This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
The special effects in Terminator: Salvation are superb, but they spent most of their budget on visuals, apparently, and didn't spend much on the script and/or acting classes. This belongs grouped together with Terminator 3 - another sequel that wasn't as scary as the original Terminator and not as fun as Terminator 2.
After the fail of T3, this movie gives the Terminator serious some life support. The kid who played Kyle Reese is a stud. RIP u good actor.
Yesterday I watched this movie, until I know Salvation exist in Terminator Franchise. This is a good action movie like tea without sugar. Without Arnold, how can a movie like this exist. Arnold and Terminator are one, without him every terminator movie is a garbage.
So I made my decision, John Connor is a major dushbag. All good and mighty and very smart and sensitive robots must die to defend this sucker :)) There is a moment in the movie where John Connor goes to fight alone with Skynet and when his wife asks :"What I am supposed to say to your men when they ask about you" he replies "I'll be back" , well at that moment if Arnold was watching I think he laughed his pants off , i mean it was so clumsy and stupid coming from John Connor mouth, that i barely could watch.First of all if Sam Worthington and Christian Bale hadn't played in this movie I think IMDb would have deleted the movie from the movie list :)))). Sam Worthington gets the role very nice and he is a delight to watch, hot hot, but Christian Bale is like the comic version of all Terminators until now, I think for a parody he would have been a good choice but for this part it was a rather weak choice. I tell you when he says "I'll be back " you cant stop laughing. Its like awkward, so out of place that it takes all the serious action that was happening until then out of your mind and makes it comedy like.Watching this I can tell that The one from 84 and 91 there are Oscar material, the rest are just shallow copies. But thank God that at least this movie had Sam W and Christian Bale they saved the movie just for being present cos the roles and the action are just so weak. I think Sam W is thinking watching this movie "what the heck was I thinking?".Another tip, hold one for the first hour cos i was close to stop and go to sleep but I kept hoping that Sam W aka MArcus will kiss the girl. That basically kept me going. :) And again, John Connor, oh my god, do robots with their high IQ really die to defend him??? he's like totally useless, you do more stuff and get things happen when the robots intervene. So I give the movie a 3, but because Bale and Sam are there I give it a 4. :)
