It has been a long wait for me for this movie and as successful as its predecessors, I believe his movie had earned a lot of fan base. Now, I have to say I feel disappointed with this movie. Don't get me wrong, it is a good movie with a lot of actions. However, that is about it. The actors did a OK job but the movie did not provide them a lot of material to act. The special effect was brilliant but so as a lot of other Hollywood action/fiction movies. We all know what we are looking for is not the great acting and the so many movies possess great special effect and honest to say, it is getting old.
I don't think the acting job in TDK was as good as everyone says other than Heath Ledger's joker. Its special effect is great but it is just easier to show off when you have big robots running around. However, TDK is so much more enjoyable than T4. The main reason is the storyline. T4's storyline is very poor. It is OK to assume everyone coming to watch the movie already know the story but there are some details still need to be explained. I am not going to give spoilers but it has been long time I think the movie was too short. It simply focused on the actions too much and the whole movie was not only rushed. They were messy and confusing at some point. Well, the whole story was probably too simple to get confused but writers can do a lot more to make this movie much more enjoyable.
In terminator 1 and 2, actions and special effect was top of the league back in their time, but most importantly, the story was attractive and viewers wanted to see the end and feel touched. T3 loses the touch and basically loses originality as well. T4 creates a new era for terminator series but the story was just too poorly construct. The focus on the movie was wrong, at least for me, I went to cinema to watch the story involving with the robots, not the robots.
The movie had no urgency, no thrill, little excitement because of all the money invested in the special effect. It is sad to say, merely above average movie. I hope T5, T6 will take my advice and contains a much better story or I don't see this successful series continues its success any more.
