Terrible, the story isn't even internally consistent, let alone constant with the previous Terminator movies.

Basically a dud. Clair Danes is wasted. You know a film's in trouble when the best performance comes from the actor who gets the fewest lines. Clunky dialogue, weak ending.

Just as well Arnie was in this - liked the humour and references to the previous movies.

This third in the series is not up there with the first two, but still worth watching for Arnie and the incredible action and stunt sequences. This director seems to try and play a bit too much on the "one liners" and they often seem forced and fall flat.

Previous reviews read rated this film as less satisfying and punchy than the Terminator 2. However, the special effects were great and it was a very good thrill a minute movie. Highly recommended and a great end to the trilogy.

The last of the Terminator Trilogy, not quite as good as the brilliant second movie but still a must see for fans of the series and a fitting end for The Terminator. Excellent.

Lacking a bit of depth in the plot compared to 'Terminator 2' but an excellent film all the same.

I was expecting more from this sequel, and was flatly disappointed, the one liners and b grade acting could really have gone up a notch. But as has been said before the special effects are worth viewing.

Just cashing in on the franchise, but worth a look just for the stunts and the FX.

The scenario that is portrayed is all too plausible. With one qualification....................I don't think we would win.

Terminator 3 is the best movie of all time! Do yourself a favour, WATCH IT! And all you people who vote "don't bother", stick your head in the sand.

Disappointing. Not a patch on the first two. More action than story.

A Terminator could drive a double bogey crane through the holes in the plot, but who cares? It's sci-fi action thriller fun. I was disappointed when I heard that (one of my favourite directors) James Cameron wasn't directing this one, but Jonathon Mostow has clearly gone one better. The new Terminatrix is terrific, and Arny always seems to deliver, which is a neat trick for someone who is only capable of acting himself. Turn off your brain, turn up the sound and enjoy the action.

A typical "Arnie" Action movie. If you have followed the Terminator movies, then it's worth a look but don't expect much dialogue or emotional attachment to the characters. Some scenes are so busy with noise that you have to turn on subtitles to understand what is being said! The best part of the movie is of course the action! If you like a little blood & guts, and a lot of shooting and crash scenes, this one is for you!

Terminator 3 is the action packed movie that we have come to expect from from its predecessors.It is a fast paced high-octane movie but you may not enjoy it if you value a good storyline in a movie.

A little dissapointing, I think the The Terminator has termnated ! The story line is stretched a bit but the special effects are worth a look. Its entertaining, but I wouldn't queue to watch it.
Glen
says
Ordinary and a bit flat ( I saw T2 in California at Lucas THX Cinema and it was a great event and Movie ) , Arnie should have got James Cameron back to direct this one , maybe he was to busy counting votes for Governator of California . Plot Definately leads into Terminator 4 Movie and I think Arnies role will be almost completely CGI in T4.
Bernard
says
No another Terminastor without a plot or story line of any interest, except we have a female terminator in this one - give it a miss unless your ARE A BIG terminator fan.
Dan

David
says
If you have a good sound system or like the one-liners from the other Terminator movies (of which there are plenty in this film) then worth watching.
Sean
says
better than expected
Brenda
says
Not normally my genre but have enjoyed T1 and T2. This didn't disappoint for all the reasons that the other two were enjoyable. Good special effects and fast paced action.
Reminisc
says
Entertaining action movie, though not the type of thing I'd watch more than once.
