I thought it couldn't get worse after T3...I was wrong

Rating: 1/10 (5 June 2009)

As the title suggests I am not a fan of Terminator Salvation. I went to the cinema anticipating a decent film, after all it only had to follow the awful Terminator 3. I never expected it to touch the first or second films, but for it to be worse than the third film!
I'm not going to ruin the very loose plot, but what I can say is that the acting is very poor, including Mr Bale, which is a great shame as I think he is a good actor.
The camera work was poor, it does a bad job of trying to get you involved with over the shoulder shots and far too many "first person" style views.
Many people will go and see this film, but I expect a lot to be disappointed. Some die hard fans who cling on to the faint hope that the franchise will return to its once great ways, will try to say it was a good film, and that is their opinion and they are entitled to it, as I am to mine.
My advice to anyone who wants to go see this is sit down with Terminator 1 and Terminator 2 at home and watch them back to back. Then once the credits roll at the end of T2 tell yourself that the franchise ended there...which it did.
