I loved T1 and T2 very much. the script, special effects and sound score was amazing. they were both flawless and T2 has a timeless feel to it. it still whips the ass script/special effects wise of nearly any action/sci fi movie made to date.
T3 was an ok movie. the sound score sucked. Also, i found the female robot to be a bit stuiped and unbelievable. Arnold was a trooper and did his best but, lets face it.. he is getting older. He did bring a lot of class to this movie though. John Conner wasnt played by the same actor as he was in T2... no excuse for a franchise like the Terminator. there was some decent action sequences [ gun fights, car chases/crashes, fight scenes and explosions] while others looked too CGI and fake. I liked some of the dialogue too...when they wernt trying to be funny.
To me, the haunting nuclear war scenes were awesome to look at and some of the best parts of this movie. i loved how John conner was talking calmly then they cut to the sound of a nuclear ICBM screaming then exploding violently over a major city. The scene where skinless T-800 terminators are marching through the nuclear ashes of a future LA exterminating anything that moved was too cool. i don't wanna sound crazy but, i enjoyed seeing the end where those ICBMs were shooting up from the silos and you could see mushroom clouds peppering the globe. There was something really scary but awing about these parts of T3.
