Terminator Salvation Review

I was kinda busy lately with work, that is why now only post about this movie... On 14/06/09, went to Gurney Plaza with dearest (since only the GSC there is equipped with THX surround sound in Penang) to watch TERMINATOR SALVATION at 2.30pm.


From the start, the movie was nice with lots of action and bombing where John Connor and the rebels attacked the base of secret labs that the SkyNet use for research. I love the part where John Connor was ridding a copter and was shot down and the whole screen keeps turning 360 degrees till it crash landed and he survived that incident.

Then the story begins to drag... The director McG was rather disappointing in lifting up to the TERMINATOR series... most part of the action feels like a copy from other movies for example like the Harvester capturing humans which almost feels like Stephen Spielberg "War Of The Worlds" where alien capture the people and put into their ship. Another weird thing is that although the world is controlled by SkyNet but it seems there are only a few Terminator models walking around the city like one or two unit only =.=||... Despite the addition of a few more robots to the movie by the director, McG, I felt James Cameron is still the best with Terminator 2. The soundtrack for TERMINATOR SALVATION was also very not good at all zzz...

So here is list of Terminator models in that movie:-

T-100

The Harvester

Hunter Killer

Hydrobot

The Modo

SO overall the movie was kinda "okay okay only" so just give it 3 out of 5 stars...
