0028. because i was late, i ran up and down the bloody mall to get tickets to terminator salvation. the damn lifts were packed with my lazy fellow countrymen who terribly allergic to escalators. oh well, on to my 2 cents.
as expected from a hollywood blockbuster, the effects were explosive, pun fully intended. there were all the basic elements of an action thriller; gunfights, fist fights, car chases, hot damnsel in distress leading to some lame romance, capture and interrogation, some plot twists and of cos who can forgo multiple nuclear mushrooms? i for one sure cant.
boooooooom!! awesome!!
nothing much to praise about the cinematography, but the clever choice of talents is lip smacking. christian bale from the dark knight, moon bloodgood from tv drama journeyman, and a special cameo by "arnold schwarzenegger" as a tribute to his earlier roles in the terminator series (also for continuity). good film to go watch if you have that "i wanna kick some robots' metal behind!" mentality.
lastly, watch out for the trademark terminator one-liner by christian bale before he leaves camp. nice. =)
rating: 2.5 heart transplants that DO NOT require blood type matching out of 5.
