Not being a terminator fan I don't really feel qualified to comment too much on this film. Like the others this installment is instantly forgettable in my mind so I have no recollection of there plot in relation to this film. All I can say is its a harmless action film, just a series of fight scenes that got a bit boring to me but seems to have plenty of general action film appeal with lots of explosive scenes and a very basic plot in order to keep rolling them out. Only real comment I have is that some of the robots seemed to be a bit too coincidentally similar in appearance to transformers that I started to wonder about whether there had been some footage recycling going on.
