[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 7845140, member: 6716779"] Last night we went out for dinner right beside the movie theatre. So we decided to go see it and got drunk afterwards. Probably should have got drunk first. So this movie is being called the best Terminator movie since T2. I'm a fan of T3 and thought that one was better but it's better than Salvation and Genysis. It's not a disaster in terms of being entertaining. Looks like it's going to bomb. The main negative to this movie IMHO us bad CGI. What you saw in the trailers is what you see in the movie. T3 used more practical effects less cgi. It similar in quality to T3 imho, I prefer T3 ymmv. Linda Hamilton and Arnie are back and do a decent job and Arnie gets some great one liners. MacKenzie Davies as Grace is also very good. The character of Dani is completely miscast. She's not a convincing actor and they try to shoe horn her into a new Sarah Connor but she short, lacks the screen presence and her lines fall flat more than a few times. Also overshadowed by Linda and MacKenzie Davis. Gabrial Luna as the Rev9 also falls a bit flat. He's not scary as the Rev9, to much CGI is used. He lacks the physicality of Arnie in T1&2, and the nuance of Robert Patrick. The Rev9 isn't even as interesting as the Terminatrix in T3. Due to bad CGI his character had that weightless feel in to many scenes. And some very massive plot holes. On a positive note not all the CGI is bad and the effects used to de age some characters are amazing. Arnie's characters gets in a few jokes but it never crossed the line into self parody that T3 did. The 30 or so people watching it got a few chuckles. The action scenes are basically dumb fun entertainment but better than the Michael Bey school of explosions approach. In addition to being great Grace manages to overshadow Sarah Connor. She's very good. Complete rehash though and they lifted a few concepts from T3 and Salvation and the TV show. It's not great but not terrible. [/QUOTE]
