Terminator 10/10 Love the 80's flair
Terminator 2 10/10 My favorite of the quad.
Terminator 3 7/10 Wasn't terrible, it tried to remain faithful to the lore and that's very much appreciated, plus the ending was perfect.
Prisoners
7/10
Watched this at the weekend also. I would give it an 8/10. Really enjoyed it. Has one of those good yet frustrating endings.
I liked it a lot. The actors were fantastic. Story was good.
But what slightly put me off was, a) one too many riddles to solve at the end (e.g.: Why were there snakes in the trunks, who the hell was Bob Taylor + the fact that David Dastmalchian only acts crazy in movies ) and, b) Detective Loki didn't seems to be much of a detective, maybe I was expecting 'Batman', but he came across very slow in uncovering stuff.
I think this point was to illustrate how the restrictions and boundaries placed on the police to ensure that they are operating within legal means can sometimes be a hinderance to achieving justice and uncovering the truth. The only way hugh Jackman got anywhere was by pursuing his own form of justice in a less than conventional way. You could see how Loki was getting frustrated with the restrictions placed on him by his boss.
They Live - 8.5 / 10
Great film. I was actually impressed with Roddy Piper's performance too for the most part - & the alley fight!!!
Obey......
I'm always staggered when someone hasn't seen They Live. Especially because alot of people can probably quote it without having seen it and not even realise it. Duke Nukem gets too much credit.
Pretty much yeah, I'd go as far as to give it an 8/10, it's really not a bad movie, what I like is that the villains in the franchise are always fresh, and that bathroom fight scene was both funny and badass.I've always liked Terminator 3. I think it ets a bad rap quite unfairly. To expect it to surpass T2, one of the greatest movies ever made, is unfair. What it does do successfully is add to the Terminator story without going too far and, like you said, has an excellent ending.
