Plus points:

It's got the history and back story to genuinely further the story.
It stars Christian Bale

Minus Points:

It's directed by McG (Charlie's Angels)
Flogging a dead horse.

The trailer is up and has'nt exactly blown me away but I will still have to check it out:

Terminator Salvation - International Trailer, Worldwide Release Dates

Saw the movie last week. I was impressed, they did a great job of tying in with the story of old. Terminator with todays effects is awesome.

meh.....that's all I can say

Christian Bale should have been picked as John Connor....he ruined it for me

Plus....Connor is supposed to be the main character.....BUT HE HARDLY DID ANYTHING
it was all focused on that Marcus dude

Moon Bloodgood is hot!....she made it enjoyable

yeah this movie was pretty god awful, it looked more like an episode of a television show than it did a movie.

it was basically just a special effects fest with wooden dialogue and sub-par acting, and on top of that it made absolutely no sense whatsoever if you didn't take the 8 hours to watch the previous movies.

they explained everything in the opening credits....they did a little wrap up for people that haven't seen the previous films so I don't know what you are talking about. I can't believe you go to see a terminator movie for the acting? They aren't hoping to win an oscar for their performance...it's a summer blockbuster.
