Suffering from post-traumatic stress from his previous encounter with a terminator several years earlier, an adult "John Connor" (Nick Stahl) has gone off the grid into hiding. As luck would have it, however, while stealing drugs from a nearby veterinary clinic, here runs into an old girlfriend named "Kate Brewster" (Claire Danes) who is rather appalled at how he turned out. Their meeting, however, is violently interrupted when a new model of the terminator series known as a "T-X" (played by Kristanna Loken) appears on the scene and begins tracking both of them. Fortunately, an obsolete "Terminator" (Arnold Schwarzenegger) again arrives to aid the two of them in their struggle to survive. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that, despite the fact that the overall plot was extremely similar to the first two films in this series, it was still somewhat entertaining overall. On that note, I particularly liked some of the more humorous aspects here and there. Admittedly, it seemed to run out of steam during the last 15 minutes or so but, even still, I enjoyed this movie for the most part, and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.
