Overall value for money and time: 7.9/10
Probably the last installment of the terminator series, and surprisingly, a job well-done. Normally, one wouldn't harbor high expectations of sequels, but it seems this might actually turn out to be the 2nd best of all its prequels, with Terminator 2 still ranking as the best Terminator movie I've seen so far.
If you haven't been following Terminator, you might not be able to catch up with the "jargon" of names, but still, the storyline is fairly straightforward. I can't remember much of it either, all I know is that in this sequel, John Connor (the leader of the resistance), whom everyone was trying to save for the past 3 prequels has finally grown up and is finally combating the machine-dominated world.
Then comes his "bodyguard", Marcus Wright, like all the rest of the movies, but this time, his "bodyguard" is more human than cyborg and he fights for his own survival and to understand what was done to him. Imagine a Terminator movie without Arnold, how would the director's still be able to keep it's essence right? That was what I thought initially until I saw Marcus Wright, totally cool, totally refreshing, totally reccommended movie.
*Spoilers ahead* Though the last scene featured "Arnold" in it, governor Arnold *ahem*, I thought it was a cameo appearance, but after reading about it, it was only a computer generated face (younger face) from his past Terminator movies. Still, the CG, acting and storyline will definitely not disappoint!!
