Simply awful

Rating: 2/10 (23 May 2009)

This was simply one of the worst conceived movies in the Terminator series. This will very likely be thrown out and another made in its place, much like the recent "Incredible Hulk" remake.
There were so many points in the movie where you just ask yourself, "What the hell was the director, writer, UNDERWRITER, whoever thinking?" The movie was very reminiscent of the first Terminator movie in terms of being a "B" movie, yet it had a huge budget for terribly misplaced CGI.
There was no mention of HOW Kyle was sent back to the past. There was NO mention of sending him back other than to say "If Kyle dies, the resistance is finished". At one point, just before the siege on Skynet, it would have been more interesting (and plausible) if Bale had just dressed up as Batman or a Gramaton Cleric and gone in to destroy the place. I like Christian Bale. I really do. I feel for him. He did a fantastic job of acting this part out. He actually, probably, carried the film for most people. But the writing was amateurish at BEST.
Just the worst writing for a big-budget movie in years!
