A decade has passed since John Connor (NICK STAHL) helped prevent Judgment Day and save mankind from mass destruction. Now 25 Connor lives "off the grid" - no home no credit cards no cell phone and no job. No record of his existence. No way he can be traced by Skynet - the highly developed network of machines that once tried to kill him and wage war on humanity. Until out of the shadows of the future steps the T-X (KRISTANNA LOKEN) Skynet's most sophisticated cyborg killing machine yet. Sent back through time to complete the job left unfinished by her predecessor the T-1000 this machine is as relentless as her human guise is beautiful. Now Connor's only hope for survival is the Terminator (ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER) his mysterious former assassin. Together they must triumph over the technologically superior T-X and forestall the looming threat of Judgment Day - or face the apocalypse and the fall of civilization as we know it.Running Time: 110 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:Â ACTION/ADVENTURE UPC:Â 085392772322

Summary: You can't please everyone (well not nerds anyway)
Comment: Well i liked Terminator 3, i found it right up there with the first two. I feel sorry for the director and cast trying to make this movie great, only to have a few nerds moan about every tiny detail about it.
I bet when T4 comes out, those same nerds will be saying "Wasn't as good as T3".
The HD transfer is great :)

First of all if you've never seen either of the other two other Terminator movies instantly change this rating to a five.
The First Terminator was excellent. The second was better than excellent. It actually improved on great special effects and the action scenes were even wilder. Number three was almost as good as number two but it didn't really show us anything that was brand new. The formula of action on top of action with great special effects to back it up was adhered to.
Nick Stahl is excellent as the twenty-something John Connor. He knows his fate is to be the savior of the human race. He'd just rather not do it at all.
Kristanna Loken is suitably mechanical as the T-X: The ultimate killing machine from the future. She's a sweet looking little robot too. Some teenage boy was sitting in front of us in the theatre shouted out during one of her rampages, "That girl could blow me death any time."
It was that kind of a movie.
Arnold Schwarzenegger is as always the perfect Terminator Robot. He's big and intimidating when he wants to be and a really great strait-faced comic also.
Termainator3: Rise Of The Machines is a great Saturday Matinee Movie. Don't look for deep meanings here. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.
Check it out!

Summary: Good Enough
Comment: Its not the best of the terminator series, but being last doesn't make it bad.

Summary: Great sequel. Really.
Comment: For all those people who say that there's no plot - go back and watch the film properly. There is a good story which culminates in the very last scene. The gags weren't half as bad as I expected them to be and those little moments of comic relief were necessary, 'cause the rest of the film was pretty damn serious. It's a very good continuation of the Terminator story and it's a brilliant movie when you keep in mind that it's part 3! Yes, this film is a bit different. Not that much different. Did I miss Linda Hamilton? No. Did I miss Edward Furlong? Hell, no! Did I miss James Cameron? - Hm, there's a certain emotional factor that Cameron would have inserted during the whole film, instead of just the ending. Anyway, especially for a follow up of an all time classic, I will give it 10 / 10 stars. There's one major plot hole ... but you can ignore that easily. Go watch it. Btw. the chase scenes are better than the one in the Matrix. Here, things get crushed for real. A lot. :) My 2003 cents.

Summary: 5 Star Movie
Comment: This movie is a really great installment in the franchise and I think that this is one of those kind of films that grow more popular through the years. If you are a fan of the Terminator series, then you will find some fun to be had with this movie. There is ton of action and the story really advances the mythology as John meets the person who will eventually teach him how to lead the human resistance.
The opening storyline of the movie is also very interesting when the new Terminator, the T-X, targets John's future lieutenants. The T-X is a very cool new Terminator and is more advanced than the T-1000. Arnold is awesome as always, the best line has to be when he asks the male stripper to take his clothes off. Overall, I think this movie is really cool and will become even more important when the next film comes out.
