AKA: T4: Salvation
Summary: After Skynet has destroyed much of humanity in a nuclear holocaust, a group of survivors led by John Connor struggles to keep the machines from finishing the job.
New good sequel in the terminator series. A bit dissapointing at times and over the top, even when it's a terminator film. On the other hand, it has some good moments too and the action and storyline is still interesting and renewing.
Average action movie, the type that comes out multiple times every summer, so obviously not up to the standards of the first two films. Still entertaining at times, and Worthington is excellent.
Terrible, just terrible. There was no point in the movie being made, the plot was just terrible and in the end resolved to absolutely nothing. The status quo in the beginning is the same as in the end, but it tries to make you think otherwise.
A mediocre film that, like its immediate predecessor, is heavy on action set-pieces and lacking any engaging story. Plot contrivances abound and every twist is broadcast beforehand. Worse than that, the stakes have never felt lower, as John Connor punches terminators and skydives into the ocean. The "gritty" future is actually lush and bright, and there are several sequences that showcase nature reclaiming the land. An entertaining movie, but one that is ultimately devoid of suspense.
Just really bad. There isn't a scene in this movie that you couldn't find a hole in. Bale was just yelling constantly in his Batman voice. Action scenes that should have been cool had way too many dumb things in them. For as much as Skynet knew they made just horribly inept decisions. The ending was unbelievably cheesy. The only positive worth mentioning was Yelchin and Worthington's performances. Just re-watch the first two if you need a Terminator fix.
In a climactic scene, Christian Bale goes into hand-to-hand combat with a terminator. It's really, really stupid and the whole time I was wondering: why doesn't the terminator just kill him, because it's, you know, a TERMINATOR?
Too many mindless explosions, plot holes instead of just plot and an ever-shouting Christian Bale makes this too mechanic - even for a robot movie. At least T3 had Arnold!
Just as I can direct my feces into the toilet every morning, so too can McG "direct" a film. And, just as McG's name seems to be missing a few important letters, so too does this film seem to be missing somthing that someone who maybe spent more time paying attention in film school than using his 3-letter name to pick up chicks could have brough to the series. (sorry for the run-on) Still, Bale tries hard, and terminators running about the screen killing people almost always guarantees goodness.
Not the worst movie in the world. The action scenes are cool, but the dramatic scenes are a bit inept and seem to just go through the motions. Bale provides some great unintentionally funny screaming moments.
The fourth feature film directed by McG, and he fully lives down to his filmography. He's turned in a dreadful, flavorless exercise in effects excess and narrative stalled on the "bludgeoning" setting. He's certainly done nothing to make sure that his film makes a lick of sense. Every iron-thump step of the way, there's a new a plot detail that flatly, painfully doesn't bear up to any sort of scrutiny. What is logical, sensible, plausible is continually dispatched in favor of what is cool.
Had some very exciting action scenes and the Terminators were convincingly frightening. Would've liked more character development and more for Bale to do besides look mean and growl. Worthington and his character arc were pluses.
