Info

It's been 10 years since John Connor saved Earth from Judgment Day, and he's now living under the radar, steering clear of using anything Skynet can trace. That is, until he encounters T-X, a robotic assassin ordered to finish what T-1000 started. Good thing Connor's former nemesis, the Terminator, is back to aid the now-adult Connor … just like he promised.

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines Audience Reviews

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
pieterwesselsbiz Let's face it. The Terminator franchise has always been kitsch. It's "classic" kitsch but kitsch nonetheless. To expect something more from a franchise that started going down the cheesy sentimental route in its second entry is expecting way too much. These movies were meant to be fantastical thrill rides, and T3 is no exception to this rule. In fact, it's a solid blockbuster filled with great action, solid acting, (mostly) well timed humor and great special effects. I also thought it did a good enough job of justifying itself as a legitimate continuation of the universe. If you take this franchise too seriously you will be disappointed with this entry because you will be too preoccupied with how it's "supposed" to be.All in all, solid entertainment. Too bad T4 & 5 had to suck so bad.
RoboRabbit89 Arnold Schwarzenegger is back as The Terminator in "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines."When I was 13 back in 2003, I first saw this and was quite blown away by it. I had to a least see it twice, but a couple of years later I started to sour from it. Even my mom said it wasn't as good as the first two films, and I had to respectfully agree it's not.However, recently a couple of yeas ago I have found myself starting to like this film again.This may contain some spoilers.The year is 2003. The newest nemesis from the future arrives in the form of a woman this time, The TX.She is here to eliminate John Connor's Lieutenants to ensure the machines victory.Later the Terminator arrives and teams up with a now adult John, he informs him about the TX and how he is not sure if he can defeat her, along the way they find a young woman that is a veterinarian and that her fate is linked to john's.With time running out, they quickly learn the young woman's military father is unknowingly about to activate Sky-net it's self. Which actives the rise of the machines.A weak entry in the franchise but usually third parts are, let me into the positives here.First I would like to say Arnold Schwarzenegger was great in his return to his famous roll. Even though this version of the character is a little less friendly form his T2 counterpart. Arnold was still cool as always.The action scenes were very good here, lots of expositions and gun battles. The vehicle stunt work is amazing and quite impressive with very little CG. Even the CG work is still good even by today's standers.Now for some of the negatives, now this dose not apply to everything else in the movie, just some things.Kristana Loken is OK as the TX character, however I mostly blame the writers for this. They just made her a sexy character that's all brawn and no brains. Not that I don't like her being sexy because I do, It would have worked out better if she was more scary and intimidating.Nick Stahl is OK as John Connor, but I feel ether he wasn't written well enough or if it was the actor I can't tell.Claire Danes is pretty good as Kate Brewster, but she wasn't given enough to work with.It has it's flaws but, I still think I does the job, it's still entertaining. I know some people sort of hate it like I did for a time, but It's a cupcake. It's a nice frothy cupcake and if you look at it as that it can be a wonderful piece of froth.I give it a 5.3/10 it's not bad more of a so-so action thriller, but it can be a real good time in the right mind set. If your a fan of the franchise give it a look.
mynystry For some reason I didn't watch this until now, I knew it was crap.I only give them one extra star because actually they COULD have done a decent film; They somehow made up a story that could have worked out. But they were not able to execute it in a decent way.Hey idiots, it is the rise of the machines, the end of the world... The director couldn't nail it, he fell very, very short to the challenge.
Film Geek 123 I enjoyed this movie, it was a fun ride the whole way, it was engaging and get me interested and suspicious of what was to happen next. However, I couldn't help but feel the whole way through that it was just an updated version of Terminator 2 but with better effects. The actors were great, Arnold I loved again, but I feel it was too similar to T2 to gain a higher rating from me.
