Rise of The Machines
Category : Action
Description :
It's been 20 years since Arnie was in the first Terminator movie. When he makes his signature nude time travel entrance into T3, even though you can tell he's slightly heftier than one he made the first one, Arnie's still got it. By some miracle of camera angles and makeup, and maybe some old fashioned iron pumping, Arnie has been made to look very Schwarzneggar in this installment, despite my fears that this old man would look and act like an old man. I hope this is the last time he puts on the metal endoskeleton, as decrepit has-been action heroes kept on life support is the stuff that movie nightmares are made of. Make no mistake, this movie would be nothing without him.
The premise of T3 in brief: A new kind of terminator, now faster, more intelligent, more powerful and in a female form, has been sent back in time to kill the lieutenants and other high ranking officers of the future human resistance army. As always, the resistance have sent a terminator back to protect them.
Plenty of violence and glorious gratuitous destruction! Some great Arnie style one-liners that I will have to study and remember. It has some funny moments too, especially between the Terminator, John Connor, and a future resistance fighter played by Claire Danes.
Some liberties have been taken with the script, such as the absence of Linda Hamilton being explained away by Sahrah Connor having conveniently died of leukemia in the years between T2 and T3. On the bright side, there is a total spinout on the background of the protective terminator.
Not a patch on the original, and looks deathly pale in comparison to T2, but T3 is still enjoyable entertainment.
