Adds Very Little to the Terminator Saga..

Rating: 5/10 (22 May 2009)

I'm a big fan of the Terminator movies, so this movie was very disappointing. Sadly i found T4 to be not much more, than a bunch of action sequences and explosions. Which would be fine for a summer action movie, but none of it is exciting or gripping. Terminator 2, was one of the most brilliant Sci-Fi movies of it's time and for all time, because James Cameron combined, a great cast, with a thrilling storyline, and edge of your seat action. Every scene felt important, and you were dying to know how it would end. Sitting through Terminator Salvation, i found myself simply wondering when it would end?? Not caring much about the plot or the characters that were entangled in it.. Christian Bale does a good job in the role of John Conner. He has the charisma and presence of a man you believe could lead soldiers into battle against insurmountable odds, but the plot itself is just not interesting enough for you to really get that involved in his character's, journey. In T1 and T2, the acting, the action, the ultimate journey you were taken on, all flowed so perfectly. That isn't the case in this movie.. If you looking for an action packed popcorn movie, that is fun, yeah give Terminator 4 a try, but if you are a die-hard fan of the franchise, hoping this new chapter brings, new elements and exciting plot twists to the Terminator Franchise, you will be greatly disappointed, on really every level.
