Wow some one pointed this review out to me so I thought I'd read it and boy was it a good read. Not because it was well written or very good in ANY way, but because you got SOOOO much wrong.

"whose last memory is of sitting on death row and awaiting execution."
Really? So he doesn't actually remember getting strapped to that cross and having drugs pumped into him? hmmm

"Unable to determine whether Marcus was sent from the future or rescued from the past"
This is NEVER brought up in the film. How do you know that Connor was thinking that when it wasn't even presented in ANYWAY to the audience or to any of the characters? HOW ON EARTH DID YOU MAKE THIS UP?!

"as the robots grow more powerful and aggressive than ever before. It appears that Skynet is preparing a devastating final attack designed to eliminate the human resistance once and for all, "
Actually the robots weren't growing more powerful and aggressive. In fact they faked having a massive weakness in order to lure Connor in. Did you actually WATCH this movie?

"leaving Connor and Marcus with no choice but to strike back at the cybernetic heart of Skynet's operations. Once there, the two battle-scarred soldiers discover a devastating secret regarding the potential annihilation of all humankind."
What are you talking about? What secret? WHAT?! This doesn't make any sense at all!!! This doesn't even happen in the movie. Sure they're both in Skynet but not because of the reasons you say and they don't discover ANYTHING that isn't brought up in the first TEN MINUTES OF THE MOVIE

"The plot is just like the trailer revealed (and an unnecessarily long text explanation reiterates)." what long text... let me put in the blu-ray right now and see what the hell you're talking about...

Ok here are the opening credits over the title... With the ORIGINAL THEME THROWN IN...

Six short paragraphs, many of them 1 sentence long...

And because you'll say that's unnecessary let me explain something to you very quickly... Believe it or not Terminator doesn't have a HUGE massive audience that's seen it. Sure movie geeks and the average person have, but kids? Nope. And seeing as how this is a PG-13 film it's the first time kids can see a terminator film no the big screen without their parents. To top it off it's a prequel, setting up the entire series...

"I also wished they could've played the original theme song at least once"

Did you fall asleep during the opening credits? Because I just heard the drums and they continue in the credits. Do you know how scores work in film? As for the Terminator score being great... listen again dude. It's a lot of droaning. IT works for the film but it isn't something I'd want to put in my CD player or pop up in iTunes and listen to. The opening credits theme is great sure, but to call the pieces of score memorable? ugh Oh and to call ANY Danny Elfman score flat shows that you have ZERO taste in music or simply don't pay attention. The best job a score can do is seem like it's not there, like it's organic, and that's EXACTLY how Danny Elfman's score plays in this flick

Over all kid you don't bring up ANYTHING that's a good point. You pick at things in vagaries and generalities... these plot holes? Where are they? Can you explain them to me? I thought the movie was pretty straight forward and at no time was I confused. Maybe McG is just too big of a director for you to understand. Maybe his vision is too complex.

Oh and telling people to see it on DVD when it's left theater is retarded. Of course if they haven't seen it in theaters NOW they'll have to see it on DVD right? That's literally the ONLY way they're going to see it... Don't act like you went and saw it in the theaters when it hasn't been in for a while now... oh and you reviewed it a week before it actually hit DVD shelves... soooo i'm guessing you bootlegged it... good job

step up your game DORK
