We got in to a sneak preview last night (it actually opens today), so I thought I would give y'all my personal review of the movie.
We heard on the radio driving in "It's the best of all the Terminator movies", so we were pretty psyched about it. I liked the second one, even though I had no desire to see it before hubby made me.
All I can say is that if you want 2 hours of destruction on a very large scale, you will probably like this movie. If your taste in movies wants a PLOT, don't bother. The first HOUR of the movie is basically a chase scene - and you thought the chase scene in The Matrix was long! - that involves a crane and destroying downtown LA. Then there's a little bit of a plot, the Terminatrix (a woman this time, but with NO character at all and about 3 spoken lines in the whole movie) comes back and we get more firepower. There is some plot at the end of the movie, but you have to get through 1 1/2 hours of mindless destruction to see it. The last 1/2 hour of the movie wasn't bad actually.
My recommendation? Wait until it comes to cable TV.
