warn . i will ruin this movie for youi have see all of the terminator movie ( all in their respective day ) have read most of the comic book adaption and have snore my way through the recent t. v series . and yes . some incarnation be obviously good than others ( to me ) but and this turd of a film could not be far from the mark . and when i actually bother to look up mcgs body of work i can not say that i be surprise . gap commercial and music video and charlie angel . at what point do the financier of this movie say wow and we have to get this guy to direct the movie but and i can not put all of the blame on one person . the entire creative staff have obviously go to the michael bay school of film making . and fail . i only have 1000 word to work with . sooo . i shall list my gripe in point form . 1. within 10 minute of the title shot and this movie fire off one of the big clichés in western film . it too quiet in here ( dramatic pause ) it like theyre wait for u seriously now . be this the best writing that hollywood can come up with . if this be an attempt at humour . it fail . just like the rest of this movie . 2. giant robot . loud noise . almost all of the battle sequence in this movie play out like a stylized ripoff of transformer . there be big walking robot and big robot sound effect and big robot gun and aircraft and big robot rid the robot aircraft and motorcycle robot . they even have little stabby robot that swim around in the water . and they all look like something out of a cheesy mecha flick . all glossy and pointy look . these be not the cold and machine gun metal design that set this series apart from all the others . 3. chase scene . chase scene . follow by more chase scene . # and # $ off with this already . how much time do these people fill with these blow out and cged chase scene . foot chase and car chase and even air chase . how do we transition from our crappy battle scene to our feeble attempt at character development . oh . i know . yep . you guess it . 4. even more clichés . yep . just about all of them . i will have to make sub point for this . the irrelevant love interest cliché . the conflicted double agent cliché . the antagonist fatal flaw cliché . let just leave all of our nuclear power cell lay on a big table . they will be ok the incompetent villain cliché . no and a hydraulically powered mechanical assassin would not simply shoot or crush or eviscerate it victim . but and would merely toss them around and fire it weapon erratically and then stand underneath precariously place heavy object and blast furnace etc . the ( pathetically mangle ) hero sacrifice cliché . oh no . john connor have be impale through the chest with a ragged piece of metal . and and his heart be just about to fail . here and take my perfectly good cyborg heart . that have just be crush repeatedly with a giant metal casting . and then nearly punch out of my chest by another cyborg need i go on . this movie be big budget hollywood hackery at it best . and i still can not believe that it make it off of the script . i hope that the person responsible for this mockery be rip apart by wild dog . thank you and good day .
