Soap Opera Writer / Director with a 200 Mill $ FX Budget

Rating: 4/10 (9 June 2009)

Sadly I was fairly disappointed by the movie.
The main theme is a disastrous mismatch in talent through the whole movie. While visual effects are top notch and fit very well into the Terminator Universe, the audio effects get boring after the first 30 minutes, especially the always same effect when a terminator appears. While the action scenes are fast paced and well written, the interaction between characters is mostly C-Movie quality. Not because of the actors. It seems the writers or director didn't have any idea how to sell a deep moment at all!
The movie would be better if all dialog was in some aggressive sounding language so you don't have to listen to the BS content...
Thats how you ruin a franchise, in the credits I even expected to find Gearge Lucas credited as inspiration with his "great" work on StarWars I-III...
