Hasta La What?


Woo! The end has begun! The war will begin on 2012! I'm going to laugh my head off on that day if the greatest AI computers can come up with is some Boss on a hard game. 

But still.... I watched the movie. Paid 10 dollars for the ticket. After all, it was... the Terminator. I wanted to watch some testosterone laden action. And it wasn't bad. I think it would be something worth a download. Or a rental come to that, but it wasn't a movie that was worth fishing out a hard earned 50Rm for. 

But still, If you want to finish that Terminator or Arnie Shwartzy collection of yours, why not? Go right ahead. 

This movie had little of a story line to be honest. You kinda had this bugging feelings that the humans would live and the ever so cool robots with their indestructible armour plates and intense plasma cannons would somehow get squashed. Even though that itch of a feeling would be there, at times you'd simply get distracted by the amount of explosions going on screen. Not to mention the menacing metallic skulls of the terminators moving in for a kill. 

Story wise.... Nyah. The story line felt like fillers in between the action sequences. But seriously, who watches terminator for the story line? One doesn't ask Arnold or the Terminator to read them a nightime story. Unless they're looking for something laughable. "Van Dae, Da Wolf Said, Hasta La Vesta Babee and Blew Da Place to Hell! Den Da GUd TerMiNator Get Red Ridding Hud to Get DOUN! Den he make Da wolf go BOUM! End Story!"

 The story line felt like pauses in between pieces of action. Terminator's salvation came by using humongous robots and intense action sequences. Mine was when the tin-can-who-thinks-he's human is on the run from killer robots with Connor's dad. Along the way, they meet a truly epic hunk of brainy metal.  Couldn't help me from not thinking about C&C3 Nod's Redeemer, or whatever you call it. And there was this incredible part where ____________________ then he _______the door opened and____ the camera started from the bottom and then____ you realised that_______ and when that scene was playing, the crowd in the cinema just started applauding! 

Not a bad film.
