seen the first two Terminator films and loved them all this movie will do is bring you disappointment.
