Anything starring Christian Bale is A-ok in my books, even before I’ve seen it. American Psycho is one of my all time favourite movies and I cannot help but gravitate towards all his works.
T:S is awesome. It’s the post-apocalyptic, doom-mongering, sci-fi, chase movie of the year. McG has done a fantastic job of injecting the ‘contemporary’ terminator models with the same level of malevolence and fear that we remembered from the original Terminator movie. Bale rocks as Connor, the young Kyle Reece is goddamn awesome and somehow has exactly the same voice tone/dialect that Michael Bhein had so many years ago.
It’s a clever action flick, combining all elements of Terminator lore into a non-stop hardcore metal to metal mash-em-up that had me wooing and cooing at each and every adrenaline filled scene. The SFX is unquestionably amongst the best I’ve ever seen, including Transformers 2.
There’s also one scene that practically made me poop and wee my pants – it’s so utterly cool but to disclose it now would class as a massive movie spoiler, so please, go and see this.
