Terminator Geniesyths

Bill Paxton. The only actor who has ever been killed by a Terminator, an Alien and a Predator. What a legacy. And Schwarzenegger made him piss his pants in True Lies! Paxton didn't need Terminator Genesis as much as Arnold did.

Didn't notice there's already 4 reviews posted on RT, 3 of them negative. Not looking good.

This can't be worse than Salvation though, can it...?

Yeah they just changed it, Doomsday is right it's actually 4 negative reviews. They pretty much say the same thing that the film is too overly complicated and convoluted for it's own good and outside of Arnie the characters are one-dimensional and bland. They say Arnold is fun and does a good job given the material, but everything else in the film is run of the mill, including the action sequences which they say are (no surprise) limited by the PG-13 rating. This is looking like it's gonna be a major turd.

And yet... they'll still get my money.

Yeah, even though Arnold has actually been pretty good in the mediocre movies he's been in since his return, it's pretty clear that he and Stallone are definitely not top bill material anymore. They need to accept being supporting actors from here on.

Arnold was great as a supporting character in Escape Plan. As for Stallone, he has his ego to blame. They guy is a successful writer-director. He could have followed in Clint Eastwood's footsteps but he feels the need to play the lead in every movie. The only time Stallone didn't act in a movie he directed was the Saturday Night Fever sequel, Staying Alive, where he pretty much blew the lid on John Travolta being secretly gay.

"Escape Plan" was amusing but mediocre, though Arnold was terrific in it. Stallone played his typical character, but Arnold had a lot more fun with the role. I mean yeah, we're supposed to believe Arnold is an expert computer hacker, but still.

I was elected to lead, not to read.

Lance Henriksen wishes he were Bill Paxton.

He's not even Bill Pullman good.
