Ah, MTV generation. This is where I categorize films like Terminator Salvation in. Michael Bay explosions upon explosions, Christian Bale yelling in every scene, and deafening cues from Danny Elfman's score. Everything's so loud, intense, bombastic. For some, this may be perfect. Meanwhile, there are those like me, who are stuck right in the middle - who is willing to accept a barely passable action thriller given there is some type of characteristic twist with the main character, John Connor. Unfortunately, there is none. John is boring, as is the story. But hey, at least there's plenty of explosions to go around, right? 7.0/10.
