Terminator Salvation

I watched the early Terminator movies and somehow liked the action in it. When Terminator Salvation was a go, I wondered what they would feature. I wasn't really excited to watch the movie, I just wanted to watch it because I watched the others in the franchise. Last weekend, I decided to watch it alone. I was actually 5 minutes late and was not able to see much of the start. I think I didn't miss much.

After watching the film, the thing that I noticed was the amount of explosions and gunfire used. Yeah, if you're into action flicks, this is it. Funny but it sort of reminded me of Rambo or some action movie. Everything was really dark. That should be obvious since it was set at a time after a nuclear holocaust. Everyone looked dirty and greasy.

I wasn't really smitten by Christian Bale aka John Connor. I dunno but I just don't like him that much. His acting was so-so and he didn't look hot to me, not even once. If there was one guy I loved in the movie, that would be Sam Worthington who played Marcus Wright. He looked really hot especially when he got all cleaned up. But i also liked his dirty look with the cool trench. weird, but that trench reminded me of a Balenciaga Pea Coat. Oh well, it was great even if it was distressed.

As a whole, it was a so-so movie. Interesting but not amazing. The effects were just like others i've seen before. The timeline of the movie also got me confused. Why the heck is Kyle Reese (Connor's father) still an teen? Did he like come from the future and knocked up his mother in the past? Oh well, I could not remember the chronology.

Anyway, if you just want to see things being blown up all over the place, this would be a treat for you. If you're looking hot cuties, only one made into my list. Haha!
