I need your clothes, your money and your.....err...er....LINE!

Just watched the third installment of the Terminator trilogy (T3) and despite not being very excited about it in terms of the hype and going in for it, watching with an open mind, i have to say that it was really ok. Ok so it was no Terminator 2 but that was over ten years ago and watching terminator when you are ten or elleven years old and thiking this is the coolest thing since turtles isnt gonna be the same as watching it as your fast approaching 20 and comparing it to its predecesor. However it does make satisyfying viewing and does lead on from the previous story quite well leaving it open at the end for another sequel and altogether is a good action film thats not tried to rip off the matrix.

One of the few things i do have to nit-pick about is the cheesyness of it, most notibly Arnies continous renditions of "im back", "hes back", "she'll be back". Aswell as being cheesy it isnt needed and is a bad attempt at including comedy in the film whilst also relying on the previous's film's success in order to make this one look as good/seem better. Arguably it also takes away some of the coolness factor but again, going back to the whole 11 year old thing, plus it might just be me readinginto it to deepl? But still despite this, like i mentioned it is a good film, highly watchable (atleast for one off). It wont be something i rush out to buy on dvd, ill just wait till its under a tenner at music zone. Definetly recomend taking some of that hard earned cash and spending it when it comes out at the cinema, go see. John conner will survive
