- SALVATION -

I'm going off to PD in two hours to have some fun with the girls for my bestfriend's Bachelorette Party. But since I still have time.. (sambil mengerling bag yang tak siap2 packing lagi..woopst!).

Come with me if you wanna live..

Well last night we went out for our usual movie-date for Terminator Salvation.

Terminator Salvation. Darker, grimmer and more stylistically single-minded than its two relatively giddy predecessors, Terminator Salvation boasts the kind of singular vision that distinguished the James Cameron original. The fourth in the celebrated sci-fi series opens and closes with humanity at war with the machines. In other words, this thing isn't going to end soon.

John Connor is the man fated to lead the human resistance against Skynet and its army of Terminators. But the future that Connor was raised to believe in is altered in part by the appearance of Marcus Wright, a stranger whose last memory is of being on death row. Connor must decide whether Marcus has been sent from the future, or rescued from the past. As Skynet prepares its final attack, Connor and Marcus both had to work together that takes them into the heart of Skynet’s operations, where they uncover the terrible secret behind the possible the end of mankind.

I have to say that Terminator Salvation is not just a good movie, its a fun movie. It has great characters, great acting and mind-blowing visual effects. As much as I expected Christian Bale to be the highlight of this movie really is Sam Worthington who shines brightest (alaaaaaaaaa...)

Although it has its cliche moments Terminator Salvation is a great film that pays great homage to the earlier movies with alot of very subtle references throughout the film that link this movie to the past 3 films. You get to see alot of small things that die hard (not me!hahah!) fans will recognize from Terminator 1, and 2. I did not see alot from Terminator 3 (because I chose to not to watch that 3rd installment) but there were some moments that show elements from T3.

Deep, dark and fulfilling this film is worth checking out. Although a bit weak at points overall the film is intense and the opening 30minutes are easily the best opening minutes of an action sci fi film I have seen in a long time. Go see it. If your a fan or not of the other Terminator films you will still enjoy this movie.

My favourite scene? Of course the moment Christian Bale got on the Mototerminator and just fled the scene. Coolness..*drool*

This is John Connor. If you're listening to this, you are the Resistance.

Have a great weekend everybody! =)
