salvation

terminator salvation sparked a plug in my movie expectations. expectations long in dormant from the last 3 terminator movies.

this movie crippled all other. souly because of the fact that Arnold swartzy wasn't in it! my god its good to get a new face to the lead role of protecting john Connor. however in this, john (christian bale) protects himself more often then not. he is the true warrior.

apparently this film was one of the most expensive films to make. as in top ten in the history of movies! that is a big thing to accomplish. but!!! when u see all the action, destruction and robot interaction in this film you will not be surprised where all that money went! and what do i say to the producers of such a film. MONEY WELL SPENT!

this movie pulled away from the general, terminators are coming to kill john Connor! omg we better run. then run some more. and then kill the big bad terminator in the end...please! that worked for the first three. but i thank the lord that they didn't try it in this one!
so thats a big plus in my books!

besides the young john Connor (Edward furlong) the john Connor in salvation played by the infamous batman of today. christian bale was certainly the better casted actor for the flick, compared with the terminator 3 dude. who isn't good unless he is portraying a yellow freak in sin city!

the plot follows john on a quest to destroy skynet and secure his present life, future life and past life. One person on the top of his list, is his 20ish year old father, who is destined to be sent back in time for him to protect Sara Connor and have some awesome sex with her to make a baby! thats right u guessed it gang! LO AND BEHOLD john is born. but that is another movie. in salvation john is looking for him before he gets killed.

i wont go on about every other character but Marcus (Sam Worthington) is a humanoid thing sentenced to death for murder before skynet takes over. he forwards his body to science, and entwines his future in skynet.
he is a bad guy programmed to be a good guy and to believe he is a good guy to gain access into the resistances stronghold. he chooses to be good and rips out his bad robot chip in his brain.

what a swell lad

anyway

terminator salvation rated: 3.5/5
