Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: A good Saturday afternoon flick....hang on - this is a Terminator film!?! Comment: Arnold Schwarzenegger returns as the Terminator in the third part of the series. This time a female robot called the T-X has been sent to the past to kill John Connor and his future officers. The first two Terminator movies are two of the best movies of all time in my opinion and T3 really doesn't live up to their standards at all. For a start the script seems to be aimed more for younger views and steers away from the scary, menacing terminator of the original (which used to terrify me when I first saw it) and goes more for a humorous approach which I felt really didn't work. The T-X is also ridiculous with her hands that turn into powerful guns which made the balance in the fights between the terminators seem extremely unfair and if Arnie's model was supposed to be the same as the one in the first films, then he wouldn't have lasted five minutes against her, but he does. The action is very good though with plenty of excitement and high-speed chases and punch-ups. The special effects are great with some (if under-used) very impressive futuristic scenes that make me look forward to Terminator 4 next year, which is supposed to all take place in the war. I saw this film in the cinema back when it was first released and wasn't all that impressed with it and only really bought the Blu Ray edition to finish of the trilogy collection and watching it again now for the first time in 5 years, I did actually enjoy it a lot more, even if it didn't feel like a proper Terminator film when compared to the other two. It does feel a bit like a high budget TV movie but is still a fairly decent action film all the same. Why they didn't ramp up the violence and give it a higher certificate is beyond me, as this could easily be shown on a Saturday afternoon! The picture and sound on this is actually very good with a very sharp and crisp display throughout. In fact, out of the three Terminator Blu Rays, the quality of T3 is probably the best. Film - 2/5 Blu Ray Quality - 5/5 Overall - 2.5/5 More Reviews
