for once, BOTH the news serials i read on a mostly-daily basis agreed on a movie review... (unlike with horton hears a who and made of honor... and most other movies but i'm too uninterested to post about them.)
anyway... both media outlets have got out of their way to agree and pan the newest installment of the terminator series - Terminator Salvation. anyhoo, here's what they have to say:
'Terminator Salvation' too robotic
3 out of 5 stars
kevin williamson tries to find a bright side but his opening statement leaves you with no hope of seeing the sun...
Unrelenting, inhuman and gloomy as gun metal, Terminator Salvation feels like it could've been directed -- or automated -- by a cyborg T-800.
what a well aimed kick in the pants to director McG...
Terminator Salvation: It's back, and it's bad
1.5 out of 4 stars
the best part about this 'review' is the bashing the general public gives rob salem for repeatedly saying how dreadful the movie is but never actually saying what he thought was bad... it's kinda like he watched a collection of trailers for the movie, decided that he didn't want to like it and slapped together a review...
but these critics are not alone in their dislike for the movie... a quick 'google' of reviews for it brings up headlines such as the following:
Terminator Salvation: Resist
Soulless and shiny, the fourth Terminator fails to find a human spirit
The weakest film in the Terminator series
Salvation is a cold, blunt summer movie misfire
and that's too bad because i was sort of looking forward to see this one... i guess i'll just have to settle for seeing Wolverine or Star Trek before they leave theatres.

i would skip wolverine if I were you. Boring movie; very standard xmen movie with nothing of interest.
