the movie is good but not excellent. Christian Bale is a total miscast and there would be plenty of actors better for the role of John Connor than him, he does not feel like John Connor to me personally. What the heck was with the animation? There is better animation in X-men, Star Trek etc, most of the animated scenes looked like video game not like high class movie animation. Also the whole setting of the movie did not look BIG. As when you see the "terminator city" where the terminators are produce, it looks just SMALL and not really epic or scary at all. You also totally see when they use animation and when real metal and it did NOT look good.
