Terminator Salvation

McG reboots the Terminator Franchise.

Christian Bale plays John Connor the resistance leader in the war against the machines. The year is 2018, the world has been destroyed in Judgement day and the remnants of humanity fight against Skynet.

For a summer blockbuster it's a hell of a lot of fun. Giant robots, explosions, gun battles etc etc

As a Terminator film it's better than No. 3, but not quite up to the first two movies. Sure it has lots of cool references (GnR song from T2, "Come with me if you want to live" and one kick ass "cameo") to keep most of the fans happy, but with a 12a rating it's not quite the post apocalyptic horror that they hinted at way back in the original.

Good popcorn munching fun though.

8/10
