Eh...it was OK I guess

Rating: 7/10 (24 May 2009)

I went to see Terminator Salvation last night and before seeing it, I didn't expect much. I just expected it to be an action/war flick and I thought that I would be mildly entertained, and I was. However, I still had problems with this movie.
First of all, this movie was too short. It didn't have as many memorable scenes as the first three(maybe two)had. It just simply wasn't long enough.
Another problem was Christen Bale. Not that I dislike him, but I just don't think he did too well in this movie. At least he was believable but I still felt that he could've done better as the role of John Connor Lastly, to me it just didn't have the humor and fun that the first three had. In the first movie, the humor was Arnold saying "F*** you asshole". There was a lot of humor in the second movie mostly revolving around young John Connor, and the Terminator(the good one). And in the third movie, the fun was probably all the scenes of destruction and the car chase scenes. However, in this movie, there just wasn't any fun and any humor. Probably the reason being is because its a post-apocalyptic setting, so everything's destroyed.
Now, if you wanted to see this movie and had high hopes for it but now feel bummed out after reading my review, don't worry. The movie does have its problems, but if you don't look over it too much then its not all bad. The action sequences were great and you get to see all the different terminators, which is pretty cool.
All in all, I'd would actually recommend seeing it. It's a good movie if you don't look too deep into it.
I give it 7/10
