I enjoyed it.

Rating: 8/10 (11 August 2012)

Though it was different from the original films, I enjoyed this film none the less. I love the Terminator, and maybe it wasn't the best of the series, but I enjoyed it as a separate film. It was fast paced with well developed characters, I found it interesting enough to watch. But one thing I didn't really enjoy the the dark, solemn portrayment of John Conner. It didn't really fit his earlier character.
I have to admit I did hear Marcus's accent slip through a couple times, but overall I think he added a lot of charisma to the film. The actor who played Kyle Reese, a genuine and believable was a joy to watch on screen as well. The atmosphere of the movie was a little gloomy, but I loved the look on the post apocalyptic dessert and the CG of the labs. I didn't regret watching this movie and it kept my attention all the way through. I liked it.
