This is in no way a bad movie. In fact it is better than most movies in its genre. The problem is that it is following on for two of the best action movies Hollywood has ever produced and with that to live up to, like Oceans 12 and Star Wars Ep.1, nothing was ever quite going to match peoples expectations.
The story has moved on and Sarah Conner has died, he son (now 23) is living 'off the grid' in case the future does not turn out how he expected, which it inevitably does. Once again a Terminator is sent back in time with the goal of killing him and his future resistance leaders and its the old T-101's job to save him.
Once again this leads us off into 90 minutes of action and mild violence with plenty of product placement. The story is fair, with what I think is a strong ending (making a T4 an interesting production if ever made). For many the problem is that it lack the raw and 'real' action of the first to with the over use of CGI and the different, less experienced, director. However for me that is not the issue. For me the problem is the clear change in mood and setting. This is because the original two were almost completely set during the night adding an additional fear to the scenes. This is lost in T3 with almost all action now taking place in the day. On the good side the CGI is strong, much like the acting (as far as emotionless cyborgs go I guess) and like I said the ending is in my opinion a good one.
In short: - This is easily the weakest of the three Terminator movies, but that said it is still a good one in its own right and manages to achieve all but the sternest critics requirements, especially on a second viewing.- Was this review helpful to you?

By Rayon (17 reviews) , 07 Jun 2011Was chating with some mates the other night, we all worship the first two films. None of us could remember anything about this one apart from there might have been a lady terminator in it.- Was this review helpful to you?

Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines
By Deltic7772 (5 reviews) from Newcastle upon Tyne , 23 Mar 2011I've always been a Arny fan. 'This by all means one of his best!' Clint Eastwood and Arnold Schwarzenegger are both the same characteristics, I think they are both excellent actors of out time!!!- Was this review helpful to you?
