Five Reasons Terminator 3 Was Fucking Awful
5) The Villain
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines was fucking awful. At least, compared to what a Terminator movie should be. There are many reasons for this, but here are five, starting with the villain.
Let’s face it, the ‘TX’ is just a poor man’s T-1000. In fact they even tried to write it as superior to the T-1000, yet simple logic dictates that the removal of an endoskeleton, if possible, is going to be vastly superior for the purposes of a multipurpose combat system. It’s just lazy writing.
Kristanna Loken is also a poor man’s Robert Patrick. Patrick was able to convey a cold, emotionless killer. But in trying to do the same, Loken comes across as simply wooden. Watching that film for the first time I couldn’t help but think ‘this enemy is just a cheap rip off’.
