SPOILERS AHEAD.
Wow, well I recently saw the remake of Last House on the Left - a film who's plot has nothing whatsoever to do with its title - I can't say I was surprised at how bad the remake was, but I can say that seeing the quality of the Hills Have Eyes remake I was expecting better.
Similarly I didn't believe any Terminator Film could ever be worse than T3, but where was the "salvation" in "Terminator 3"? Well the film's title has nothing to do with its bizarre plot. And it'd been announced a long time ago that a little-know Austrian bodybuilder turned Hollywood actor would be staring in the role of the T-800; Kickinger not only looked exactly like Arnie - but with CGI had his face too - but he's role in the film was limited to a single scene... where instead of ripping John's head clear off he picks him up and throws him (either the machines are more stupid than previously thought, or they're just not very efficient Hunter-Killers). Mind you, the year is set in 2018 - more than 10 years before the T-800 are even supposed to exist!
Christian Bale's performance was so bad it distracts you from the awful continuity. Okay most people would easily catch onto the fact that the T-800's have been produced 10 years early... but did you notice that the machines plotted to kill John Connor before he was even leader of the resistance - much less before he actually achieved anything they should feel threatened by?
