outerlimits Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 saw the pre-release last week. thought it wasn't that great. bale disappears for large periods of time. special effects cool, but i still prefer the 1st one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dqshooter Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Finished reading the book a couple weeks ago and it was action from front to back. Haven't seen the movie yet, doesn't look like it going to follow the book by the trailers that i have seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamingoddess Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Just came back from watching the movie. Good thing is that it was comprised of 2 hours of action-packed sequences (and boy do I like to see things blow up). Other than that, it was disappointing. The "twists" in the plot that were supposed to make viewers' jaws drop were quite easy to read in the beginning, I can't count the amount of times I thought, "You're kidding me right?", and then there were a lot of eye rolling sequences where I just had to wonder about the common sense of our future's mankind. Bale as John Connor didn't really help things any, in fact half the time I didn't think of him as the main character at all...just this guy that sounds like Batman. The only character I somewhat sympathized with was the Marcus character (you'll see who he is)...he's probably the only emotional guy..and that is pretty sad. Okay, maybe I'm a little harsh, I did say I liked the battle sequences (and it was great to see the coming summer blockbuster trailers), so there is something good to come out of this film. I rate it 2 out 5. They sure did a great job on the trailer though...after seeing Terminator I thought of this for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wakal Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Saw it Thursday....not bad. Pretty easy to call, but still enough action scenes to make it worth the trip to the overpriced movie multiplex! Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris iliff Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 wait and rent it I watched it. Spent $6.50 + pop and corn. Felt a little ripped off. Listen to Jake in post above is my best advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03k64 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 It started off pretty good but went downhill pretty quickly. Wait for the dvd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary1911A1 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I saw it and was disappointed. I say wait for Arnold to get done being a Governor and let him do another Terminator Movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Hefta Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 I liked it, lots of action that's all I need to keep my attention, sure it's not going to get an Oscar but it was entertaining. My whole family liked it and a couple of my friends liked it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshF Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 It started off pretty good but went downhill pretty quickly. Wait for the dvd. I'm not even sure if I'd rent the DVD. Wait for the free copy from your favorite computer geek after he downloads it if he hasn't already.... I went with a few friends and most of us were looking at each other with the "WTF!?" look on our faces about half way through. It's the worst movie I've seen in a while hands down. If you do see it in the theater and feel like things are going downhill quick about half way... just walk out... the hill stops very quickly and it becomes a cliff.... P.S. yes I felt robbed.....

BritinUSA Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Terminator is all about the computers, so here's a program to determine whether to see a Terminator movie: IF movie_title = 'Terminator*' & pos('Summer Glau',cast_list) = 'TRUE' THEN Call Go_See_Movie ELSE Call Paint_Garage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerwas Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 horrible. if you downloaded it for free you still lost out on wasted time.leo Are you for real? I thought it was a good action movie, with a touch of "romance"..... It was pretty cool though. It didnt have a strong story---true, BUT it did have a TON of action. I could harldy find a time to re-fill my popcorn..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhop Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 you 2 need to learn suspension of disbelief, i thought the movies was worth it but dont have any idea how they are going to tie in kyle and john knowing each other later on when kyle has to go back in time It started off pretty good but went downhill pretty quickly.

John Dunn Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 It was OK, but they talk about the "machines" having infrared sensors in one scene, couple scenes later they are camped out, no overhead cover, with a bonfire going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

03k64 Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I think I would have preferred the alternate ending. ***SPOILER WARNING *** Don't click if you don't want to know what happens in the movie. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30966548/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshF Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Oh, common... that was only the Start of it.. If the thread didn't have "No Spoilers" in the label I'd be going off on this.... Hell, someone could make a movie of the stupid crap in the movie, it's that bad! I want to see the Mystery Science Theater 3000 version of it..... It was OK, but they talk about the "machines" having infrared sensors in one scene, couple scenes later they are camped out, no overhead cover, with a bonfire going.
