I saw it Friday night.
I have to say it's not as good as I'd hoped. It definitely has its issues. That being said, I still liked it and would recommend it.
Pros:
Great action scenes.
Good development of the new Terminator character.
Great visuals, sound, and effects.
Good story line
Christian Bale and Sam Worthington performed great
Moon Bloodgood is super hot IMO.
The Governator kicks some serious ***!!
Cons:
The story seemed way too rushed.
There are some major inconsistencies with the story line of the first 3 movies. Like:
In the first movie it was portrayed that the survivors of Judgment Day were terrified to go outside and had to live very cautious lives. In this movie they are just out in the open with jets and Hueys and all sorts of "in-you-face" warfare.
I really don't think a Terminator, whether created from a human brain and body or not, would be programmed (or lack of programming rather) to actually go against the machines
John Connor didn't really seem like the leader to me. He's more like Three Dog in Fallout 3...an influential voice of the people. The John Connor that Sarah raised wouldn't stand for his own character.
The Kyle Reese story was kind of weird to me. I think they pushed his character a bit too much.
And there any not enough already with Terminator : The Sarah Conner Chronicles.....?There are some major inconsistencies with the story line of the first 3 movies.
You're totally right. I think the problem is that the whole series/story has been piece-milled together. However, Salvation has inconsistencies even outside the other inconsistencies. I don't know if you read any of my spoiler stuff, but once you see it you'll see what I'm saying.And there any not enough already with Terminator : The Sarah Conner Chronicles.....?
The problem with Terminator is that it exist on a series of parralle time lines. Simulare to the Butterfly Effect Movies.There are some major inconsistencies with the story line of the first 3 movies.
The problem is that the John and the people close around him knows that he's this "Great Military Leader", but the rest of the world is just does not know it yet. Like is close friends might know that he's have previous terminators being sent back in time. However rest of the world most like thinks that he's just some punk that happened to be in the right place at the right time on Judgement Day with a track record for having a mom in a nut house and a history of blowing up things. John Connor didn't really seem like the leader to me. He's more like Three Dog in Fallout 3...an influential voice of the people. The John Connor that Sarah raised wouldn't stand for his own character.
