I don't know what all the whining that I keep hearing about that movie is coming from. I thought it was awesome! Lots of explosions, cool guns, A-10s, and people getting beaten within an inch of their lives, but with their last ounce of strength they persevere and destroy their mechanical nemeses. That last bit, and the part where the good terminator sacrifices himself in the end, are two classic Terminator elements; without which none of the movies would be what they are.
I give it two fleshy, chromoly thumbs up.
You just inspired me to actually go see it, I was waning cause of the lack luster reviews.

I gave up on it when Skynet didn't kill the guy.

I can't get around the idea of giving money to the ones responsible, as the director has the charlie's angels movies on his rapsheet and the scriptwriters are responsible for Catwoman....

His Batman sounded like he was coughing up a hairball...
Has there ever been perfect Batman casting?
I can't think of any.
I liked him in American Psycho
There is only one Bat Man
I liked him in Empire of the Sun.
