Good, but not great, like the first two films
Advantages: Good action, fast paced, mildly entertaining
Disadvantages: a parody of the first two films, nothing original, poor characters
Rise of the Machines was a disappointing effort, in the context of the first two movies in the franchise which were both excellent.
T3 has its moments, there are some very well put together action sequences, and its a fast paced film in general. Nick Stahl is a great actor, but he was mis-cast as John Connor. Claire Danes as his "sidekick" was equally forgettable. Its virtually impossible to care about these characters. The "Termanatrix" isn't a ...
...T-800 in the first movie. Arnie, God Bless Him, isn't very convincing as the now pensionable Terminator, the character has changed beyond recognition since the first film. The whole thing feels like a rehash, or parody of the first two, there are no new ideas, nothing we haven't seen before, or seen done better in previous instalments.
That said, its reasonable entertaining, and its not a bad film by any means. Worth catching on TV, not worth buying ...

The movie Top Gun was the first of its kind for military movies
Advantages: Action packed, thrilling, great storyline
Disadvantages: Doesn't follow the exact truth of the real top gun
In my opinion, Top Gun was the first of its kind in relation to the military drama and action. They used real footage of F-14s and F-5s out in the desert and caught the footage from chase planes and positions on the ground. As well as the film footage of the outside of the planes is, the footage from inside the cockpit(s), are, in my opinion, crappy and unrealistic. Although, given the technology of the time the movie was filmed, the director did ...
...in the show, came from Top Gun. If the scene was supposed to be at night, they changed the lighting in the film to make it seem as if it was taped at night, but really they just took the film shot during daylight for Top Gun and darkened it. The same goes for any scenes where the pilots are supposed to be going against Migs in the t.v. show, they took the old Top Gun F-5 footage and used it instead. The storyline, although entertaining, funny, action ...

Classic Arnie
Advantages: fully entertaining
Disadvantages: not long enough
...me and my friends from the first time we saw it. Arnie couldn't have played the Terminator any better than he did, and the movie is full of classic arnie quotes,there is pleny fo violence and action to keep you going. Ok maybe the effects aren't as good as some some of the more modern sci-fi movies out today but its got a gritty and dark feel to it that really improves the story. this was a great starting movie for the terminator series of movies,it ...

Who said romance was dead?
Advantages: Original, fast paced, a multitude of stars
Disadvantages: Too violent, swearing
True Romance is a fantastic film which boasts an all-star cast including the likes of Christopher Walken, Christian Slater, Dennis Hopper, Gary Oldman amongst others and the film is filled with such colourful characters and indeed dialogue which provides a somewhat memorable movie. The plot is that Chrisitan Slater is an affable and well-meaning comic book clerk who goes out on a date with a hooker, played by Patricia Arquette, and they both fall ...
...chemistry between the two stars in the film, and they set out on a wild road trip after Slater kills Drexyl, Arquette's former pimp and coming into possession of some narcotics owned by the Mob. Oldman hams it superbly as the somewhat larger than life and colourful pimp and rarely has there been such a character in a film who is so obnoxious, so unbelievably vile with no redeeming characteristics whatsoever that we cannot help but cheer when he meets ...
