Miss – Starring Christian Bale, Sam Worthington, Moon Bloodgood, Helena Bonham Carter, Anton Yelchin

Skynet has come to power and has destroyed most of mankind following a nuclear holocaust. For those who have survived, they must ban together to bring down the machines. They are led by John Conner.

It only took 10 minutes or so into the film when I realized how easy it was for Christian Bale to go crazy on someone who worked on the film. The reason being is that his character is intense, making it easy for him to yell at someone while still in character. Creepy, and yet amazing.

The main downfall of this film was the idea that we were going to see the link between the first film of the series and this film. Sadly, they decided to give us more background of the saga instead of tying it all together into one nice completed package. Because the original started in 1984 the graphics and CGI were not impressive. Now that we have the technology to make it more impressive, I find that going that route keeps the film from being true to itself.

Bottom Line: Why can’t this be the point of Termination for this series?

Action

Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi violence and action, and language.
