Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)

Labels: ,

Directed by Jonathan Mostow
Written by John D. Brancato and Michael Ferris
IMDB

The Terminator shows up and helps John Connor stay alive while under attack by a female Terminatress. This is a very stupid and shallow movie.
If you have seen Die Hard 4, then you will understand when I say this: Terminator 3 is the Die Hard 4 of movies. It's dumb and more over the top than necessary. All the while, maintaining a bloodless PG-13 rating. The female Terminator is hot, but that means nothing to the overall quality of the picture.
Arnold is fine, I suppose. It would have been nice to see Furlong return as John Connor. The guy who replaces him in this film does a fine job. If you can't have James Cameron directing a Terminator film, you shouldn't make it.

4.5/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
