  • $12.50? at a time in 2009? I pay $8 today. Holy crap.

  • i enjoyed Terminator:Salvation as much as i enjoyed Terminator: Rise of the Machines. Terminator 1 & 2 were and will always be the best from the Terminator franchise. this is a completely different Terminator movie all together and the scenery throughout the movie doesn't change. when thinking back on the movie, all i can remember is the future post apocalyptic style that it has. it's not a memorable movie at all. it's worth a rental. i'd give it a 6.5.

  • Grace is sexy when she acts like a futuristic female version of John Connor.

  • 5/10. not as good as terminator 2: judgement day.

  • Grace's intro had me cracking up! Nice work Grace. I went into this film with SO much anticipation but was disappointed :( The trailer HYPED this film out so much that I was expecting the same energy but it just never reached it for me. I do believe that it was good enough to start a new franchise so it wasn't a complete disaster. If they ever release a sequel (T5) I'm sure it'll be better than this.

  • Oh yes! The first episode :) So refreshing :) 

  • but grace alien 3 (directors cut) was great

  • no arnold = gay

  • @mushal7james7tony

    agreed, the movie was a disappointment for me, but not only because it was without Arnold, it was just not the same as the 1, 2 and 3.

  • GRACE=THE NEW LINDA HAMILTON

  • Hey Grace I really liked your little speech in the beginning because I totally agree 100% and Im also tired of classic movies (that paved the way for new ones) to be remade just for the sake of money and cool speacial effects.

    But it seems Hollywood is running out of ideas so they either regurgitate old movies (that suck most the time) or take someones ideas from books comics cartoons anime etc. and try to make it work on the big screen were most just FAIL perfect example is The Last Airbender

  • worst movie of 2009

  • @ecwfanatic93 WTF? whats wrong with you? this is the best of all movies

  • @GavynNuva what have u been smokin? you have to be high as a kite to think that this pice of trash is anywhere close to terminator 2. clearly it takes about as much as a jack in the box with a machine gun, or sam worthington as a cyborg, same thing, to make u think this is remotely good. and your askin whats wrong with me. go actually watch T2 or any other terminator movie and compare them to this hunk of junk

  • it had arnold as a cameo

  • i was soooooooo dissapointed with this movie

  • "the tv show got canceled, really? because I watch it all the time"

    seriously? if you did, you would have known that lol

  • This movie took a tatical aproach to the fighting, when the other one were, "Fuck shit up." Run 'N Gun." aproach

  • graphics suck

    story sucks

    acting is okay

    and I wonder why that little girl has everything he needs?

  • Batman vs Terminators.

  • In case he miss what he can do with ya 3 days instead of just watchin a movie I have my idea on that...

  • And agree on what she says 70% of hollywood's productions is just shit !

  • I do like the blondie ciao from Rome.

  • it was good as a movie but not as a terminator movie

  • that beginning was hilarious

  • best review

  • i find it ok

    its not bad

    its just ok

  • I found it funny that the T 600s and T 800s

    keep throwing there enemies away from them so I give this movie 8.5/10

  • A 9!? People sure are generous these days

  • i'm still trying to figure out if this chick is cool

  • she s way cool

  • that was cool up until that idiot eating the orange!

  • it was good it kinda confuses me at the end what is going on.

    btw spoiler alert:

    ARNOLD SHWARZANEGGER

  • i didnt see it but they had so make a conclusion to the terminator trilogy or terminator would be pointless

  • It sucked!!!! Whoever directed it should have actually watched the first 3 movies, and paid attention to the details of them (like how they were supposed to only be able to move around at night). They made it way to sappy with some random little girl, some robot with a human heart, and how the robot gives away his heart at the end for reconcilliation. If you ask me, they should have stopped making them after the second one (although the third on was funny) and quit while they were ahead!!!

  • oh! and she was at 42nd strret i go there all thew time

  • the movie sucked......... the summer this summer was a bunch of too high budgeted franchise marvel ans unoriginal movies ever now.. we see simple kick ass movies like 9 saw and disney mvoies the 3%of the movies that make it to the theater

  • arold was in the last part

  • BUT IT WAS CGI!

  • I loved it, Marcus was awesome and I hope they make a movie for him.

  • what like Terminator origins: Marcus Wright is that good enough? lol

  • terminator salvation sucked.

    they should of brought arnold back as the main character then it would of been better.

    Terminator 2 will always be the best terminator MOVIE !

  • easily the best action movie of 2009 10/10

  • when i was a little kid i loved the terminator movies but this sucked ASS man i was shocked

  • i thought it was the best action movie this year followed closley by transformers 2

  • I think it sucked... it was just loud.. all i remember was my ears were hurting, maybe it was just my local theatre? maybe, either way... the plot wasn't strong enough for me to disregard how loud it was -.-

  • Yeah Terminator Salvation sucked ass. It was filled to the brim with plotholes. The entire plot contradicted itself. But an average movie watcher will think it's great cause of the mindless action.

  • Really? I loved terminator salvation, I mean it wasn't perfect but I did like Christian bale, he was ok but not as good as the dark knight. My freinds like it. But I was looking for more battle scenes. The first part where they drop the bombs on the robots and then go down in small helicopters, the movie would have been much better if that scene was shown several times in the movie if you know what I mean. i'd give it 8/10 (great but not perfect)

  • The movie would have been better if it had a plot and at least decent dialogue. I don't see what you liked about Christian Bale, is acting was stale and his character didn't offer much since the plot wasn't based around him. A big mistake. We been waiting for the for years and they don't even focus on the main character. Not to mention the plotholes. Alot of the story felt forced, like Arnie and the T2 homages. This movie was garbage but an average movie goer would overlook all this.

  • Does anyone know that Terminator story was stolen from 2 Outter Limits episodes. James Cameron got sued for $56,000 because of him ripping someone off :)

  • Holy fuck this movie was terrible.

    It didn't even feel like a terminator movie, it felt like a striaght to DVD release by the Assylum.

  • alot of people are saying this movie isnt like the same as the other ones. but the other ones were atempts to prevent the war. this isnt one of those this IS the war so it should be different. it is the lid to the box of terminator. it ends it. if they make another one i wil be genuinely supprised.

  • Fact is, movies like Terminator, X-men, Spiderman, Star Trek, Star Wars etc. they all get slayed at some point, but it dosen't matter, cause we as idiots go in and watch the movies cause we loved pre-queals, or at least some of them... they get their money.. they get happy

  • I liked this movie 3.5/5 it was good but not what i expected. T2 was way beter. also the governator wasnt in it. a look alike was in the movie for about 3 minutes :(

  • That was a digitally animated version of the governator!! SO lifelike and for that reason, a little creepy. :P

    Grace

  • why does this John Conner not look like any of the original John Conners?

    oh yeah... i just remembered t3 :(

  • T3 is fucking crap. Anyone who defends it is a fucking idiot and doesn't understand technology for starters. Next it pissed all over the Terminator story.

    When James Cameron said 2 is the end, and that is it. They should respect it.

  • got news for yea dumbshit haters bale did not do the dam batman voice in this movie look closer dumbshits

  • i loved this movie fuck this vid the movie was way better then T3

  • Wow have you seen the ending a fucking heart transplant in the desert get real

  • I excepted more even I though I liked it

  • Here is my rating, the TRUE RATING for this piece of trash, and fucking INSULT TO TERMINATOR and A INSULT TO JAMES CAMERON.

    -9000/10

    That is all it deserves.

  • Terminator Salvation is fucking bad. Just as bad as T3.

    Fuck you hollywood and FUCK YOU McG for raping the fucking story.

    FUCK,FUCK,FUCK

  • t3 was an awsome film

  • well Bale's Performance i this movie is.. not quite good but Worthington really stood out in this film

  • Before you go see this, you need to watch the first two and forget the 3rd movie ever existed.

    It was a great movie I saw it twice, some awesome action scenes and I hope they make another.

  • Will I thought it was okay but i think it was a bit rushed Transformers revenge of the fallen was allot better.

  • no arnold = no watch

  • christian Bale should not play in another terminator but sadly he will in the rest to come.any joe could have done a better job then he did.besides him the film delivered a great story and suspence.and was way better then Transformers 2.

  • Terminator Salvation needed a little bit more character development and a lot more plot, but great action scenes and good performances( ecspecially by Sam Worthington) make this a really good movie.

  • billy mays died 2 hours ago

  • 4/10 1-3 were chasing each other to kill this was war

  • I personally thought this movie was pretty freakin good and i would even recommend this movie even for adults but not a very good Terminator classic film like the rest, you need arnold to be able to achieve that, and more stuff but hes really important as others would know. And Christian Bale never say, "I'll be back." ever again, it's not your thing.

  • Arnie is too fat to play the terminator and he is too old for the part now also. I'm sorry if anyone is offended it is just life besides it breaths new life into a film if you have a new tough terminator step into the spot. The film was awesome. Nothing can beat a classic lets just hope they don't try and remake it... I think i will cry if they do

  • Its a common action movie that gives you loud effects and big explosions but has little story.

  • i would say 8/10

  • they cancelled the tv show!!!

  • pretty bad movie, this film has no soul....I need Arnold!

  • there was Arnold! (well sort of lol)

  • My Offical Review: Terminator Salvation the fourth installment of the franchise takes a whole new direction for the series, a good film, sweet action, good acting, good story, and awsome special effects. The story had some plot holes that should be fixed, but the audience will not notice it (unless your a fan) Terminator Salvation is good better than the last one. I give Terminator Salvation an 8.5/10 I hope you enjoy the movie when you ever see it in movie theaters.

    This is Rampage6guard

  • the acting and effects were good, but there are glaring plot holes that could have been fixed with rewrites.

  • it was awsome i liked when they figured out marcus was a robot

  • Awesome movie! I don't understand why people are not watching it. I am glad I gave it a chance , and I would watch it again:) Christian Bale and Sam Worthington are Fantastic!

  • The movie was great but its more war-like and christian bale sunds more batman-like than john connor. And also the Arnold Cameo shouldve talked but great cgi. 8.5/10 (i dont want tickets i live in aus. lol)

  • Just got back from seeing the movie. Its awesome! I don't see why this movie gets bashed soo much, nothing is gonna compare to the first two, they are classics. It stands on its own but it does feel like there will be more movies. I agree that it felt like it could have been longer and that the movie was about Marcus. Great action, good story, great effects, and cool apocalyptic scenery. 9 out of 10

  • Dont really wanna watch it, so my rating would be neutral...

  • ok!!

  • the effects and action was good, the plot sucks

  • plot? there was a plot?!

  • Great movie to watch, can´t wait for the next one!

  • The game was pretty cool, but kinda short!

  • Fuck it, I'm sorry, but in my opinion, #1 and #2 were shit. Too cheesy and dramatic for my tastes. I want a good old fashioned apocalypse with fast cars, hot women, and big guns.

  • Fuck it, I'm sorry, but you have bad taste.

  • This is the film Terminator fans have waited for: Finally, you can witness the post-apocalyptic war between machines and human, a resistance movement!

    The one thing i missed the most was THE Terminator: Arnold. Looking away from that, the movie is great! Worth waching.

  • This movie was crap, i gauged my eyes out!

  • It was definitely better than 3, with only a few minor bogus scenes here & there that every movie should be allowed.

  • It was awesome, but some stuff was way too fake

  • THE MOVE WAS AWSOME I SAW A BOOM BAM KAPOW THEN TWO ROBOTS CAME OF THE BACK OF A NOTHER ROBOTS LEG AND IT LOOKED BADASS. the movie was good ^_^

  • That old lady is fuckin NUTZ!

  • This movie was a solid 7. The romantic subplot was kinda dumb, and didn't need to be there. the movie is PG-13 so even though people do die, you don't really see any graphic violence. More CG than I'd care for.

  • THat guy with the afro has been on this show about 3 times now. I bet he just wants to be on the internets lol.

  • lol after that dramatic speech "where'd get that"

  • Terminator Salvation is ain't as scary as the original Terminator ("Sarah Connor"...Bang!), much less fun than T2 ("Hasta la vista baby"...) but has a better story to tell than Rise of the Machines (Skynet wants to eliminate John Connors lieutenants and his future wife...what the...?) and I give it an 8 rating!

  • X-men origens was an awsome movie!

  • I thought it was okay, but the story has alot of loop holes and sum of the charaters were pourly casted and or represented.

  • im going to see terminator salvation tomorrow hope it rocks because i'v seen terminator 1, 2, and 3 but scince this one was was made in the 20th century it must be much better than the other ones and plus i love my famaly and friends are going to join me so more people to join me yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

  • I'll be back my ass... 5.5/10

  • yes indiana jones did suck. just becuase a fun movie does not make a good movie. termnator=crap. Star trek amazing, watchmen best.

  • wow...you should really watch more movies then man! that is a bold bold statement right there unless your like 10 or something!

  • Terminator: Salvation, while not the better of T1 or T2. It does make up for the tv series that bombed on the network (for what ever reason), and T3, which was a pretty nasty kick against the franchise, and the release of this movie. However, it delivered what it promised, and while it may not be the best, it is enough to jump start the franchise and get the hearts beating for terminator again. 81/2

  • i totally agree with the mexican dude. much better than t3. and i just recently watched all of them, and i will say, it did try to keep to the franchise, it used actual audio from t1, when sarah is like, "god a person could go crazy thinking about that." i also liked that they used the actual picture from t1. it probably could have been a little better, like why would skynet build something that would turn against them? kinda lame, but overall i would give this film an 8.

  • Go see the movie again.

    The dude/machine was a hybrid created before the Arnold machine. Remember Skynet had not yet perfected grafting skin over metal. That is why it still had a heart & two brains.

    There was a Terminator live/T-3D special edition project that did not get wide release. I've read the script but not seen T-3D Live Edition. Reviewed all extra content on extended DVD's. They did their research and it all seem to make sense.

    This is an adult movie, no bubble gum like the last.

  • I don't think you fully understood it He was made before skynet took over and became self aware

  • i think that both crystal skulls and live free were examples of sequels from the 80's and early 90's originals that were too heavily reliant on visual effects. theres no danger and no excitement in pixels unless its done right, and for the right thing. they both tried to be a bit new but stuck to a tired/cliched way of storytelling. you cant enjoy it if you're removed from it.

  • Oh, come on.

    Indiana Jones was NOT disrespecting the franchise, and NEITHER was LFODH.

    They were both an example of fans getting too overserious of their franchises and not realizing tha tpeople are supposed to have FUN at these movies, they aren't character dramas, JESUS!

  • I was disappointed. This should have been better than it was. 100% pulp fiction that do not hold up to the first three.

    Steven S., George L., & Kathleen K. are industry icons they are expected to create film magic every time. They suppose to make movies that demand $12 dollars a pop. This was a wait for the DVD kind of movie. This was a Superman with Richard Pryer kind of video, junk.

  • The first two were classics and to be honest I don't expect it to better than them but I think this will definitely hold its own. If this had no asscociation with the terminator franchise I bet you'd have liked it.

  • Finbomartini my bottom comment was about the Terminator movie. T4 was great!

    The top comment was about the Indiana Jones 4 movie.

  • 7.5 out of 10.

    Sam Worthington and Anton Yelchin were the actual stars of this film, not Christian Bale.

  • i loved terminator salvation, it was good to see arnold again : ) IT HAS ALOT of action seen and it kept me interested the entire movie.

    so has X-MEN wolverines origins, it was good 2( the special effects were perfecly fine, they were great !!! : )

  • i give it a 4.5 cuz it was just so cheesy and they threw everything way out of proportion and everything just turned lame. this was a micheal bay film because all the rediculous explosions and fire cxoming from the ground, but it would be a disgrace to my name on it. It DOES have potential. they just didnt take the oppurtunity to make it better. and yes, lose the batman voice. NEW DIRECTOR PLEASE!! McWho??

  • i agree with the above!! nicely put!

  • begining ftw

  • It was ok, nothing special, ending dragged on.

  • So if Kyle Rees is truly John Conner's father why didn't they just kill him immediately and it would also had killed John. Why did they wait for John Connor to try to save Kyle. Furthermore why don't they create a shit load of T-800. Is there any reason for this, I mean they kinda left it at a point where it would be easy for the resistance to fight against skynet.

  • kick ass action scenes, horrible plot.

  • one sentence review?

    MARCUS FREAKIN WRIGHT

  • reminds me of halo

  • What can i say, Terminator Salvation is the best movie of the year, it brings back memory's.

  • how the hell can you say that when this year just began!? every trailer for every movie now makes the claim "this is the best movie of the year" and your opening up wide to be spoon fed such lies!

    stop being a part of a herd mentality...if you like it awesome, i am truly glad you enjoyed it. but to go right along with what hollywood has programed you to believe is ridiculous!

    !!BATMAN IS NOT JOHN CONNERS!!

  • AMEN GRACE, preach it... nice acting as well. i agree 100%..speeches like that is what i miss about indymogul!

    the movie....of course people are gonna say they liked it when they just paid 10 bucks to see it! but when compared to T2 ...its a joke!

    i dont get it....all that time traveling in t1 t2 and t3....only caused the terminators to not look like Arnold!? WTF!? Marty Mcfly could of done a better job at fixing the past!

  • Thanks, AbstraktTV09! I was speaking from from the heart.

    T2 = amazing!  And I like your Marty Mcfly reference. :)

    - Grace

  • thanks a lot Grace... anytime! keep doing what you do girl your the shit! the world needs more people like you and Eric!

  • im seeing it in a few hours

  • 10/10

    The Movie was packed with action and was true to the Terimnator Frachise, it had too many old Terminator references to count and overall It Freakin ROCKED!!!

  • m6601 i dont think we watched the same movie! cause honestly from an old school fans perspective...its a 3/10 at best!

    bail ruined the movie!! did anyone bother to tell him hes not filming the dark knight any more and he doesnt need to sound like he has throat cancer!?

  • Seriously the whole movie im like lose the god damn batman voice Jesus!

  • I do agree that it could have been better and maybe I over exaggerated. You are right, bail has to stop talking like batman. we all have our own opinion... and this is mine.

  • I thought the movie was great; it stuck to the main Terminator series plot, unlike T3, and I had a great time watching it.

  • 1 sentence review: salvation isnt really needed in the plotline but i loved the terminator motorcycles

  • terminator salvation was a good movie but i wanted to see the first judgement day where they won 8 over 10

  • infinity

  • Speech at the beginning was pretty epic

  • Thanks, diablospitt41!  Meant every word. :)

    - Grace

  • All the action, but none of the Heart.

  • Terminator Salvation was amazing totally redeemed the franchise from Terminator 3

  • 9.9999999/10

    The Terminator franchise is back and let's hope it will come back again in the not so distant future

  • xmen origins was awesome....better than x3....so i didnt think you should have said it was alright lol

  • X-Men origins was one of the worst movies ever made. The second worst? X-Men: The last Stand

  • okay, i agree with you that xmen 3 was pretty horrible...but if you actually look and watch origins without associating it with the other movies, then it is a really good and overall entertaining movie. I mean, too many people are comparing movies these days with the originals (which nothing can every beat except LOTR) wen they should be watching them and think, woah, this is a fun movie to watch!I mean,xmen origins kept me entertained for the full hour and a hlaf so im happy enough with that

  • No no no no. X-Men Origins, even by itself, was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Period. Laughably bad dialogue, a plot that makes no common sense and special effects that wouldn't hold up in 1992 let alone 2009. it was not a fun movie to watch; the only reason I didn't walk out was because it was a three dollar theater. Even then I still felt ripped off.

  • 9.54676335464/10

    terminator salvation rocked and they terminated my saliva.. :D

  • 9/10 Terminator Salvation isn't a perfect movie by any means, but it was tremendous fun, exciting, and a worthwhile extension of the classic franchise.

    I've seen it 3 times thus far and genuinely enjoyed it more each time. I'll likely see it again.

  • 4:20 Good answer. Very good answer.

    ~ Chris @ Ergo

  • Never got to see it yet but I think Edward Furlong should of reprised the role of John Conner for this one.

  • I totally agree with you on this.

    - Grace

  • It's also too bad Michael Bien could'nt actually travel back in time and reprise his role as Kyle Reese for this one. I do think the one thing that bugs me most is when John says "This isn't the future my mother warned me of." That pretty much means we're screwing up the franchise.

  • This movie wasn't as good as the first two "Terminator" movies, but it was better then No. 3.

  • anythings better than number 3 lol

  • From the up beat the whole movie, the amazing characters, the story, the music, the action everything was great. 9/10

  • What I liked about Terminator Salvation was that it was the story of Marcus Wright, not John Connor. Yes there is John is there and his action affects the storyline but the main focus was about Marcus and about the human spirit.

  • I don't know if I agree that I like it, but you are right. The focus of the movie is to Marcus: the human spirit and as John, in the end, questions: what is it to be human? The question I've been asking myself. To some level, Marcus' sacrifice answers the question, but John Connor sums it up.

  • John Connor is kinda a flat character at this point really. Focusing on Marcus and Kyle was a smart move, otherwise the movie would be pretty one note.

  • 8/10 it was good but bale was acting a lot like batman

  • 8/10 Salvation is not exactly a salvation for the series how ever it is a life support from the ugly face plant of terminator 3.

  • this movie was cool,but the funny part about it is that i saw arnold like for 3 min as a terminator

  • You were wrong. That was one of the best movies I've seen in a while. Stupid, like that would have been a sucky movie, ppssshhh.

  • was great had connect all most very thing in the past terminators and very amusing!

  • Cant wait, this will be Epic!!!

  • it is ok... except for no Arnald!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Haha... it was an ok movie but I WANTED MORE!!!

  • i think this one was ok, i thought the plot would focus on something much bigger and also focus more on Connor. ive always wanted to see the terrible war that happened ever since the first movie, and i think it lives up to it! 7/10

  • this movie rocks

  • 8/10

    This movie wasn't T2, but it was very respectful to the franchise and should open the door to a whole new, fun arc in the series.

  • probably a 12 LOL hahah

  • yes aliens all the way!

  • the action scene were really good the storyline got dull at times but overall it was pretty good 8/10
