T3 - Not so convincing
Review of Terminator 3 - Rise Of The Machines DVD by
ali_godfather
Advantages: Action is pretty good
Disadvantages: Acting, characters do not live up to expectation
Terminator 3 - After some great thought, this movie does not have the style, quality and flair of the previous 2 instalments. The fact that they tried to mix in some comedy at the start made me think that im surely not going to be impressed by this. The story does not have a clear follow on from the start. John O Connor is supposed to be the human savior but turns out to be a homeless wanderer and whose character is depicted no where near what was ...

terminator
Review of Terminator (Ultimate Edition) by
y01larkin
Advantages: you could watch this film over and over again
Disadvantages: none
...elements of the story. The Terminator is a cyborg, so it naturally does what a cyborg would do. It stares coldly at its targets, scanning them, before pulling out its gun and blowing them away. This could have been one of the film elements that became unintentionally comical. A thing that just stares coldly at someone is not something that one may be afraid of…unless, it was done properly. There are many elements in Cameron’s script that help turn ... ...doesn’t direct the Terminator to do anything too over the top. The stare is exactly what it is supposed to be, cold and methodical. One may think that this is one of those campy elements, but anyone who sees the stupendous work done with the character will become a believer. Scenes like the Terminator repairing damaged parts after vicious gun battles may not seem like much, until one realises that all this thing has to do to heal itself is a quick ...

Arnie vs. predator
Review of Predator (Definitive Edition) by
rob1001
Advantages: Classic sci fi movie, Arnie! Stands test of time
Disadvantages: Arnie! Average music, a little slow at times.
...classic sci-fi films alien and predator come to mind. Here is the original predator movie for you to see how such a huge franchise started.
Firstly I realise arnie isnt everyones cupof tea. I wouldnt worry about that in this movie as he gives a decent performance and is backed by some better actors who help bring everything together. This movie is original and stil brilliant. Even though the effects may be dated it still can deliver to the audiance. ... ...it on DVd then this is for you. If you want to be a fan the same appies. Before you watch any sequal in a ny from you need to see this first. The music is good but not very memorable. It does set tense moments well however and you will be on the edge of your seat at times. The movie isnt a simple monster movie. It is much more intelligant than that and also offers more than your run of the mill serial killer movie. ...
