Watched it last night. I know I'm going to echo many other reviewers by saying that this movie that too little John Connor and too much Marcus Wright. And even then, they never really developed the Marcus character very well.

The cinematography, I felt, was rather poor and lackluster. There are pretty wide-panning horizon shots, but the movie tries too hard to tell two stories at once at any given time, cutting in and out of either so poorly. Guy sees jacket, camera cuts to some kid in a foggy room, cuts back to guy who is now wearing the jacket in a completely different place...

Actions scenes were... alright. Sorry, fire explosions and whatnot are just too commonplace nowadays. The only interesting bits are from the Motorterminators and the awesome humming sounds of the larger Terminators (with THX... oohyeah.....).

Is it worth watching?
If you like action movies in general, yes.
If you're a Terminator series fan expecting to learn more about the canon, no.


Nitpicky bits ensue:



Interesting observation:
