I have been working so much lately that I didnt have enough time to go the movies. Thursday I finally got that chance. We decided to go see Terminator Salvation. I loved this movie. It turned out to be better than I thought. I hate it ended the way it did, but at least John Connor lives on. OMG Arnold looked so huge in here. Tney did a great job on the special effects. I give them Kudos on that. Have you seen this movie? What do you like or dislike about this movie? All opinions are welcomed :-)

I saw it a couple of nights ago and really enjoyed it. I liked the references to the first movie such as the photo of Sarah and the audio tape she made him. It had good action and good special effects and I liked the new machines that were introduced. There were a few things that bothered me but they were minor. One thing was the character Marcus. I remember wondering through most of the movie just why he is so important. I thought maybe they could have developed his character better. I also didn't like that they cast Michael Ironside as the Commander of the military forces. He's just not a very strong actor, I don't think. There were other minor things that bugged me a little but it was still an awesome movie. I'll certainly buy it on DVD.

I thought it was a very good movie too. Strangely those where the same things that bothered me. When the movie finished I told my husband, Marcus character wasn't completely thought out. I certainly thought they could have developed it more. I agree I dont think Michael Ironside is a strong actor. They could have gotten someone else, even the guy that played Hitman would have been better. Thank you for taking the time to comment on my discussion.

I love this movie too. Nothing really bothered me about it all - I just enjoyed it immensely and have been thinking about it ever since! I was even dreaming about terminators last night after seeing it! Anyway I'm glad it's having a much better response on my lot. I've been on the IMDB boards for the film and the people on there really seem to hate it. No idea why, but I guess it's always hard to please the die hard original film fans. As to Marcus's character - I liked it. A lot of the charcter development was in his looks/voice etc rather than his words which shows very good acting. I spent a lot of the film wondering who he was which really made it a gripping film. Edge of the seat suspense and action and a great plot, which had the tough job of being both a prequel and a sequel!!

I think it's will be a good movie, as the terminator in series are good. But I still can't found the DVD version in the internet, I don't have time go to the cinema, even I know that watching at the big screen feels better. I am going to see it untill the DVD version comes out. Have a good day! Swaggalicious.
