Terminator Salvation
So I find myself sitting at the movie theatre, anticipating what was expected to be one of the year’s best action movies only to find myself disappointed in the end just as I knew I would be. Ah, the never ending sequels out of Hollywood have become such a waste of film, not to mention movie goer’s money. I don’t believe an original thought comes out of Hollywood. Having said that, it is even more apparent in these stupid sequels we pay to go see. When you watch a sequel you are at the mercy of some Hollywood writing buffoon that the flick will, at the very least entertain us and give the audience a decent story line explaining why in God’s name there is yet another sequel to begin with.
At best, assuming I had never seen a previous Terminator movie, I could rate this a “C”; but I did see the other movies so I give this movie a “D-” rating. The special effects were good but not as impressive as other effects I have seen in numerous action movies. And, I am not referring to the ridiculous attempt to super impose Arnold Schwarzenegger into the movie.
Get this folks, another new and improved Terminator! Forget about it already, this new, stupid yet handsome Terminator has a love interest! Be serious, an action movie is an action movie for crying out loud there is no time for some heartfelt moment between some half breed machine and a real woman. Did a woman write this story? If so she has a dang good idea in the replacement for the all American “Battery Operated Buddy”! Yeah, I thought so. At least this handsome devil is warm!
I truly believe Christian Bale is a fabulous actor…..what was he thinking? He sold out; it must have been the money.
There is nothing new here people, if you must see this waste of a movie do yourself and your families a favor, save your money and watch it when it comes out on DVD! |
