More Like Termination Salvage-tion

Rating: 7/10 (15 January 2014)

Terminator fans has been doubting director McG into directing the latest Terminator film, where the focus of the film this time isn't really about the Terminators much although there were a hell bunch of them out there. The focus is more on the human race. Their struggle of winning the war. Purpose to live and exist. Director McG has never direct anything serious so far.
Well, this time he proves what's best and he's capable of doing to please the audiences and fans. Bale as John Connor reminds me of his role in 3:10 to Yuma where he acts alongside Russell Crowe. But Bale's portrayal in this film with Sam Worthington as Marcus Wright is a little awkward when I saw Marcus being held captive and still believes he's human; that is when John Connor's interrogation having that Batman's voice in Dark Knight with Joker.
Anton Yelchin as the young Kyle Reese; this Reese has the every knowledge of being taught by Marcus Wright where we will recall some parts being shown in The Terminator. The part where Marcus tight a rope around the rifle was shown in the first Terminator film when he battle the T-800 to protect Sarah Connor. Yelchin delivers the character very interesting and there are still a little comedy in him. Perhaps Reese was still a teenager.
Then there's this scene where the Hydrobots jumps onto Connor's face as it wriggles to kill him. Don't you think it's one of James Cameron's cameo item? Doesn't it reminds you of face-hugger in Aliens?
