Review: Well chalk one more crappy sequel up for the Terminator franchise. Not only does this movie disappoint, it bores. There was so much potential for this movie to tie in to the other movies, to create the sort of movie that Terminator fans would get excited when they figures out a specific detail's tie in to a previous movie.

My dislike for this movie may have something to do with all the negative press it received after Christian Bale's profanity rich tirade, which hit the internet during the filming, but honestly, I think it's due to the fact that this movie relied on a big budget and an existing fanbase to help it succeed instead of working harder on making the film be able to stand on it's own two legs.

Personally I was hoping for a "Batman Begins" rebirth of the franchise but instead, all we got was "Batman and Robin" the only thing missing was George Clooney.
