Big Screen: Terminator: Salvation

So…I guess I just had really, really low expectations because honestly I can’t really figure out why people are bitching and moaning so much about this movie. Hello, it was the FOURTH installment in an ACTION SERIES. How fucking good did you expect it to be?

I myself expected it to be horrible…and instead found it quite watchable. There was a sad lack of romance or even, at least, sex (hello, you are an action movie, where’s the mack session?). And there was one car chase type sequence that went on way way waaaay too long. (But of course most of the people bitching about the flick didn’t seem to mind that!)

But otherwise, I thought it was fine for what it was: the fourth installment in an action series, that wasn’t ever that great to begin with! I liked Moon Bloodgood or whatever her name is, and yeah the half terminator dude was quite nice to look at, considering Christian Bale was a bit wooden.

And really, probably the main reason I enjoyed it was I thought it raised some interesting, and VERY Battlestar Galactica-like, questions about “man or machine” and what defines a person.
