Review

it tried to be a funny action movie. it had two or three laughs, and the action was mostly by the book. claire danes has the best performance of the group, but no one does that good of a job. the screenplay is so much weaker than the other two and the direction is average at best. arnold, who i felt was perfect in the first two, is old, tired and manages to not be robotic. nick stahl is normally a fine actor, but ed furlong was seven to nine times better as john connor. and where’s that old school score? that was the heartbeat of the first two films and it’s absent here. not good as its own film () and even worse as part of the series.
