With a reported budget of $172 million, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines starts in high gear and never slows down. The apocalyptic "Judgment Day" of T2 was never prevented, only postponed: John Connor (Nick Stahl, replacing T2's Edward Furlong), now 22 and disconnected from society, is being pursued yet again, this time by the advanced T-X, a sleek "Terminatrix" (coldly expressionless Kristanna Loken) programmed to stop Connor from becoming the savior of humankind. Originally programmed as an assassin, a disadvantaged T-101 cyborg (Arnold Schwarzenegger, bidding fond farewell to his signature role) arrives from the future to join Connor and his old acquaintance Kate (Claire Danes) in thwarting the T-X's relentless pursuit. The plot presents a logical fulfillment of T2 prophesy, disposing of Connor's mother (Linda Hamilton is sorely missed) while computer-driven machines assume control, launching a nuclear nightmare that Connor must survive. With Breakdown and U-571 serving as worthy rehearsals for this cautionary epic of mass destruction, director Jonathan Mostow wisely avoids any stylistic connection to James Cameron's Terminator classics; instead he's crafted a fun, exciting popcorn thriller, humorous and yet still effectively nihilistic, and comparable to Jurassic Park III in returning the Terminator franchise to its potent B-movie roots. --Jeff Shannon
Product Description
A decade has passed since John Connor (NICK STAHL) helped prevent Judgment Day and save mankind from mass destruction. Now 25 Connor lives "off the grid" - no home no credit cards no cell phone and no job. No record of his existence. No way he can be traced by Skynet - the highly developed network of machines that once tried to kill him and wage war on humanity. Until out of the shadows of the future steps the T-X (KRISTANNA LOKEN) Skynet's most sophisticated cyborg killing machine yet. Sent back through time to complete the job left unfinished by her predecessor the T-1000 this machine is as relentless as her human guise is beautiful. Now Connor's only hope for survival is the Terminator (ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER) his mysterious former assassin. Together they must triumph over the technologically superior T-X and forestall the looming threat of Judgment Day - or face the apocalypse and the fall of civilization as we know it.Running Time: 110 min.System Requirements:Running Time 109 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating: R UPC: 085392772223

T3 was disapointing for me, it didnt have that same flavor from T1 and T2, sort of cheesy feeling. Cheapy flavor. its likes coca cola, and other sodas tryin to imitate such as pepsi. it doesnt have the same ingredients. not a good movie.
 It Lacked the Most Important Terminator Element--James Cameron February 14, 2010
E. Charles
I had hoped that Blu-ray technology would bolster my opinion of this movie. I still found it very lackluster. The only positive attribute of the film was T-X. James Cameron could have made this movie another Terminator masterpiece. Without his cinematic genius behind the camera, it was just another stagnant sci-fi film with an excessive hollywood budget.
 Same as T2 February 7, 2010
T. E. Webb (Florida, USA)
Had the basic plot as T2 but with new actors and a different twist. I am giving it Four stars because the updated special effects helped give the movie that needed feel. Definitely worth a look, if you like the Terminator series.
Follow up on T2 February 7, 2010

It's a good follow up on T2 considering it's missing the major actors, Arnold and Linda Hamilton. They could have had other Terminators other than old video of Arnold animated in fight scenes. While the special effects aren't impressive to wipe out the story they hold their own. Some special effects seem very early Transformer like.
On Blu-Ray : good buy February 2, 2010
ANDY T. Siing (malaysia)
I got my copy few days ago. Don't expect too much from this 2003 movie and this Blu-ray is just reasonable. Not too much different from my older DVD copy, expect better sounds and sharper. But for under $10, a good buy indeed.
